@Augishealth @roux_group @ArrowStudy I’m in the benign breakout session at AUGIS, watching some excellent live robotic surgery. In a while I’ll be presenting the results of the ARROW audit of anti-reflux. A few spoilers for you…

Endoscopy is mandatory in the workup of patients for antireflux surgery and has to be carried out in the last year prior to antireflux surgery. ICARUS Guidelines, GUT 2019.

“A tension pneumo should be detected on primary survey before the trauma CT. basics”. Dave on WhatsApp 2020. Then set up a multi centre collaboration to test that hypothesis as no good evidence. Proved himself wrong and changed his mind. Testament to a proper researcher!

82% of surgeons say that 24hr pH monitoring is essential before anti reflux surgery. 92% say that manometry is essential.
