Predictive Model for Colorectal Cancer Stoma Prolapse

Surgeons can now better identify patients at risk for stoma prolapse after colorectal cancer surgery.

Age, elevated intra-abdominal pressure, stoma type, and hypoproteinemia are independent risk factors within 6 months post-surgery.
The study involved 270 patients, with 62 experiencing stoma prolapse.

This predictive model aids in implementing preventive strategies and tailoring patient management.

It utilizes a training set of 189 and a validation set of 81 patients for reliable outcomes.
