Who might be able to join this trial:
Interventional group (active participants):
- Adults aged 21 or older who are scheduled for a planned bowel surgery called a low anterior resection, due to colorectal cancer
- People whose surgical join (anastomosis) in the bowel is expected to be made within 10 cm of the opening of the back passage
- People whose surgery is expected to involve the use of a surgical drain (this is confirmed during the operation)
- People who are willing to attend follow-up visits and able to give their informed consent to participate
Historical group (past medical records review):
- Adults aged 21 or older at the time of their bowel surgery
- People who previously had a low anterior resection for colorectal cancer
- People whose records show the bowel join or tumour was located within 10 cm of the back passage opening, with complete medical records covering their hospital stay and 12 months of follow-up, or up until a stoma reversal procedure, whichever came first
Who may not be able to join:
Interventional group:
- People whose bowel condition is non-cancerous (benign)
- People for whom surgery or general anaesthetic is medically not safe
- People who are known to be pregnant or breastfeeding
- People who receive a protective stoma (a temporary bag) during the surgery (confirmed during the operation)
- People who have an electronic device implanted in the chest or abdomen, such as a pacemaker or defibrillator
- People with a significant medical or psychiatric condition, or other health factors, that may affect their ability to attend follow-up appointments
- People with a known allergy to silicone, rubber, or stainless steel, which are materials used in the study device (the xBar system)
- People who are already participating in another interventional clinical study while the xBar device is in use
Historical group:
- People whose past surgery was performed for a non-cancerous reason, such as diverticulitis, inflammatory bowel disease, non-cancerous narrowing of the bowel, or a fistula
