Postoperative Functional Recovery After Gastrectomy in Patients Undergoing Enhanced Recovery After Surgery: A Prospective Assessment Using Standard Discharge Criteria.

ABSTRACT: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is increasingly used in several abdominal surgeries to accelerate postoperative recovery and reduce the length of stay. The aim of this study was to investigate the pattern of functional recovery after gastrectomy in patients undergoing ERAS and to analyze factors that affect postoperative recovery.In all, 168 gastric cancer patients enrolled in a clinical trial evaluating ERAS compliance after gastrectomy were prospectively assessed with respect to postoperative functional recovery using discharge criteria, evaluating 4 major functional outcomes: adequate pain control, ability to mobilize and self-care, tolerance of oral intake, and no abnormal physical findings or laboratory test.The mean completion time of overall discharge criteria was 5.1 ?±? 3.2 days. The mean completion time for each dimension were 4.4? ±? 0.9 days for adequate pain control, 4.1? ± ?0.8 days for ability to mobilize and self-care, 4.3? ±? 1.1 days for no abnormal physical signs or laboratory test, and 4.6? ±? 1.2 days for tolerance of oral intake. The mean length of stay was 7.2 ?±? 3.2 days, and readmission rate was 2.4% (n?=?4). There was 9.5% (n?=?16) of morbidity and no hospital mortality. Female sex (P?

Project description:Importance:Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) care has been reported to be associated with improvements in outcomes after colorectal surgery compared with traditional care. Objective:To determine the association between ERAS protocols and outcomes in patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery. Design, Setting, and Participants:The Postoperative Outcomes Within Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Protocol (POWER) Study is a multicenter, prospective cohort study of 2084 consecutive adults scheduled for elective colorectal surgery who received or did not receive care in a self-declared ERAS center. Patients were recruited from 80 Spanish centers between September 15 and December 15, 2017. All patients included in this analysis had 1 month of follow-up. Exposures:Colorectal surgery and perioperative management were the exposures. Twenty-two individual ERAS items were assessed in all patients, regardless of whether they were included in an established ERAS protocol. Main Outcomes and Measures:The primary study outcome was moderate to severe postoperative complications within 30 days after surgery. Secondary outcomes included ERAS adherence, mortality, readmissions, reoperation rates, and hospital length of stay. Results:Between September 15 and December 15, 2017, 2084 patients were included in the study. Of these, 1286 individuals (61.7%) were men; mean age was 68 years (interquartile range [IQR], 59-77). A total of 879 patients (42.2%) presented with postoperative complications and 566 patients (27.2%) developed moderate to severe complications. The number of patients with moderate or severe complications was lower in the ERAS group (25.2% vs 30.3%; odds ratio [OR], 0.77; 95% CI, 0.63-0.94; P?=?.01). The overall rate of adherence to the ERAS protocol was 63.6% (IQR, 54.5%-77.3%), and the rate for patients from hospitals self-declared as ERAS was 72.7% (IQR, 59.1%-81.8%) vs non-ERAS institutions, which was 59.1% (IQR, 50.0%-63.6%; P?<?.001). Adherence quartiles among patients receiving the highest and lowest ERAS components showed that the patients with the highest adherence rates had fewer moderate to severe complications (OR, 0.34; 95% CI, 0.25-0.46; P?<?.001), overall complications (OR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.26-0.43; P?<?.001), and mortality (OR, 0.27; 95% CI, 0.07-0.97; P?=?.06) compared with those who had the lowest adherence rates. Conclusions and Relevance:An increase in ERAS adherence appears to be associated with a decrease in postoperative complications.

Project description:ObjectiveTo compare post-operative length of stay and complication rates of matched obese and non-obese patients in an enhanced recovery (ERAS) program after open gynecologic cancer surgery.MethodsWe performed an observational cohort study of patients (n=1225) undergoing open surgery from November 2014 to November 2018 at a tertiary cancer center. Patients undergoing multidisciplinary procedures, non-oncologic surgery, or procedures in addition to abdominal surgery were excluded (n=190). Obese and non-obese patients were matched by date, age, disease status, and surgical complexity. The primary outcome was post-operative length of stay. Secondary outcomes included 30-day peri-operative complications, re-operation, re-admission, opioid use, and program compliance.ResultsAfter matching, 696 patients (348 obese, 348 non-obese) with median age of 57 years (IQR 48-66) were analyzed. Obese patients had a longer median procedure time (218 min vs 192.5 min, p<0.001) and greater median estimated blood loss (300 mL vs 200 mL, p<0.001). Median (IQR) post-operative length of stay was the same for obese and non-obese patients: 3 days (IQR 2-4). Obese and non-obese patients had similar rates of grade III-IV complications (10.9% and 6.6%, respectively, p=0.06), re-operation (2.3% and 1.4%, respectively, p=0.58), and re-admission (11.8% and 8.0%, respectively, p=0.13). Grade I-II complications were more common among obese patients (62.4% vs 48.3%, p<0.001) because they had more wound complications (17.8% vs 4.9%, p<0.001). Obese patients received more opioids both during surgery (morphine equivalent dose 57.25 mg (IQR 35-72.5) vs 50 mg (IQR 25-622.5), p=0.003) and after surgery (morphine equivalent daily dose 45 mg/day (IQR 10-96.2) vs 29.37 mg/day (IQR 7.5-70), p=0.01). Obese and non-obese patients had similar ERAS program compliance (70.1% and 69.8%, respectively, p=0.32).ConclusionsNeither post-operative length of stay nor the rate of serious complications differed significantly despite longer surgeries, greater blood loss, and more opioid use among obese patients. An ERAS program was safe, effective, and feasible for obese patients with suspected gynecologic cancer.
