New recovery plan helps kids heal faster after gut surgery
NCT ID NCT07504549
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a special care plan called ERAS to help children recover more quickly after planned intestinal surgery. The plan includes steps to reduce stress from surgery, manage pain better, and start eating sooner. Researchers will compare 60 children using the new plan to a group of children who had standard care in the past. The goal is to see if the ERAS plan is safe and leads to shorter hospital stays and fewer complications.
