New study tracks blood markers to catch Post-Surgery problems early

NCT ID NCT07509710

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study will follow 1,500 adults who have had gastrointestinal surgery to see if changes in routine blood tests can help doctors detect complications earlier. By looking at how markers like white blood cell count and C-reactive protein change over time, researchers hope to create a tool that guides decisions on when to do further testing or start treatment. The goal is to reduce unnecessary procedures and improve recovery.
