Early Discharge After Colorectal Surgery
RECUPERA-C Study: Protocol: Personalised and Controlled Rapid Recovery After Colorectal Surgery
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 18 Sept 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
RECUPERA-C is a prospective observational pilot study evaluating the feasibility and safety of an early discharge strategy within 48 hours after minimally invasive colorectal surgery. The study will assess whether patients can meet predefined clinical and functional discharge criteria, and will identify factors that may prevent early discharge. C-reactive protein and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio will also be evaluated as exploratory markers of postoperative complications.
