The maintenance bundle consists of: proper daily nursing care, preparation of intravenous medication, administration of intravenous medication, blood drawing from a CVC, administration of a bacterial-static solution to short bowel patients, removal procedure, port catheter (e.g. general port catheter care, administration of medication and removal of the port needle).
For CRC specifically, providers prefer colonoscopy as a screening tool because it allows for visualization of the entire bowel and easy removal of suspicious lesions as well as significant precancerous lesions.
A complete colonoscopy was considered to include: colonoscopy up to the level of the cecum, good bowel preparation, and removal of all the detected adenomas.
My practice would primarily involve office visits, some general surgery (appendectomies, gallbladder removals, bowel and breast surgery), and — given my interest in endocrine tumors — a lot of thyroid and adrenal surgery.

Open surgical interventions in the pelvic area, such as surgical treatment of endometriosis, tumour removal and bowel surgery, are associated with an increased risk due to the trauma caused to the abdominal membrane (peritoneum).
30 To investigate the impact of CRC on the immune system, we asked whether removal of malignant bowel altered immune responses to tumour antigens (CEA and 5T4) or control antigens (HA and PPD).
