NCT ID NCT07176715

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether it is safe for some patients to go home the same day after colon surgery. Researchers will track 150 adults aged 18-70 who have robotic-assisted colon removal. The main goal is to see how many need to be readmitted within 30 days, along with other complications like infection or bleeding.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that same-day colectomy is safe for certain patients, reducing hospital stays and healthcare costs.

What could go wrong

This is a small, single-center study with only 150 participants, so results may not apply broadly. There is a risk of complications like infection or readmission.
