B Result b : There were 100 patients (out of 1394) identified who met the study criteria, Management of anastomotic leak was significantly dependent ( I P i < 0.001) upon the degree of the leak, with the majority of patients with an uncontained perforation being managed by operative abdominal drainage (90%); patients with contained perforation were mainly managed with intravenous antibiotics only (60%), When examining the degree of anastomotic leak (contained, not contained or anastomotic stricture) with overall FISI score and EQ-VAS score, there was no difference seen ( I P i = 0.78 and 0.94 respectively). This study investigated the effect of a providing patients with a list of suggested questions they may like to ask their surgeon, a question prompt list (QPL) on patient recall, anxiety, consultation duration, and patient-surgeon communication. Early deaths (<72 h) after an EL may reflect futile surgery and will be reduced by EL eligible patients who die without an operation (No-Laps) Australia's unique national surgical mortality audit has had a long term focus on the avoidance of futile surgery. B Conclusion: b Robotic surgery is a safe approach to colorectal surgery and hernia repairs with some potential benefits in terms of patient outcomes as surgeon experience increases.
