First seen May 09, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study examined whether measuring C-reactive protein (CRP) levels three days after colorectal surgery can help predict how well patients will recover by day five. Researchers followed 174 adults who had planned colon surgery without a temporary or permanent stoma. The goal was to see if CRP levels could forecast recovery milestones like pain control, bowel function, and mobility, potentially helping doctors plan hospital stays more accurately.
