Thermodynamic Model of Hyperthermia in Humans Undergoing HIPEC

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a well-established alternative for patients with peritoneal surface malignancies. Although HIPEC has a predetermined protocol to manage body temperature, the resultant bladder and core-body temperatures are highly variable and unstable in clinical practice. Such results highlight an incomplete understanding of the thermodynamic processes during HIPEC in humans. Previous clinical and animal investigations have studied abdominal hyperthermia, but a full human model incorporating patient variables, heat delivery, and the impact of the circulatory system and anesthesia in HIPEC has not been established. This project seeks to develop and validate a computational thermodynamic model using prospective real-world data from humans undergoing HIPEC surgery. It is hypothesized that by incorporating patient, anesthetic, and perfusion-related variables in a thermodynamic model, the temperatures inside and outside the abdomen during HIPEC can be predicted.
