• Registration Number: NCT06769438
• Lead Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens

Brief Summary

The number of emergencies's visits (22 million visits in 2019 in France), the organization of emergencies and the sustainability of the current health system are threatened. In the CHUAP adult emergency department, 60,000 visits were recorded in 2022.

Unlike medical emergencies which have structured their care and research activities (heart, brain), and whose organization has demonstrated its general interest for society, digestive surgical emergencies, which involve complex patients (elderly people, comorbidities) , emergency situations and surgical procedures, have never been thought of globally in terms of personalized care and research pathways. Currently, patients treated in emergency are managed without a pre-established optimization program and without a dedicated pathway, where emergency constitutes a major risk factor for postoperative complications.

RAUCAMIENS evaluates a new care pathway implemented within the framework of the RHU RAUC : the implementation of the Enhanced rehabilitation after surgery (ERAS) and e-health devices for home monitoring, for patients treated in the emergency room for a digestive pathology. The purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness of the RAUC pathway in reducing the rate of unplanned hospitalization readmission after emergency digestive surgery 30 days postoperative.
