Improved Emergency Laparotomy Outcomes Following Perioperative Care Pathway

Following the implementation of a transdisciplinary perioperative care pathway, a significant decrease in major morbidity and intra-abdominal complications was observed, along with reduced need for unplanned interventions post emergency laparotomy. The pathway also led to increased assessments by geriatric medicine. These results indicate sustained improved postoperative outcomes over 3 years, showcasing the efficacy of the emergency laparotomy pathway in enhancing patient care and recovery.
