Objective: To investigate the feasibility of SDD protocol with postdischarge follow-up using a mobile phone app in patients undergoing elective minimally-invasive colectomy.
Summary Of Background Data: Discharge before gastrointestinal recovery and use of mobile health technology for remote follow-up may allow for SDD after minimally-invasive colectomy within an ERP.
Methods: Adult patients undergoing elective laparoscopic colectomy or loop ileostomy reversal from February 2020 to November 2020 were screened for eligibility. Patients were eligible if they lived within a 30-minute drive from the hospital, had an adequate support system at home, and owned a smart phone. Patients were discharged from the recovery room on the day of surgery based on set criteria with postdischarge remote follow-up using a mobile application. Feasibility was defined as discharge on the day of surgery without emergency department (ED) visit or readmission within the first 3 days. 30-day complications, ED visits, and readmissions were compared to a non-SDD historical cohort (May 2019-March 2020) also remotely followed-up using the same mobile phone app (standard ERP group).
Results: A total of 48 patients were recruited to SDD, of which 77% were discharged on the day of surgery without subsequent ED visit in the first 72 hours. There were 11 patients that could not be discharged, including 7 for failure of discharge criteria and 4 for intraoperative complications/concerns. Overall 30-day complications in the SDD group (17%) was similar to the standard ERP group (15%, P = 0.813). ED visits (SDD10% vs standard ERP8%, P = 0.664) and readmissions (6% vs 4%, P = 0.681) were also similar.
Conclusions And Relevance: Findings from this study support the feasibility of a SDD protocol in select patients undergoing minimally-invasive colorectal resection. SDD colectomy protocols may represent the next evolution of ERP and postoperative recovery.

Liver cancer poses a global health challenge with limited therapeutic options. Notably, the limited success of current therapies in patients with primary liver cancers (PLCs) may be attributed to the high heterogeneity of both hepatocellular carcinoma (HCCs) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCAs). This heterogeneity evolves over time as tumor-initiating stem cells, or cancer stem cells (CSCs), undergo (epi)genetic alterations or encounter microenvironmental changes within the tumor microenvironment.

Background: Ulcerative colitis patients who undergo ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) without mucosectomy may develop inflammation of the rectal cuff (cuffitis). Treatment of cuffitis typically includes mesalamine suppositories or corticosteroids, but refractory cuffitis may necessitate advanced therapies or procedural interventions. This review aims to summarize the existing literature regarding treatments options for cuffitis.

Intravenous fluid is administered during high-risk surgery to optimize stroke volume (SV). To assess ongoing need for fluids, the hemodynamic response to a fluid bolus is evaluated using a fluid challenge technique. The Acumen Assisted Fluid Management (AFM) system is a decision support tool designed to ease the application of fluid challenges and thus improve fluid administration during high-risk surgery.

The surgical risk is higher for obese patients undergoing laparoscopic left hemicolectomy. To enhance the surgical safety and efficacy for obese patients, we have innovatively integrated the advantages of various surgical approaches to modify a pancreas-guided C-shaped surgical procedure. The safety and quality were assessed through a retrospective analysis.
