Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study to evaluate how well an online format would work for the first post-operative visit after a patient undergoes colon and rectal surgery. This online format is integrated into Epic MyChart. This study aims to determine whether the online format is feasible and acceptable to patients and surgeons as a standard post-operative visit.


Clinical Trial Description

Participants were asked to complete a post-operative survey using an online patient portal, EPIC MyChart, after elective abdominal colon or rectal resection. Participants were also asked to do upload a picture of their incisions. Colorectal surgeons reviewed responses/pictures and communicated concerns/recommendations via the same patient portal. At the in-person follow-up visit, both patients and colorectal surgeons completed a satisfaction survey regarding the both visit types. ;
