Unplanned intensive care unit admission after elective colon cancer resection: population-based registry study
Unplanned intensive care unit admission was associated with increased short- and long-term mortality. Patients who had surgical reinterventions leading to intensive care unit admission were admitted later and had poorer outcomes than those with non-surgical complications, highlighting the need for earlier recognition and tailored postoperative monitoring strategies.
