Summary
This study looks at whether electroacupuncture can help people recover bowel function more quickly after minimally invasive colorectal cancer surgery. About 240 adults will be randomly assigned to receive real acupuncture, a sham (placebo) version, or standard care alone. The main goal is to see if acupuncture reduces the time to the first bowel movement and eases post-surgery discomfort.
