Upper Gastrointestinal Perforations: a Nationwide Registry-based Study
Sponsor: Region Stockholm
Summary
The primary aim of this project is to increase the knowledge about how perforations in the esophagus, stomach and small intestine are treated on a national level. Furthermore, secondary aims include assessment of how different treatment options and type of treating facilities relate to patient survival. This will be done by studying information about all adult patients with an upper GI perforation treated in Sweden during 2005-2023.
