Summary

This study tests a 'fast-track' recovery plan for children aged 2 to 17 who had surgery for a burst appendix. The goal is to see if they can go home sooner without raising the risk of problems like infection or needing another surgery. About 772 children will take part, and their health will be checked for 30 days after leaving the hospital.
