A Multicenter Retrospective Review of Management Strategies in Small Bowel Obstruction

Overview

The objective of the study is to review performance of water soluble contrast study in patients admitted with Small Bowel Obstruction(SBO), will improve quality and safety, and decrease length of stay and morbidity.

Performance of contrast study has been a part of the protocols at multiple institutions of the southwestern surgical congress. Plan to perform a retrospective review of management protocols at these institutions. Wish to know whether the implementation of a standardized, protocol-driven pattern of practice involving the performance of water soluble contrast study in patients admitted with SBO, will improve quality and safety, and decrease length of stay and morbidity. The objective of the study is to review performance of water soluble contrast study in patients admitted with SBO, will improve quality and safety, and decrease length of stay and morbidity. Performance of contrast study has been a part of the protocols at multiple institutions of the southwestern surgical congress. Hypothesize that implementation of a standardized, protocol-driven pattern of practice involving the performance of water soluble contrast study in patients admitted with SBO, will improve quality and safety, and decrease length of stay and morbidity.
