Conventional Vs Tailored Limb Lengths in Laparoscopic Roux-en Y Gastric Bypass Surgery

The study aims to investigate whether tailoring limb lengths based on the 1/3rd and 2/3rd concept improves clinical outcomes in Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (LRYGB) surgery compared to conventional limb lengths. In this study, two groups were described, first group involves patients who will undergo Lap RYGB with conventional limb lengths of 75cms and 125cms, while the second group is given tailored limb lengths according to the total small bowel length. In the follow up period, Total percentage weight loss, improvement in BMI along with the remission of co-morbidities were also assessed.

Effect of Pelvic Rehabilitation After Low Anterior Resection for Cancer Rectum. - A Randomised Controlled Trial

Study Purpose: This study aims to understand how pelvic floor rehabilitation (PFR) after low anterior resection (LAR) surgery for rectal cancer affects bowel control and quality of life compared to usual care. Background: Rectal cancer and its treatments can significantly impact patients' lives, often causing bowel issues like frequent bowel movements, urgency, and incontinence. These problems, known as low anterior resection syndrome (LARS), affect 70-90% of patients and can last for over two years. (1,2) Current Knowledge: Advances in treatments have improved survival rates and recovery. Despite improvements, many patients still experience bowel issues after surgery. Past studies show PFR can help, but they have limitations like small sample sizes and varied methods. (3-5) Need for the Study: There is a need for a well-designed study to confirm the benefits of PFR and to identify which patients benefit the most. Study Design: This study is a randomized controlled trial that will: * Compare PFR to usual care in patients after LAR surgery. * Focus on bowel control and quality of life. * Provide detailed insights to improve aftercare for rectal cancer patients.
