Could better oxygen monitoring prevent dangerous surgery leaks?

NCT ID NCT07099820

Summary

This study aimed to understand if low oxygen delivery to tissues during surgery increases the risk of a dangerous leak at the surgical connection site after colon cancer removal. Researchers observed 100 patients undergoing planned, minimally invasive colon cancer surgery, using special non-invasive finger monitors to track oxygen delivery. The goal was to gather knowledge to potentially improve future surgical safety and recovery.
