Project description:Anastomotic leakage is a major and potentially mortal complication with an incidence of 10-13% after resection of the rectum. For patients showing no clinical signs of peritonitis, the traditional method has been a conservative treatment with transrectal rinsing. This treatment is often associated with a very protracted postoperative course with healing times of up to a year or more for the anastomotic leakage.
Treatment with vacuum drainage (VD) is a new method primarily developed for wound therapy.
The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of transrectal vacuum treatment on the healing of anastomotic leakage after rectum resection in a prospective, randomized, controlled multicentre trial in 60 patients found to develop clinically significant anastomotic leakages after elective rectal resection.

Project description:BackgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic has made it more difficult to maintain high quality in medical education. As online formats are often considered unsuitable, interactive workshops and seminars have particularly often been postponed or cancelled. To meet the challenge, we converted an existing interactive undergraduate elective on safety culture into an online event. In this article, we describe the conceptualization and evaluation of the elective.MethodsThe learning objectives of the safety culture elective remained unchanged, but the teaching methods were thoroughly revised and adapted to suit an online setting. The online elective was offered as a synchronous two-day course in winter semester 2020/21 during the "second wave" of the COVID-19 pandemic in Germany. At the end of each day, participating students evaluated the elective by completing an online survey. Items were rated on a six-point Likert scale. We used SPSS for data analysis.ResultsTwenty medical undergraduates completed the elective and rated it extremely positively (1.1 ± 0.2). Students regard safety culture as very important and felt the learning objectives had been achieved. Moreover, they were very satisfied with the design and content of the elective, and especially with interactive elements like role-play. Around 55% of participants would recommend continuing to offer the online elective after the pandemic.ConclusionsIt makes sense to offer undergraduate medical students online elective courses on safety culture, especially during a pandemic. The elective described here can serve as a best practice example of how to teach safety culture to undergraduates, especially when physical presence is unfeasible. Electives requiring a high degree of interaction can also function well online.

Project description:BackgroundPrograms of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery reduces morbidity and shorten recovery in patients undergoing colorectal resections for cancer. Patients presenting with more advanced disease such as T4 cancers are frequently excluded from undergoing ERAS programs due to the difficulty in applying established protocols. The primary aim of this investigation was to evaluate the possibility of applying a validated ERAS protocol in patients undergoing colorectal resection for T4 colon and rectal cancer and to evaluate the short-term outcome.MethodsSingle-center, retrospective cohort study. All patients with a clinical diagnosis of stage T4 colorectal cancer undergoing surgery between November 2016 and January 2020 were treated following the institutional fast track protocol without exclusion. Short-term postoperative outcomes were compared to those of a control group treated with conventional care and that underwent surgical resection for T4 colorectal cancer at the same institution from January 2010 to October 2016. Data from both groups were collected retrospectively from a prospectively maintained database.ResultsEighty-two patients were diagnosed with T4 cancer, 49 patients were included in the ERAS cohort and 33 in the historical conventional care cohort. Both, the mean time of tolerance to solid food diet and postoperative length of stay were significantly shorter in the ERAS group than in the control group (3.14 ± 1.76 vs 4.8 ± 1.52; p < 0.0001 and 6.93 ± 3.76 vs 9.50 ± 4.83; p = 0.0084 respectively). No differences in perioperative complications were observed.ConclusionsResults from this cohort study from a single-center registry support the thesis that the adoption of the ERAS protocol is effective and applicable in patients with colorectal cancer clinically staged T4, reducing significantly their length of stay and time of tolerance to solid food diet, without affecting surgical postoperative outcomes.

Project description:Study hypothesis: The objective of this study is to ascertain the best method of bowel preparation, prior to elective left-sided colonic surgery in terms of patient comfort and surgical efficacy. Sodium phosphate enemas (Colex) and bisacodyl (tablet and suppository) are to be compared. The occurrence of infections (wound, peritonitis) and anastomotic leaks will be monitored.
Null hypotheses are:
1. Patients in both groups experience pain and discomfort equally
2. The surgeon finds no difference in the condition of the left hemicolon intraoperatively
3. No difference in incidence of infection is found
4. No difference in incidence of anastomotic leaks is found
Primary outcome(s): Questionnaires will be used to assess the opinions of patients and surgeons. The parameters are recorded in a five point scale.

Project description:ObjectiveTo evaluate patient satisfaction and associated predictors at discharge, as well as patient experience at 30-day follow-up, in a neurosurgical enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programme.DesignA single-centre, prospective, randomised controlled study.SettingA tertiary hospital in China.ParticipantsA total of 140 neurosurgical patients aged 18-65 years old who had a single intracranial lesion and were admitted for elective craniotomy between October 2016 and July 2017 were included.InterventionsPatients were randomised into two groups: 70 patients received care according to a novel neurosurgical ERAS protocol (ERAS group) and 70 patients received conventional perioperative care (control group).Outcome measuresPatient satisfaction at discharge was evaluated using a multimodal questionnaire. A secondary analysis of patient experience regarding participation in the ERAS programme was conducted using a semistructured qualitative interview via telephone at 30-day follow-up.ResultsThe mean patient satisfaction was significantly higher in the ERAS group than in the control group at discharge (92.2±4.3 vs 86.8±7.4, p=0.0001). The most important predictors of patient satisfaction included age (OR=6.934), postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score (OR=0.184), absorbable skin suture (OR=0.007) and postoperative length of stay (LOS) (OR=0.765). Analysis on patient experience revealed five themes: information transfer, professional support, shared responsibility and active participation, readiness for discharge, and follow-up, all of which are closely related and represent positive and negative aspects.ConclusionsMeasures that include decreasing PONV VAS score, incorporating absorbable skin suture and shortening LOS seem to increase patient satisfaction in a neurosurgical ERAS programme. Analysis of data on patient experience highlights several aspects to achieve patient-centred and high-quality care. Further studies are warranted to standardise the assessment of patient satisfaction and experience in planning, employing and appraising the ERAS programme.Trial registration numberChiCTR-INR-16009662.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of this study was to compare thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) with transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block in post-operative pain management after laparoscopic colon surgery.MethodsOne hundred thirty-six patients undergoing laparoscopic colon resection randomly received either TEA or TAP with ropivacaine only. The primary endpoint was opioid requirement up to 48 h postoperatively. Intensity of pain, time to onset of bowel function, time to mobilization, postoperative complications, length of hospital stay, and patients' satisfaction with pain management were also assessed.ResultsWe observed a significant decrease in opioid consumption on the day of surgery with TEA compared with TAP block (30 mg vs 14 mg, p < 0.001). On the first two postoperative days (POD), the balance shifted to opioid consumption being smaller in the TAP group: on POD 1 (15.2 mg vs 10.6 mg; p = 0.086) and on POD 2 (9.2 mg vs 4.6 mg; p = 0.021). There were no differences in postoperative nausea/vomiting or time to first postoperative bowel movement between the groups. No direct blockade-related complications were observed and the length of stay was similar between TEA and TAP groups.ConclusionTEA is more efficient for acute postoperative pain than TAP block on day of surgery, but not on the first two PODs. No differences in pain management-related complications were detected.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Lung cancer is currently the leading malignant tumor in both domestic and foreign morbidity and mortality. Surgical treatment is the main treatment option for lung cancer. The aim of this study is to explore the effects of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) combined with respiratory function exercise combined with single-hole thoracoscopic surgery on lung cancer patients with postoperative pulmonary complications, postoperative pain, time to get out of bed, time to extubation and length of hospital stay. METHODS:A total of 240 patients who underwent endoscopic lung cancer surgery at the Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University and the Yancheng First People's Hospital from October 2017 to October 2019 were randomly divided into 4 groups, with 60 patients in each group. Patients in group A underwent single-hole thoracoscopic surgery, and preoperatively performed ERAS concept education and respiratory function training; group B used conventional 3-hole thoracoscopic surgery, and performed ERAS concept education and respiratory function training before operation; group C used conventional 3-hole thoracoscopic operation surgery, routine hospitalization education and nursing guidance, routine respiratory function training, no preoperative ERAS concept education; group D used single-hole thoracoscopic surgery, routine hospitalization education and nursing guidance, routine respiratory function training, no preoperative ERAS concept mission. The number of postoperative pulmonary complications, postoperative pain, time to get out of bed, extubation time, and hospital stay were recorded in the four groups. RESULTS:Compared with the groups B, C, and D, the incidence of pulmonary complications was significantly reduced, and the time to get out of bed, extubation time, and hospital stay were significantly shortened in group A. Compared with groups B, C, the postoperative pain was significantly reduced in group A. Compared with group C, the pulmonary complications were significantly reduced, and the time to get out of bed, extubation time and hospital stay were significantly shortened in group B. The differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative pain between group A and group D, group B and group C (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:For patients with single-hole thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery, the ERAS concept guidance can effectively reduce the incidence of pulmonary complications and postoperative pain, shorten the time to get out of bed, the time to extubate, and the length of hospital stay.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Existing data suggest that obesity correlates with airway hyper-reactivity. However, the incidence of bronchospasm during bariatric surgery in obese patients has not been well studied. METHODS:This was a prospective observational study comparing 50 obese versus 50 non obese patients undergoing elective laparoscopic surgery over a 2 year period. Bronchospasm was detected clinically by auscultation and was confirmed by measuring peak airway pressure during mechanical ventilation. Blood gases were measured at predetermined time intervals intraoperatively. Categorical variables were analyzed using Fisher's exact test, while numerical variables within and between groups were compared using repeated measures general linear model. RESULTS:The incidence of bronchospasm was significantly higher in obese compared to non obese patients (P = 0.027). Peak airway pressures and blood gases differed significantly when comparing non obese patients versus obese patients without bronchospasm versus obese patients with bronchospasm. Hypoventilation resulting in gradual increase of arterial PaCO2 was noted in all groups during surgery. CONCLUSION:The incidence of bronchospasm is higher in obese patients compared to non obese patients undergoing elective laparoscopic surgery. Airway pressures and blood gas values in obese patients are somewhere between values in non obese patients and values in patients with bronchospasm, thereby implying that obesity is associated with a state where bronchial smooth muscles are not fully relaxed. Consideration of increased airway reactivity in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery is important for improved patient care and uneventful anesthetic course.
