Postoperative management in digestive surgery has been modernized thanks to improved rehabilitation measures. These measures include an earlier refeeding, mobilization, restriction of infusions (out of a total of 22) and showed their benefit in colorectal, gastric and bariatric surgery. It is thus possible to perform sleeve gastrectomy, bypass, restorations of digestive continuity and colectomies with early discharge or one day surgery.
The most serious complications (fistula, sepsis) occur in the first 10 days postoperatively with an average readmission rate of 10%. Their screening is based on clinical signs (tachycardia, pain) or biological (C-Reactive Protein (CRP) assay on Day 3 or Day 4). It is important to manage these complications early so that their morbidity is lower, resulting in shorter stays and less severity.
The monitoring and safety of patients discharged early are therefore essential and for the moment poorly codified, ranging from simple nursing to follow-up via a health provider. Recently, coordination structures including nurse platform and smartphone follow up app have emerged. Thanks to this system, the patient collects his own history and biological results which allows him to be monitored continuously, as in the hospital. In case of no filling or sign of complication, the nurse platform contacts the patient.
This connected follow-up would make it possible to reinforce the safety of the patient discharged early after a complex digestive procedure performed on an outpatient basis. Its benefit has been poorly evaluated but it is however more and more used by surgeons convinced of its interest especially as it goes in the direction of the development of the outpatient activity requested by the High Authority of Health with economic benefits interesting also the administration of the care structures.
The purpose of the investigator's study is to evaluate the impact of e-assessed follow-up during 10 days after surgery compared to a conventional follow-up. The hypothesis is that this connected follow-up would allow earlier detection of complications requiring rehospitalization (within 48 hours), resulting in faster and less severe treatment.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| E-assessed follow up | Experimental | Patients undergoing colorectal surgery (colectomy, sigmoidectomy, proctectomy, digestive stoma closure), bariatric or gastric, for whom an early discharge has been programmed, and followed by a connected application and a nursing logistics platform at home. |
|
| Standard home follow-up care | Other | Patients undergoing surgery for colorectal surgery (colectomy, sigmoidectomy, proctectomy, digestive stoma closure), bariatric or gastric surgery, for whom an early discharge has been programmed, and followed by usual way. |
|
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| E-assessed clinical and biological follow up | Device | Clinical questionnaire: self-evaluation of pain (0 to 10), resumption of transit, bleeding, fever, pulse. In case of no filling, the patient is contacted. An automatic alert system is defined and divide the patient according to three situations:
Biological questionnaire: Biological monitoring (blood count, Ionogram, C-Reactive Protein, urea, creatinine) is performed on D1, D3 and D7. All information is accessible in real time by the surgeon who receives notifications by email and on his smartphone in case of clinical or biological abnormality on patient monitoring. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Time required for the management of post-operative complications requiring rehospitalization | Number of hours between discharge from hospitalization after digestive surgery and readmission for hospitalization during which medical, surgical, radiological or endoscopic treatment is performed. | Within 6 months after surgery |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Severe postoperative complication rate | Rate of medical and surgical (> or = grade 3) complications within 30 days after surgery using the Dindo-Clavien classification, described as: Grade I = Any deviation from the normal postoperative course. Grade 2 = Requiring pharmacological treatment with drugs other than such allowed for grade I complications. Grade III = Requiring surgical, endoscopic or radiological intervention, not under (Grade IIIa) or under general anesthesia (Grade IIIb) Grade IV = Life-threatening complication with single organ (Grade IVa) or Multiorgan dysfunction (Grade IVb) Grade V = Death of a patient. |

| Usual at home follow up | Other | An information sheet on the clinical parameters to be monitored will be given to patients and will include the following information:
Each patient will be given a prescription to perform a C-Reactive Protein assay on D1, D3 and D7, similarly. |
|
| Within 30 days after surgery |
| Early overall complication rate | Rate of medical and surgical complications (each grade) within 30 days after surgery using the Dindo-Clavien classification | Within 30 days after surgery |
| Type of early complications | Type (medical or surgical) of late complications (after 30 days) for each procedure according to the Dindo-Clavien classification | Within 30 days after surgery |
| Severity of early complications | Severity of late complications (after 30 days) for each procedure according to the Dindo-Clavien classification | Within 30 days after surgery |
| Late overall complication rate | Rate of medical and surgical complications (each grade) within 6 months after surgery using the Dindo-Clavien classification | Within 6 months after surgery |
| Type of late complications | Type (medical or surgical) of late complications (after 6 months) for each procedure according to the Dindo-Clavien classification | Within 6 months after surgery |
| Severity of late complications | Severity of late complications (after 6 months) for each procedure according to the Dindo-Clavien classification | Within 6 months after surgery |
| Postoperative mortality | Number of patients who died within 30 days and 6 months after surgery | Within 30 days and 6 months after surgery |
| Readmission of patient | Number of patients readmitted within 30 days and 6 months after surgery. | Within 30 days and 6 months after surgery |
| Quality of life assessed with SF36 questionnaire | Before surgery and at 10 and 30 days after surgery, according to the SF36 (Short Form (36) Health Survey) questionnaire. This questionnaire taps eight health concepts: physical functioning, bodily pain, role limitations due to physical health problems, role limitations due to personal or emotional problems, emotional well-being, social functioning, energy/tiredness, and general health perceptions. It also includes a single item that provides an indication of a perceived change in health. | Before surgery and at 10 and 30 days after surgery |
| Quality of life assessed with GIQLI questionnaire | Before surgery and at 10 and 30 days after surgery, according to the GIQLI (Gastrointestinal Quality of Life index) questionnaire. This questionnaire consists of 36 items exploring 5 dimensions or subscales: symptoms, physical condition, emotions, social integration and the effect of any medical treatment. For each item, 5 responses will be proposed to the patients and for each answer, a score ranging from 0 to 4 (highest score = 144) will be assigned. A high score defines a more favorable health state. | Before surgery and at 10 and 30 days after surgery |
| Patient satisfaction: VAS | Satisfaction will be measured using a visual analog scale, rated from 0 (no satisfaction) to 10 (Perfect Satisfaction) | 10 days after surgery |
| Patient sense of security | Sence of security will be measured using a visual analog scale, rated from 0 (no security felt) to 10 (Complete security felt Satisfaction) | 10 days after surgery |
