Filter by:Observational cohort study of adult patients undergoing colorectal surgery at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital in Addis Abeba for 3 months.
The aim of this single-center retrospective cohort study is to explore the effect of late adaptation of an ERAS protocol in a high-volume colorectal surgical unit. The primary endpoint is the surgical outcome measured by early postoperative complications, defined by the comprehensive complications index. Secondary endpoints include amongst others LOS (length of stay), cost analysis, short-term follow-up in the ERAS group.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of stoma care training given at home via videoconferencing after discharge on the self-efficacy and compliance with stoma of individuals with stoma. In addition to the main purpose, it is aimed to determine whether stoma care education given via video conference at home has an effect on individuals with stoma to perform their own stoma care.
The investigators included all patients who were subjected to laparoscopic colorectal surgery at investigators' center between ( December 2019 to December 2021) for benign & malignant conditions. sample size was 50 patients , divided into 2 equal groups . Group 1: included 25 patients who were subjected to enhance recovery program after laparoscopic colorectal surgery . Group 2: included 25 patients who were subjected to traditional way - nothing by mouth until the resolution of ileus, then a fluid diet, followed by a regular diet after laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
To analysis surgical outcome between robotic and laparoscopy colon and rectal surgery. Retrospective case-control study of single institute.
Our aim was to compare 2 postoperative complication scoring systems in predicting length of hospital stay and in-hospital costs after colorectal resections.
Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is an α-glycoprotein synthesized in the liver. BchE's serum level decreases in many clinical conditions such as acute and chronic liver damage, inflammation, injury and infections, and malnutrition. The Investigators prospectively evaluate patients undergoing elective procedures for colorectal diseases. Blood samples are collected preoperatively (at day 0), post-operatively in the recovery room (day 1), and on the subsequent four days (days 2, 3, 4, and 5) for assessment of BChE, C-reactive protein, and white blood cell concentrations. The same surgical team operates all patients and is blinded to the study. Patients are monitored for post-operative infection by using standard laboratory and clinical methods. If surgical site infection (SSI) is suspected the wound is swabbed and empirical antibiotics are started. The aim of the current trial is to study whether BChE is a reliable marker for the presence of SSI in patients undergoing colorectal surgery.
The complication rate in colorectal surgery is high and shows a large variance depending on the patient and the treating surgeon. The primary aim of the presented study is to evaluate the introduction of a colorectal bundle to reduce the complication rate in left sided colorectal resections. The colorectal bundle is a catalog of measures consisting of several items These are for example preoperative risk stratification, antibiotic and mechanical bowel preparation and preoperative showering. The primary endpoint will be the complication rate measured as the comprehensive clinical index (CCI) within 30 days. Investigators will include patients that undergo elective or emergency left sided colorectal surgery.
Investigating people with bowel symptoms uses a test that detects traces of blood in the stools, the FIT test. There are many possible reasons for positive tests. A few people have cancer. However, most participants with symptoms don't have any serious bowel disease but have benign problems such as piles or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It is very difficult to diagnose on symptoms alone, those participants who have serious bowel disease and those who do not. After a positive test, people are invited for colonoscopy - a sort of articulated tube that is passed up the bowel. Most people invited for colonoscopy don't have cancer. Only about 5% of those with positive FIT tests have cancer. About 25% have other bowel diseases, but most have nothing serious wrong at all. So they have the inconvenience and discomfort of colonoscopy but don't get any benefit from it. The investigators want to try adding another test, the volatile organic compound (VOC) test, to see if the investigators can separate those with positive FIT tests who do have something wrong, from those who don't. The VOC test uses a urine sample. Using both tests might also be better for detecting cancer. FIT alone misses about 20%. So the investigators think that using both tests might not only be better for detecting cancer, but also might mean that a lot of people will avoid having to have colonoscopy. This study will recruit 1,819 participants with bowel symptoms from NHS trusts in the UK. They will provide stool samples for FIT and urine for VOC analysis. They will have colonoscopy to get a definite diagnosis. Then the investigators will look at their FIT and VOC test results to see if in future, people with both tests negative.
To compare the analgesic impact of intravenous perioperative lidocaine infusion with preoperative liposomal bupivacaine TAP block in colorectal surgery. This is to be integrated into the standard ERAS protocol currently utilized at Carolinas Medical Center. Primary endpoints will be postoperative pain as measured by verbal rate scale (VRS), postoperative morphine equivalents utilized per day, and over 30 days. Secondary endpoints will include date of ambulation, return of bowel function (first flatus), tolerance of goal diet, incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting during hospital stay, length of stay (hospital and PACU), post-operative morbidity (Clavien-Dindo, related to both anesthesia and surgery), cost of hospitalization (operative, PACU, postoperative stay, and total) and quality of life on follow up.
