Arrow Study

We will be there!

@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…

Database closing on 7th July! We need to close the database and begin the analysis. Can all sites please check your data and make necessary additions. Thanks for all your hard work!

Big day today. Starting the @RCSnews OG cancer fellowship @GSTTnhs. Yesterday the @ArrowStudy preliminary numbers show we have collected 545 cases (can we beat 600) in the middle of an unprecedented global pandemic. @roux_group @Augishealth

@cynicalsurgeon @LINXSystemUK @AneurinBevanUHB Great work! Hope they have been added to the ARROW database!!

Delighted to perform the first @LINXSystemUK procedure in Wales @AneurinBevanUHB today. #LINX #GERD #surgery

First daycase anti-reflux operation performed this week at @SomersetFT, in the capable hands of @CurrieSurgery. Evolution is necessary to ensure we can continue to serve our patients! Hopeful this will help facilitate many more ops in the coming months. @ArrowStudy

Just a quick reminder - we are still collecting patients (if any of you are lucky enough to be operating on anti-reflux patients!) Email arrowsurgerystudy@gmail.com if you need login details!

@ArrowStudy just blasted past 300 patients…@roux_group @Augishealth

Excellent presentation by @Robwalker27 on the challenges and successes of @ArrowStudy Please keep submitting your patients. Contact us at arrowsurgerystudy@gmail.com

@ArrowStudy investigating gastro-oesophageal reflux being presented @Augishealth #UGI2021 @NatalieBlencowe @T4UGIS

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

But look how long it takes to get from referral to surgery....impact of COVID? or a bigger problem?@HeartburnCancer @Augishealth @RCSnews @roux_group

@RCSnews @Augishealth @roux_group @ArrowStudy Does it take longer?

What proportion of fundoplications are being performed robotically in the UK? @RCSnews @Augishealth @roux_group @ArrowStudy.....about 5%!!!

Hugely important collaborative study. Fantastic model to springboard benign UGI research across the UK @ArrowStudy

#UGI2021 has started! Check out our posters of some of the initial data. Looking forward to @Robwalker27 presenting some insights Thursday morning.
