The subjects were divided into the ERAS program group and the conventional control group. The clinical characteristics, recovery variables, and complications of patients were analyzed.RESULTS: The time to first ambulation, oral food intake, and time to defecation were significantly shorter in the ERAS group(n = 30), compared to the conventional group(n = 31; P = 0.04, 0.003, and 0.01, respectively). The postoperative hospital stay was less in the ERAS group(6.8 ± 1.1 d) compared to the conventional group(7.7 ± 1.1 d)(P = 0.002). There was no significant difference in postoperative complications between the ERAS(1/30) and conventional care groups(2/31)(P = 1.00). There were no readmissions or mortality during the 30-d follow-up period.CONCLUSION: The ERAS program is associated with a shorter hospital stay in gastric cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy. The ERAS protocol is useful in the treatment of gastric cancer.展开更多

Studies selected for the meta-analysis met all of the following inclusion criteria:(1) evaluation of ERAS in comparison to traditional care in adult patients undergoing elective open or laparoscopic liver surgery;(2) outcome measures including complications,recovery of bowel function,and hospital length of stay; and(3) RCTs. The following exclusion criteria were applied:(1) the study was not an RCT;(2) the study did not compare ERAS with traditional care;(3) the study reported on emergency,non-elective or transplantation surgery; and(4) the study consisted of unpublished studies with only the abstract presented at a national or international meeting. The primary outcomes were complications. Secondary outcomes were length of hospital stay and time to first flatus.RESULTS:Five RCTs containing 723 patients were included in the meta-analysis. In 10/723 cases,patients presented with benign diseases,while the remaining 713 cases had liver cancer. Of the five studies,three were published in English and two were published in Chinese. Three hundred and fifty-four patients were in the ERAS group,while 369 patients were in the traditional care group. Compared with traditional care,ERAS programs were associated with significantly decreased overall complications(RR = 0.66; 95%CI:0.49-0.88; P = 0.005),grade?Ⅰ?complications(RR = 0.51; 95%CI:0.33-0.79; P = 0.003),and hospitallength of stay [WMD =-2.77 d,95%CI:-3.87-(-1.66); P < 0.00001]. Similarly,ERAS programs were associated with decreased time to first flatus [WMD =-19.69 h,95%CI:-34.63-(-4.74); P < 0.0001]. There was no statistically significant difference in grade Ⅱ-Ⅴ complications between the two groups.CONCLUSION:ERAS is a safe and effective program in liver surgery. Future studies should define the active elements to optimize postoperative outcomes for liver surgery.展开更多

Thirteen RCTs, with a total of 1092 participants, were analyzed in this study, of whom 545 underwent ERAS protocols and 547 received SC treatment.RESULTS No significant difference was observed between ERAS and control groups regarding total complications(P = 0.88), mortality(P = 0.50) and reoperation(P = 0.49). The incidence of pulmonary infection was significantly reduced(P = 0.03) following gastrectomy. However, the readmission rate after GC surgery nearly tripled under ERAS(P = 0.009). ERAS protocols significantly decreased the length of postoperative hospital stay(P < 0.00001) and medical costs(P < 0.00001), and accelerated bowel function recovery, as measured by earlier time to the first flatus(P = 0.0004) and the first defecation(P < 0.0001). Moreover, ERAS protocols were associated with a lower level of serum inflammatory response, higher serum albumin, and superior shortterm quality of life(QOL).CONCLUSION Collectively, ERAS results in accelerated convalescence, reduction of surgical stress and medical costs, improved nutritional status, and better QOL for GC patients. However, high-quality multicenter RCTs with large samples and long-term follow-up are needed to more precisely evaluate ERAS in radical gastrectomy.展开更多

The observed indicators included operation conditions, postoperative clinical indexes, and postoperative serum stress indexes. Measurement data following a normal distribution are presented as mean ± SD and were analyzed by t-test. Count data were analyzed by χ~2 test.RESULTS The operative time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, and number of patients with conversion to opensurgery were not significantly different between the two groups. Postoperative clinical indexes, including the time to initial anal exhaust, time to initial liquid diet intake, time to out-of-bed activity, and duration of hospital stay of patients without complications, were significantly different between the two groups(t = 2.045, 8.685, 2.580, and 4.650, respectively, P < 0.05 for all). However, the time to initial defecation, time to abdominal drainage-tube removal, and the early postoperative complications were not significantly different between the two groups. Regarding postoperative complications, on the first and third days after the operation, the white blood cell count(WBC) and C reactive protein(CRP) and interleukin-6(IL-6) levels in the ERAS group were significantly lower than those in the control group.CONCLUSION The perioperative ERAS program for total laparoscopic uncut Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy after distal gastrectomy is safe and effective and should be popularized. Additionally, this program can also reduce the duration of hospital stay and improve the degree of comfort and satisfaction of patients.展开更多
文摘The concept of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)has been practiced for decades and has been implemented in numerous surgical specialties.ERAS is a global surgical quality improvement initiative,and it is an element in the field of perioperative care.ERAS had shown significant clinical outcomes,patientreported satisfaction,and improvements in medical service cost.ERAS has been developed for specific surgical procedures,but with the fast progress of newly introduced surgical procedures,the original ERAS have been developed and modified.Recently appearing Topics and future research trends encompass ERAS protocols for other types of surgery and the enhancement of perioperative status,including but not limited to pediatric surgery,laparoscopic and robotic assisted surgery,bariatric surgery,thoracic surgery,and renal transplantation.The elements and pathways of ERAS have been developed with the introduction of up-to-date methodologies in the pre-operative,operative,and post-operative pathways.ERAS costs are higher than traditional care,but the patient’s clinical outcome and satisfaction are higher.ERAS is in progress in the fields of anesthetic tasks,pediatric surgery,and organ transplantation.Although ERAS has shown significant clinical outcomes,there are needs to modify the protocol for specific cases,hospital facilities,resources,and nurses training on elements of ERAS.Several challenges and limitations exist in the implementation of ERAS that deserve consideration,it includes:Frailty,maximizing nutrition,prehabilitation,treating preoperative anemia,and enhancing ERAS adoption globally are all included.
文摘Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)programs have been widely applied in liver surgery since the publication of the first ERAS guidelines in 2016 and the new recommendations in 2022.Liver surgery is usually performed in oncological patients(liver metastasis,hepatocellular carcinoma,cholangiocarcinoma,etc.),but the real impact of liver surgery ERAS programs in oncological outcomes is not clearly defined.Theoretical advantages of ERAS programs are:ERAS decreases postoperative complication rates and has been demonstrated a clear relationship between complications and oncological outcomes;a better and faster posto-perative recovery should let oncologic teams begin chemotherapeutic regimens on time;prehabilitation and nutrition actions before surgery should also improve the performance status of the patients receiving chemotherapy.So,ERAS could be another way to improve our oncological results.We will discuss the literature about liver surgery ERAS focusing on its oncological implications and future investigations projects.

文摘BACKGROUND Rehabilitation of elderly patients with a high body mass index(BMI)after cholecystectomy carries risks and requires the adoption of effective perioperative management strategies.The enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)protocol is a comprehensive treatment approach that facilitates early patient recovery and reduces postoperative complications.AIM To compare the effectiveness of traditional perioperative management methods with the ERAS protocol in elderly patients with gallbladder stones and a high BMI.METHODS This retrospective cohort study examined data from 198 elderly patients with a high BMI who underwent cholecystectomy at the Shanghai Fourth People's Hospital from August 2019 to August 2022.Among them,99 patients were managed using the traditional perioperative care approach(non-ERAS protocol),while the remaining 99 patients were managed using the ERAS protocol.Relevant indicator data were collected for patients preoperatively,intraoperatively,and postoperatively,and surgical outcomes were compared between the two groups.RESULTS The comparison results between the two groups of patients in terms of age,sex,BMI,underlying diseases,surgical type,and preoperative hospital stay showed no statistically significant differences.However,the ERAS group had a significantly shorter preoperative fasting time than the non-ERAS group(4.0±0.9 h vs 7.6±0.9 h).Regarding intraoperative indicators,there were no significant differences between the two groups of patients.However,in terms of postoperative recovery,the ERAS protocol group exhibited significant advantages over the non-ERAS group,including a shorter hospital stay,lower postoperative pain scores and postoperative hunger scores,and higher satisfaction levels.The readmission rate was lower in the ERAS protocol group than in the non-ERAS group(3.0%vs 8.1%),although the difference was not significant.Furthermore,there were significant differences between the two groups in terms of postoperative nausea and vomiting severity,postoperative abdominal distention at 24 h,and daily life ability scores.CONCLUSION The findings of this study demonstrate that the ERAS protocol confers significant advantages in postoperative outcomes following cholecystectomy,including reduced readmission rates,decreased postoperative nausea and vomiting,alleviated abdominal distension,and enhanced functional capacity.While the protocol may not exhibit significant improvement in early postoperative symptoms,it does exhibit advantages in long-term postoperative symptoms and recovery.These findings underscore the importance of implementing the ERAS protocol in the postoperative management of cholecystectomy patients,as it contributes to improving patients'recovery and quality of life while reducing health care resource utilization.

文摘BACKGROUND In China,as the population grows older,the number of elderly people who have died from respiratory problems has increased.AIM To investigate whether enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)-based respiratory function training may help older patients who had abdominal surgery suffer fewer pulmonary problems,shorter hospital stays,and improved lung function.METHODS The data of 231 elderly individuals having abdominal surgery was retrospectively analyzed.Based on whether ERAS-based respiratory function training was provided,patients were divided into ERAS group(n=112)and control group(n=119).Deep vein thrombosis(DVT),pulmonary embolism(PE),and respiratory tract infection(RTI)were the primary outcome variables.Secondary outcome variables included the Borg score Scale,FEV1/FVC and postoperative hospital stay.RESULTS The percentage of 18.75%of ERAS group participants and 34.45%of control group participants,respectively,had respiratory infections(P=0.007).None of the individuals experienced PE or DVT.The ERAS group’s median postoperative hospital stay was 9.5 d(3-21 d)whereas the control groups was 11 d(4-18 d)(P=0.028).The Borg score decreased on the 4th d following surgery in the ERAS group compared to the 2nd d prior(P=0.003).The incidence of RTIs was greater in the control group than in the ERAS group among patients who spent more than 2 d in the hospital before surgery(P=0.029).CONCLUSION ERAS-based respiratory function training may reduce the risk of pulmonary complications in older individuals undergoing abdominal surgery.
文摘AIM: To study the efficacy of the enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) program in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for stomach carcinomas.METHODS: From June 2010 to December 2012, 61 gastric cancer patients who underwent laparoscopicassisted radical gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy at First Hospital of Jilin University were enrolled in this randomized controlled trial.(Clinical Trials.gov, registration ID: NCT01955096). The subjects were divided into the ERAS program group and the conventional control group. The clinical characteristics, recovery variables, and complications of patients were analyzed.RESULTS: The time to first ambulation, oral food intake, and time to defecation were significantly shorter in the ERAS group(n = 30), compared to the conventional group(n = 31; P = 0.04, 0.003, and 0.01, respectively). The postoperative hospital stay was less in the ERAS group(6.8 ± 1.1 d) compared to the conventional group(7.7 ± 1.1 d)(P = 0.002). There was no significant difference in postoperative complications between the ERAS(1/30) and conventional care groups(2/31)(P = 1.00). There were no readmissions or mortality during the 30-d follow-up period.CONCLUSION: The ERAS program is associated with a shorter hospital stay in gastric cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy. The ERAS protocol is useful in the treatment of gastric cancer.
文摘AIM:To evaluate the impact of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) programs in comparison with traditional care on liver surgery outcomes.METHODS:The Pub Med,EMBASE,CNKI and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases were searched for randomized controlled trials(RCTs) comparing the ERAS program with traditional care in patients undergoing liver surgery. Studies selected for the meta-analysis met all of the following inclusion criteria:(1) evaluation of ERAS in comparison to traditional care in adult patients undergoing elective open or laparoscopic liver surgery;(2) outcome measures including complications,recovery of bowel function,and hospital length of stay; and(3) RCTs. The following exclusion criteria were applied:(1) the study was not an RCT;(2) the study did not compare ERAS with traditional care;(3) the study reported on emergency,non-elective or transplantation surgery; and(4) the study consisted of unpublished studies with only the abstract presented at a national or international meeting. The primary outcomes were complications. Secondary outcomes were length of hospital stay and time to first flatus.RESULTS:Five RCTs containing 723 patients were included in the meta-analysis. In 10/723 cases,patients presented with benign diseases,while the remaining 713 cases had liver cancer. Of the five studies,three were published in English and two were published in Chinese. Three hundred and fifty-four patients were in the ERAS group,while 369 patients were in the traditional care group. Compared with traditional care,ERAS programs were associated with significantly decreased overall complications(RR = 0.66; 95%CI:0.49-0.88; P = 0.005),grade?Ⅰ?complications(RR = 0.51; 95%CI:0.33-0.79; P = 0.003),and hospitallength of stay [WMD =-2.77 d,95%CI:-3.87-(-1.66); P < 0.00001]. Similarly,ERAS programs were associated with decreased time to first flatus [WMD =-19.69 h,95%CI:-34.63-(-4.74); P < 0.0001]. There was no statistically significant difference in grade Ⅱ-Ⅴ complications between the two groups.CONCLUSION:ERAS is a safe and effective program in liver surgery. Future studies should define the active elements to optimize postoperative outcomes for liver surgery.
文摘Colorectal resection was traditionally associated with significant morbidity and prolonged stay in hospital.Laparoscopic colorectal resection was first described in 1991 as a minimally invasive form of colorectal surgery.It was later on assessed by multiple randomized controlled trials and meta-analysis and was found to be associated with a faster recovery,lower complication rates and a shorter stay in hospital compared with open resection.To assess the effect of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program on postoperative length of stay after elective colorectal resections,a literature review was conducted,supplemented by the results of 111 ERAS colorectal resections at regional NWS Hospital using a protocol based on the Fast Track approach described by Kehlet in 1999.ERAS has been shown to improve postoperative recovery,reduce length of stay and enhance early return to normal function when compared with traditional colorectal surgical protocols.The role of laparoscopic surgery in colorectal resections within a fast-track (ERAS) program is controversial.The current evidence suggests that within such a program,there is no difference between laparoscopic and open colorectal surgery in terms of postoperative recovery rates or length of hospital stay.
文摘AIM:To study the implementation of an enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)program at a large University Hospital from"pilot study"to"standard of care".METHODS:The study was designed as a prospective single centre cohort study.A prospective evaluation of compliance to a protocol based on full application of all ERAS principles,through the progressive steps of its implementation,was performed.Results achieved in the initial pilot study conducted by a dedicated team(n=47)were compared to those achieved in the shared protocol phase(n=143)three years later.Outcomes were length of postoperative hospital stay,readmission rate,compliance to the protocol and morbidity.Primary endpoint was the description of the results and the identification of critical issues of large scale implementation of an ERAS program in colorectal surgery emerged in the experience of a single center.Secondary endpoint was the identification of interventions that have been proven to be effective for facilitating the transition from traditional care pathways to a multimodal management protocol according to ERAS principles in colorectal surgery at a single center.RESULTS:During the initial pilot study(March 2009 to December 2010;47 patients)conducted by a dedicated multidisciplinary team,compliance to the items of ERAS protocol was 93%,with a median length of hospital stay(LOS)of 3 d.Early anastomotic fistulas were observed in 2 cases(4.2%),which required reoperation(Clavien-Dindo gradeⅢb).None of the patients had been discharged before the onset of the complication,which could therefore receive prompt treatment.There were also four(8.5%)minor complications(ClavienDindo gradeⅡ).Thirty days readmission rate was 4%.Perioperative mortality was nil.After implementation of the protocol throughout the Hospital in unselected patients(May 2012 to December 2012;147 patients)compliance was 74%,with a median LOS of 6 d.Early anastomotic fistulas were observed in 11 cases(7.7%),5(3.5%)of which required reoperation(Clavien-Dindo gradeⅢb).Two early anastomotic fistulas were treated by radiologic/endoscopic manoeuvres and 4 were treated conservatively.There were also 36(25.2%)minor complications,21(14.7%)of which were Clavien-Dindo gradeⅡand 15(10.5%)of which were Clavien-Dindo gradeⅠ.Only two patients whose course was adversely affected by the development of an anastomotic leak had been discharged before the onset of the complication itself,requiring readmission.Readmission rate within 30 d was 4%.Perioperative mortality was 1%.CONCLUSION:Our results confirm that introduction of an ERAS protocol for colorectal surgery allows quickerpostoperative recovery and shortens the length of stay compared to historical series.

文摘AIM To provide an updated assessment of the safety and efficacy of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) protocols in elective gastric cancer(GC) surgery.METHODS Pub Med, Medline, EMBASE, World Health Organization International Trial Register, and Cochrane Library were searched up to June 2017 for all available randomized controlled trials(RCTs) comparing ERAS protocols and standard care(SC) in GC surgery. Thirteen RCTs, with a total of 1092 participants, were analyzed in this study, of whom 545 underwent ERAS protocols and 547 received SC treatment.RESULTS No significant difference was observed between ERAS and control groups regarding total complications(P = 0.88), mortality(P = 0.50) and reoperation(P = 0.49). The incidence of pulmonary infection was significantly reduced(P = 0.03) following gastrectomy. However, the readmission rate after GC surgery nearly tripled under ERAS(P = 0.009). ERAS protocols significantly decreased the length of postoperative hospital stay(P < 0.00001) and medical costs(P < 0.00001), and accelerated bowel function recovery, as measured by earlier time to the first flatus(P = 0.0004) and the first defecation(P < 0.0001). Moreover, ERAS protocols were associated with a lower level of serum inflammatory response, higher serum albumin, and superior shortterm quality of life(QOL).CONCLUSION Collectively, ERAS results in accelerated convalescence, reduction of surgical stress and medical costs, improved nutritional status, and better QOL for GC patients. However, high-quality multicenter RCTs with large samples and long-term follow-up are needed to more precisely evaluate ERAS in radical gastrectomy.

文摘AIM To evaluate the safety and feasibility of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) for total laparoscopic uncut Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy after distal gastrectomy.METHODS The clinical data of 42 patients who were divided into an ERAS group(n = 20) and a control group(n = 22) were collected. The observed indicators included operation conditions, postoperative clinical indexes, and postoperative serum stress indexes. Measurement data following a normal distribution are presented as mean ± SD and were analyzed by t-test. Count data were analyzed by χ~2 test.RESULTS The operative time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, and number of patients with conversion to opensurgery were not significantly different between the two groups. Postoperative clinical indexes, including the time to initial anal exhaust, time to initial liquid diet intake, time to out-of-bed activity, and duration of hospital stay of patients without complications, were significantly different between the two groups(t = 2.045, 8.685, 2.580, and 4.650, respectively, P < 0.05 for all). However, the time to initial defecation, time to abdominal drainage-tube removal, and the early postoperative complications were not significantly different between the two groups. Regarding postoperative complications, on the first and third days after the operation, the white blood cell count(WBC) and C reactive protein(CRP) and interleukin-6(IL-6) levels in the ERAS group were significantly lower than those in the control group.CONCLUSION The perioperative ERAS program for total laparoscopic uncut Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy after distal gastrectomy is safe and effective and should be popularized. Additionally, this program can also reduce the duration of hospital stay and improve the degree of comfort and satisfaction of patients.
