Summary

Over 63-90% of patients develop peritoneal adhesions after abdominal or pelvic surgery. Which makes it the most common complication after abdominal or pelvic surgery. Adhesions comprise a lifelong risk of adhesion related complications.The most frequent emergency complication of adhesion is an episode of adhesive small bowel obstruction (ASBO). Over 1 in 5 patients experiences at least 1 episode of ASBO in the 10 years following initial abdominal surgery. Despite the high incidence of ASBO, diagnosis and treatment of an episode of ASBO varies greatly between hospitals and even between doctors. Until now, optimal treatment patterns are unknown. The aim of this study is mapping of care for patients with a suspected episode of ASBO. With the collected data new hypothesis will be generated for the ideal diagnostic and therapeutic workflow for patients with a suspicion of an episode of ASBO.
