Comparing low and standard abdominal pressure during robot-assisted colorectal cancer surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effects of low intraabdominal pressure (8 mmHg) versus standard pressure (12 mmHg) during robot-assisted surgery for colorectal cancer. The study focuses on assessing patient wellbeing post-surgery by measuring quality of recovery, pain levels, and analgesic consumption. Participants will complete the Quality of Recovery 15 questionnaire and report pain using a visual analog scale at various intervals after surgery. The goal is to determine if lower pressure improves recovery outcomes for patients undergoing this type of surgery.
