“…23 Recently released systematic review has documented the variations in constituents of implemented bundles for patients undergoing colorectal surgery. 24 However, decision-making on which evidence-based or commonsensed measures will be preferred as a part of the bundle is challenging. Moreover the question of "which subset of patients could benefit the most from targeted interventions" remained unanswered.…”
