Low Stable Pressure Pneumoperitoneum in Colorectal Surgery : An Ideal Stage 2b Prospective International Cohort Study (CROSS STUDY)
The objective of this prospective, international cohort is to incorporate the low stable pressure (using Airseal Insufflator) approach and its associated parameters into the early rehabilitation program after colorectal surgery so as to shorten hospitalization up to the ambulatory care and reduce postoperative pain and opioid consumption.
Inclusion: Age ≥ 18 years old; Colonic resection (right or left, subtotal or total) performed for benign or malignant pathology; Rectal resection with or without stoma for benign or malignant pathology; Laparoscopic or robotic procedure; Surgery under low stable pressure pneumoperitoneum with AirSeal; Patient who benefits by medicare system; Oral agreement after reading information letter.
Exclusion: Associated resection (except appendectomy or liver biopsy); Laparotomy procedure; Transverse colectomy; Emergency procedure; Pelvic sepsis; Pregnancy or breast feeding period; Legal incapacity or physical, psychological social or geographical status interfering with the patient's ability to agree to participate in the study; Persons deprived of liberty or under guardianship.
