Abstract

Background: Diverticular disease (DD) is a major burden on healthcare systems globally, especially in the western world. DD accounts for the second most common indication for elective colorectal resections, with each resection costing the National Health Service (NHS) a minimum of £5,000. Since dietary advice is an integral part of the management of DD, we aim to investigate the proportion of patients that receive documented dietary advice or guidance on their stay in hospital.
