Summary
This study tested a new plan to manage patients who have high levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) after surgery for colorectal cancer. High CRP can signal a dangerous leak where the intestine was reconnected. The goal was to see if a proactive care plan could help these patients leave the hospital sooner. 105 adults with high CRP after surgery took part, but those with signs of severe infection were excluded.
