Conditions studied: Colorectal Cancer, Surgery

In brief

The unplanned readmission rate after colorectal cancer surgery is still high, despite the implementation of enhanced recovery programs. The use of a mobile-based application for perioperative remote monitoring may improve the postoperative outcomes and reduce the unplanned postoperative readmissions.
