This trial is a web-based registry that collects information about people who need emergency surgical or non-surgical treatment for sudden (acute) problems. Your information can help doctors better understand and improve emergency care and decision-making.
This study gathers information from hospitals worldwide to better understand how often problems happen after surgery and how to prevent them. By joining, you help improve surgical care for everyone.
This trial compares different surgical techniques—open, laparoscopic (keyhole), and robotic—for emergency abdominal surgery. By joining, you may help doctors learn which approach leads to better recovery and outcomes for patients like you.
This study looks at adults and teens who had emergency abdominal surgery to understand their recovery and improve care. It may help future patients by identifying what works best and where improvements are needed.
This study collects videos and medical records from adults having minimally invasive surgery, like laparoscopy or robotic surgery. The goal is to review these videos to improve surgical techniques and training. If you're having this type of surgery, your de-identified data may be used for research.
This study looks at how to improve care for older patients (65+) who need emergency abdominal surgery. If you take part, you'll answer a survey or talk about your experience before and after surgery, to help make future care better.
