Filter by:Different studies showed large variation between care processes in multiple diseases, this leads to large variation in outcomes. Better adherence to evidence-based guidelines for these diseases can reduce this variation and can improve the health outcomes. Ventral mesh rectopexy has gained popularity in Europe to treat different rectal prolapse syndromes. This procedure has been shown to achieve acceptable anatomic results with low recurrence rates, few complications, and improvements of both constipation and fecal incontinence. However, there is limited data on the care process and outcomes. Moreover, there is no insight in the variation between different centers for patients undergoing ventral mesh rectopexy. This study aims to map the variation in care for patients undergoing ventral mesh rectopexy in Flemish hospitals and to get an overview about the variation within and between these hospitals. Hereby, this will be a repeat of the studies for colorectal cancer, fragility hip fractures, stroke and breast cancer surgery.
The goal of this observational study is to gather data about surgical procedures for rectal prolapse in adult human subjects. The main question it aims to answer is: • Which procedure is best for treating external rectal prolapse? Participants will: - be included if they can consent to participation - be offered standard care treatment, as no interventions will be done - be asked to answer relevant questionnaires within 3 months prior to the surgery for rectal prolapse - be asked to answer the same questionnaires 6 and 12 months postoperative - optionally answer the questionnaires again at 3 and 1 year postoperative, but this is not part of the existing funding body
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of using the Single Port (SP) robot (daVinci, Intuitive Surgical) to perform single port robotic colon surgery and transanal robotic surgery. The hypothesis of the study is that the SP robot will prove a safe effective modality to perform these procedures.
