This research may involve studying the effectiveness of different surgical procedures, examining risk factors for postoperative complications, evaluating the impact of pre-operative interventions, and exploring ways to optimize patient outcomes following surgery. The ultimate goal of research in this area is to improve the safety, efficacy, and quality of surgical care for patients.
