Colorectal resections during the COVID-19 pandemic: a national survey of practice during first lockdown
CONCLUSIONS: Our study demonstrates variability in the MDT management of colorectal cancer during the initial COVID-19 lockdown, incorporating adaptive patient behaviour and initially limited data on oncological safety profiles leading to challenging decision-making.PMID:34941446 | DOI:10.1308/rcsann.2021.0261 (Source: Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England)

How a managed service for colon capsule endoscopy works in an overstretched healthcare system
Scand J Gastroenterol. 2021 Dec 2:1-5. doi: 10.1080/00365521.2021.2006299. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLower gastrointestinal diagnostics have been facing significant capacity constraints, which the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated due to significant reductions in endoscopy procedures. Colon Capsule Endoscopy (CCE) provides a safe, viable solution to offset ongoing demand and could be a valuable tool for the recovery of endoscopy services post-COVID. NHS Scotland has already begun a country-wide rollout of CCE as a managed service, and NHS England have committed to a pilot scheme of 11,000 capsules via hospital-based de...

Using transanal irrigation in the management of low anterior resection syndrome: a service audit
This article describes a retrospective audit of 15 patients who were using TAI to manage symptoms of LARS. The aim of the audit was to ascertain whether the use of TAI improved outcomes for these patients. The data suggest that TAI has reduced both the frequency of bowel movements and episodes of faecal incontinence. Those patients using higher volumes of water seem to have experienced more benefit than those patients using lower volumes of water. These findings are consistent with current literature around TAI for LARS and suggest research into optimum volume of water would be beneficial.PMID:34839681 | DOI:10.12968/bjon....
