What participants receive

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

  • Delphi questionnaireOther

    An invitation email, including a link to the survey, will be sent to the panel of experts in the field of radical right colectomy. The Delphi questionnaire will be administered via www.surveymonkey.com.

    In the first survey, panel members will agree on surgical steps, definition of surgical steps and nomenclature for radical right colectomy In subsequent surveys, panel expert will agree on a common definition, nomenclature and reporting for right colectomy. Multiple rounds will be conducted until consensus is reached. After each round, the study team will calculate the agreement and distribution of responses. Likert responses will be dichotomized with positive values indicating agreement and neutral or negative values indicating disagreement.

    For the questions that do not reach a consensus of more than 70% in the first round or need further explanation, additional rounds of the survey may be performed.
