ClinConnect Summary

The WOFOR-C1 clinical trial is studying a new way to help patients recover after laparoscopic colorectal surgery, which is a minimally invasive procedure to remove part of the colon or rectum. The main idea is to encourage patients to walk out of the operating room and back to their hospital room right after surgery, as long as they feel comfortable and strong enough. This trial aims to see if this early mobilization can improve recovery times and overall outcomes for patients.

To participate in this study, you must be between 18 and 65 years old and scheduled for a specific type of surgery called laparoscopic colectomy or rectectomy. You also need to be in good general health, as determined by your doctor. Throughout the trial, participants will be monitored closely to ensure their safety and comfort during the walking process. This innovative approach hopes to make recovery easier and faster for those undergoing this type of surgery, and your involvement could help shape future recovery practices.
