Abstract
Abstract
Aim
Documenting pregnancy status (PS) is an important component of the medical assessment of all females of reproductive age (FRA), defined as age 16-55 years old when admitted to hospital. This audit aims to determine the rate of documentation of PS amongst FRA admitted to a tertiary colorectal surgical unit via the surgical admissions unit (SAU) or transfer from other departments between 01/10/20 – 13/11/20.
Method
A complete documentation of PS comprises of results of urine or serum (β-hCG) and relevant gynaecological history (i.e., last menstrual period and any contraceptive use) clearly reported in the admission clerk-in. Patients with presenting complaint excluding abdominal pain, current pregnancy, history of hysterectomy or sterilisation procedures were excluded.
Results
During the audit duration, 29 FRA were admitted of which 13 (44.8%) were included for analysis. Of patients included, 4/9 (44.4%) and 1/4 (25.0%) admitted via SAU or transferred from other departments respectively had a past colorectal history. 4 (30.8%) had complete documentation of PS of which, 3 (75.0%) were patients transferred from other departments.
Conclusions
Low rates of documentation of PS especially amongst emergency admissions via SAU, is possibly associated with a narrow differential diagnosis influenced by pre-existing colorectal history. This audit did not look at PS documentation prior to any subsequent surgical intervention. A re-audit following the implementation of a guidance poster in SAU is currently underway.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) can be curatively treated with ‘good quality’ transurethral resection of the bladder tumour (TURBT). However, despite evidence-based international guidelines, there is anecdotal evidence that practice varies widely, and this may affect oncological outcomes. Launching in 2020, RESECT aims to measure and report variation in TURBT quality globally, and determine if outcome reporting improves outcomes.
Method
RESECT was advertised internationally through social media, mailing lists, websites, and in person. Collaborators at each registered site will collect data about current practice and the experience of local TURBT surgeons. The primary outcome is the rate of achievement of key TURBT quality indicators.
Results
As of August 27, 508 collaborators have registered to participate. Collaborators represent 321 centres from 54 countries, with the highest number from the United Kingdom (54.5%), Spain (5.9%), and Argentina (3.7%). 51.2% are trainees, 29.9% consultants, and 17.5% medical students. Based on current registrations, patient recruitment will far exceed initial projections and considerably improve statistical power.
Conclusions
RESECT has attracted a large number of collaborators globally and from all training levels. Therefore, the RESECT study has the potential to improve the quality of TURBT surgery across the world.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is one of the most expensive cancers to treat, driven by high recurrence rates and disease progression. Mortality rates in the UK for all bladder cancers have remained relatively stable over the past decade. NMIBC can be curatively treated with transurethral resection of the bladder tumour (TURBT). Despite international evidence-based guidelines on the TURBT procedure and postoperative single instillation of mitomycin-C, TURBT quality continues to vary widely. RESECT will be the first ever international study of TURBT surgery evaluating the achievement of TURBT quality indicators globally and assessing if audit and performance feedback can improve surgical outcomes.
Methods
RESECT is a prospective, multicentre international observational cohort study. Collaborators at each site will collect data using REDCap about local TURBT practice, early recurrence rates and the experience of local TURBT surgeons. The primary outcome is the rate of achievement of key TURBT quality indicators. Advertisement for the study launched in 2020.
Results
As of October 1st, 2020, 524 collaborators have registered to participate. Collaborators represent 334 centres from 54 countries, with the highest number of centres from the United Kingdom (133), Spain (17), and India (16). 50.8% are trainees, 30.3% consultants, and 17.2% medical students. Based on current registrations, patient recruitment will far exceed initial projections and considerably improve statistical power.
Conclusion
RESECT has attracted many collaborators internationally from consultants and trainees at all stages. RESECT has significant potential to positively impact TURBT practice, health economics and ultimately improve outcomes for patients with NMIBC globally.
