Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Patients with peritoneal disease commonly present with symptoms of abdominal distension and subacute intestinal obstruction. This results in poor oral intake leading to these patients often presenting in a malnourished state.

CRS and HIPEC can potential provide improve survival for these patients, however can be a hazardous procedure, involving multi-organ resections. The risk is especially high in poorly nourished patients.

The study investigators hypothesize that perioperative immunonutrition can reduce wound infections and length of hospital stay, and improve perioperative outcomes. To the investigators' knowledge, it has not been evaluated in patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC.

Oral IMPACT

Perioperative immunonutrition will commence 5-7 days prior to surgery, and will continue for 5-7 days post-surgery, as soon as the patient is able to consume full feeds as instructed by his/her primary physician.

The recommended dose for IMPACT immunotherapy is one packet, to be taken three times a day.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

IMPACT immunotherapy

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT
