980 Readmissions Within 30 Days of Discharge Following Single Stoma Formation

Abstract Background Patients who have stoma surgery are at higher risk for readmission following discharge. Some may benefit from closer post-discharge surveillance to detect complications earlier and provide timely treatment avoid readmission. However, there a paucity of contemporary tools identify those discharge after surgery. Here, we aimed determine factors associated with readmissions, within 30 days discharge, Method Retrospective review all patients underwent single formation tertiary colorectal service (2019–2021). Results 423 220 ileostomy 203 colostomy surgeries. Overall, 87 (20.6%) were readmitted The rate in IBD (n=87) was 18.4%, cancer (n=208) 20.7%, diverticular disease (n=45) 17.8% vascular (n=19) 36.8% (p>0.05). There no association between gender, aetiology, smoking, weight, or social care. only comorbidity increased chronic heart failure (p=0.05), other comorbidities an incidence post-operative stoma-specific (bleeding p=0.02; high-output p=0.01) received loop ileostomies compared types (34.0% versus 18.6%; p=0.01). protective effect given nutritional supplements post-operatively (p=0.04). Conclusion Readmission is related variables that potentially the means triage, score predict Further work being undertaken develop prospectively validate model.
