Trang 10Preface
Quality measures and outcomes are receiving greater attention
by the lay and medical communities The occurrence or
mis-management of complications often results in poor outcomes,
increased cost, and significant morbidity Answering the call for
transparency and improvement requires action by all involved
in the care of patients Collection of objective data and quality
measures allows documentation of optimal care and desired
out-comes while identifying areas for improvement
The goal of this text is to present the current knowledge of
outcomes, as well as the techniques for minimizing and managing
complications from the common diseases and procedures of this
specialty This information will aid providers in optimizing care
and encourage research in outcome and quality measurement
Improved Outcomes of Colon and Rectal Surgery represents
the collaborative efforts of many individuals The contributing
authors were selected for their knowledge of colorectal surgery and
ability to present their surgical judgment and experience in written
form They represent a spectrum of experienced providers who
have made significant contributions to younger individuals who
will shape the future of their specialty In addition to reviewing the available literature, they have described their personal approach
to complications in colorectal surgery Numerous technical descriptions and highlights from multiple discussions held in surgical locker rooms, morbidity and mortality conferences, and the hallways of conferences and symposiums have been included Using this approach, we hope this text will provide initial guidance
to the less experienced provider and stimulate additional thought and research to the more experienced provider
The editors gratefully acknowledge the efforts of the many individuals who made this book possible This text carries on the vision of previous editors and contributors to the first two editions of Complications in Colon and Rectal Surgery
