No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Enhanced recovery programme (ERP) includes early postoperative mobilization and ambulation the day of surgery. Data suggest that orthostatic symptoms prevent a large number of patients from ambulating the day of surgery. The investigators plan to include 50 patients scheduled for colorectal surgery and bariatric surgery in an ERP. A 6-min walk test (6MWT) will be performed before surgery, 3 hour after the end of surgery, and 24 hour after surgery. The day of surgery a 2-min walk test will be realized.
