Reasons for withdrawal

Withdrawal data not reported

Baseline Characteristics

10 patients had their surgeries scheduled after the trial closed, 8 were deemed ineligible because they were later found to take preoperative narcotics daily, deviated significantly from the enhanced recovery protocol, or developed recurrent disease prior to surgery. 4 patients withdrew consent and another 4 had missing data.

Population: Data was not collected for this outcome measure. There was no funding to collect or analyze the data. Also it was determined that the concept of cost was highly variable at the hospital and any data that was obtained would lack granular costs on most items. Lacking this granularity would make any results meaningless.
