About this study

Performance of contrast study has been a part of the protocols at multiple institutions of the southwestern surgical congress. Plan to perform a retrospective review of management protocols at these institutions. Wish to know whether the implementation of a standardized, protocol-driven pattern of practice involving the performance of water soluble contrast study in patients admitted with SBO, will improve quality and safety, and decrease length of stay and morbidity.
