Oxygen delivery during surgery linked to leak risk in colon cancer patients
NCT ID NCT07099820
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 100 adults having laparoscopic surgery for colon cancer to see if the amount of oxygen delivered to tissues during the procedure affects the risk of a leak where the bowel is reconnected. Researchers measured oxygen delivery using a non-invasive monitor. The goal was to better understand how to prevent this serious complication.
