BACKGROUND Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the primary method for treating cholecystitis.Traditional postoperative care has poor outcomes for patient recovery.The enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)model is increasingly applied in clinical settings.However,the impact of this nursing model on patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy remains unclear.AIM To evaluate the effects of ERAS on postoperative gastrointestinal recovery and quality of life in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy.METHODS This is a retrospective study design in which we collected clinical data from 120 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy at our hospital.Patients were divided into a control group(n=60)and a study group(n=60)based on the type of nursing intervention.The control group received conventional care,while the study group received ERAS.We assessed gastrointestinal recovery,quality of life,and nursing satisfaction before and after the nursing interventions in both groups.RESULTS After nursing care,the gastrointestinal recovery times(time to bowel sounds return,time to flatus,time to first bowel movement,and time to first meal)in the study group were significantly shorter than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences between the two groups(P<0.05).Additionally,the quality of life in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).The nursing satisfaction in the study group was also significantly higher than that in the control group,with statistically significant differences between the two groups(P<0.05).CONCLUSION In summary,compared to conventional nursing,ERAS can more rapidly promote gastrointestinal recovery and improve the quality of life in patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Further clinical application of this approach is warranted.
