First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study observed 193 adults who had emergency laparoscopic appendix surgery for uncomplicated appendicitis. Researchers wanted to see how closely hospitals followed a specific recovery plan called RICA (an ERAS pathway) and whether early discharge within 24 hours was safe and feasible. They collected data on complications, hospital stay length, readmissions, and patient satisfaction, without changing any usual care.
