What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Arrangement of small intestine order before close the abdomenProcedure or surgery

    After the completion of laparoscopic-assisted colorectal cancer surgery, the chief surgeon performed laparoscopic small bowel arrangement before closing the abdomen, straightening the small bowel from the colon-small bowel anastomosis or the ileocecal valve to the ligament of Trevor, and restoring the original position of the small bowel. Afterward, close the abdomen.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. First flatus time after surgery

    The investigators will record the time from the end of the surgery to the patient's first flatus time by hours.

    Measured: 50 hours

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Time to liquid diet

    The investigators will record the time from the end of the surgery to the patient's first diet time by hours.

    Measured: 70 hours

  2. Postoperative hospital stay

    The investigators will record the time from the end of the surgery to the patient's decharge time by days.

    Measured: 30 days

  3. Paralytic ileus time after surgery

    The investigators will record the time after surgery if the patient's first fluid time is more than seven days after the operation.

    Measured: 30 days

  4. First defecate time after surgery

    The investigators will record the time from the end of the surgery to the patient's first defecate time by hours.

    Measured: 70 hours
