“...Out of these 5 factors,
3 were found to be independent determinants of AL using a logistic regression model:
intraperitoneal local sepsis (Relative risk [RR] 7.2, 95%confidence interval [CI] 2.81-
17.5), Haemoglobin level ([<10g/dl] RR 4 ,95% CI 2.167 – 7.5) and Surgeons
experience( Trainee/ expert) ( RR 1.4 , 95% CI 1.143-
1.957)
The knowledge of factors associated with anastomotic leakage after intestinal
anastomosis can be modified to reduce AL and improve AL outcomes in our setting...”
