文摘BACKGROUND Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)represents an innovative,protocoldriven perioperative care program designed to optimize patient outcomes.However,its application and efficacy in infants and children with Hirschsprung disease(HD)remain underexplored.AIM To delve into the impact of ERAS on perioperative recovery and the overall medical experience in HD infants and children.METHODS Thirty-eight infants and children with HD who received the Soave surgical procedure were enrolled in this case-control study.According to age-and sexstratified single-blind randomized tables,20 cases received ERAS treatment(ERAS group)and 18 cases received conventional treatment(control group).The two treatments were then compared in terms of perioperative recovery and medical experience.RESULTS Significant differences were observed in pain scores at awakening(4.2±1.3 vs 5.2±1.2,t=2.516,P=0.017)and pain duration(85.69±7.46 hours vs 67.00±8.56 hours,t=7.139,P<0.001)between the ERAS and control group.The recovery of bowel movement was earlier in the ERAS group than in the control group(borborygmus time:33.63±9.83 hours vs 44.69±16.85 hours,t=2.501,P=0.017;feeding time:36.63±9.55 hours vs 49.36±16.99 hours,t=2.884,P=0.007;anal catheter indwelling time:75.83±13.80 hours vs 93.36±20.65 hours,t=3.104,P=0.004),and fever duration(40.73±14.42 hours vs 52.63±18.69 hours,t=2.211,P=0.034).In the ERAS group,hospital stay was shorter(7.5±0.9 days vs 8.3±1.2 days)and the cost was lower(14203±2381 yuan vs 16847±3558 yuan).During the 1-month follow-up period,of the multiple postoperative complications observed,the occurrence of perianal dermatitis(PFisher=0.016)and defecation dysfunction(PFisher=0.027)were lower in the ERAS group than in the control group.CONCLUSION The ERAS protocol has the potential to profoundly enhance postoperative recovery and significantly elevate the overall comfort and quality of the medical experience,making it an indispensable approach that warrants widespread adoption.Continuous refinement through evidence-based practices is anticipated to further optimize its efficacy.
文摘BACKGROUND Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)programs provide recommendations for an optimized management of patients undergoing surgery.An ERAS program tailored on surgery for retroperitoneal sarcomas(RPS)may improve patient outcomes and it has still not been established.AIM To determine how an ERAS program tailored to RPS surgery can be agreed upon,structured,and implemented.METHODS Twenty-five candidate items from existing ERAS programs,potentially relevant for RPS surgery,were identified via literature review and expert input.These were included in a questionnaire refined through cognitive interviews and pilot testing.Expert sarcoma surgeons rated each item’s relevance and feasibility on a 6-point scale.The survey was recirculated after one year.Intra-observer reproducibility,inter-observer concordance,and agreement with the modal value of the most experienced participants were analyzed.RESULTS Thirteen sarcoma surgeons from 6 centers participated in the survey.Although surgeons agreed on several items,their overall concordance was low.After recirculating the survey,the intraobserver reproducibility was low.Interestingly,the median concordance with the reference increased for relevance and decreased for feasibility.CONCLUSION Despite interest in ERAS for RPS,surgeon concordance on item relevance and feasibility remains low,underscoring the need for collaborative efforts toward a standardized,consensus-based protocol.
文摘BACKGROUND Laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC)is the primary treatment for acute calculous cholecystitis.Although rapid recovery nursing is commonly implemented in postoperative care,its effect on acute calculous cholecystitis after LC remains unclear.AIM To analyze the impact of rapid recovery nursing in patients with acute calculous cholecystitis undergoing LC.METHODS A retrospective study was conducted with a total of 120 patients with acute calculous cholecystitis who underwent LC at our hospital between October 2023 and October 2024.The patients were divided into two groups with 60 patients in each group according to the different nursing methods:Conventional nursing and rapid recovery nursing groups.Data was recorded from the electronic medical records.Gastrointestinal recovery,pain,quality of life,and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups before and after nursing.RESULTS Following nursing intervention,the visual analog scale scores on Days 3 and 7 post-surgery in the rapid recovery nursing group were notably lower than those of the conventional nursing group(P<0.05).The rapid recovery nursing group experienced significantly reduced times for bowel sound recovery,getting out of bed,hospital stay,passing flatus,and first defecation compared with the conventional nursing group(P<0.05),thereby experiencing significantly better quality of life and nursing satisfaction(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Rapid recovery nursing effectively promoted the recovery of gastrointestinal function,reducing pain and improving the quality of life of patients who underwent LC for acute calculous cholecystitis.

文摘BACKGROUND Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)protocols have emerged as a promising approach in perioperative care.This study evaluated ERAS's impact on gastrointestinal recovery and microbiota composition following laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery.AIM To evaluate the impact of ERAS protocols on postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery and intestinal microbiota composition in patients undergoing laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery,and to identify factors associated with improved clinical outcomes and microbial diversity preservation.METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 80 patients who underwent laparoscopic D2 gastrectomy,comparing ERAS(n=40)vs traditional care(n=40).Primary outcomes included postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery and complications.Intestinal microbiota was analyzed using 16S rRNA sequencing at multiple timepoints perioperatively.RESULTS ERAS patients demonstrated faster recovery of bowel function,with earlier return of bowel sounds(16.25±6.41 hours vs 22.3±6.49 hours),first flatus(23.95±6.02 hours vs 28.45±7.12 hours),and defecation(34.95±9.34 hours vs 48.1±15.64 hours),all P<0.05.Complication rates,including antibiotic-associated diarrhea and surgical site infections,were comparable between groups.Microbial diversity indices and probiotic populations showed better preservation in the ERAS group postoperatively(P<0.05),though neither group achieved complete restoration to preoperative levels at one month.CONCLUSION These results support tailoring ERAS protocols to prioritize gut microbiome resilience through early feeding and shortened antibiotic courses,with particular benefits for younger patients.
文摘BACKGROUND Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS),a multidisciplinary and multimodal perioperative care protocol,has been widely used in several surgical fields.However,the effect of this care protocol on liver transplant recipients with endstage liver disease remains unclear.AIM To compare the clinical outcomes of the ERAS protocol and standard care(SC)for liver transplant recipients with end-stage liver disease.METHODS PubMed,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,and EMBASE databases were systematically searched to identify literature reporting the effects of the ERAS protocol on clinical outcomes in patients undergoing liver transplant recipients with endstage liver disease.All articles published to January 1,2025 were searched,followed by data extraction of the included literature and independent quality assessment.Then pooled mean difference(MD)and odds ratio(OR)with a 95%confidence interval(CI)were calculated by either a random-effects or fixed-effects model.RESULTS Overall,eight relevant studies(including two randomized controlled trials,two prospective cohort studies,and four retrospective cohort studies)involving 1220 patients(704 patients in the ERAS group and 516 patients in the SC group).The primary outcomes evaluated included intensive care unit(ICU)stay duration,hospital length of stay,overall complication rates,mortality,and 30-day readmission rates.Our findings showed that ERAS protocols significantly reduced ICU stay duration(MD:-1.21 days,95%CI:-2.08 to-0.34;P=0.006),hospital length of stay(MD:-4.91 days,95%CI:-7.45 to-2.37;P=0.0002),overall complication rates(OR=0.32,95%CI:0.22-0.46;P<0.0001),and mortality(OR=0.57,95%CI:0.33-0.98;P=0.04).However,ERAS was associated with an increased 30-day readmission rate(OR=3.20,95%CI:1.54-6.67;P=0.003).CONCLUSION The current meta-analysis indicated that ERAS protocols can significantly improve short-term clinical outcomes in liver transplant recipients,although the increased readmission rate requires further investigation.Future studies should aim to refine ERAS protocols and explore their long-term efficacy and underlying mechanisms.

文摘BACKGROUND The enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)perioperative management framework has been well-documented to improve surgical outcomes and alleviate financial burdens for patients.Against the backdrop of a rapidly aging global population,the incidence of gastric cancer(GC)among elderly individuals continues to increase.AIM To validate the feasibility and safety of the ERAS protocol in elderly GC patients,thereby enhancing its evidence-based medical foundation.METHODS A retrospective analysis of 161 GC patients who underwent ERAS between January 2022 and January 2024 was conducted.The subjects included 79 young patients(<65 years)and 82 elderly patients(≥65 years).The rates of ERAS compliance,postoperative ventilation time,postoperative hospital stay,reoperation rate,mortality rate,postoperative inflammatory markers C-reactive protein(CRP),white blood cells(WBCs),IL-2,IL-6,and the rate of postoperative complications(anastomotic leakage,incision infection,pulmonary infection)were compared between these two groups.RESULTS The incidence of complications in the elderly group was significantly higher than that in the young group,and included hypertension(P=0.002),diabetes(P=0.005),respiratory disease(P=0.034),and heart disease(P=0.016).In terms of American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA)grading indicators,the overall ASA grade in the elderly group was biased toward grade II,which was significantly higher than that in the young group(P<0.001).There was no significant difference in sex,body mass index,preoperative albumin,preoperative WBCs,TNM classification,differentiation,number of lymph node metastasis,and preoperative IL-6 between the two groups.There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of operative method,surgical approach,conversion to open surgery,operation time,intraoperative bleeding volume,and number of lymph nodes dissected(all P values>0.05).There were no significant differences between the two groups in ERAS completion rate,reoperation,postoperative first ventilation time,postoperative hospital stays,postoperative anastomotic leakage,postoperative incision infection,postoperative pulmonary infection,and serum inflammatory markers(WBCs,CRP and IL-6)on postoperative day 1 and 3(all P values>0.05).No patients in either group died within 30 days after surgery.CONCLUSION The application of ERAS protocols in elderly patients is feasible and safe,and its management measures are universally applicable to patients of different ages.
文摘BACKGROUND Gastric cancer predominantly affects the elderly,who face significant challenges due to high postoperative complications and stress.These challenges include co-morbidities,reduced physiological reserves,and increased risks of infections and delayed healing.Traditional postoperative care often falls short in addressing these issues effectively.Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)principles have revolutionized surgical care by reducing stress and promoting recovery through a holistic approach.ERAS emphasizes preoperative optimization,intraoperative care,and postoperative rehabilitation tailored to patient needs.Despite its recog-nized benefits,the impact of continuity nursing care within the ERAS framework on elderly gastric cancer patients remains underexplored.This study examines the influence of ERAS-based continuity nursing care on postoperative satisfaction,inflammation,stress,and quality of life in elderly patients undergoing gastric cancer resection.AIM To investigate the effects of ERAS-based continuity nursing care on postoperative satisfaction,inflammation,stress,and quality of life in elderly gastric cancer pa-tients.METHODS A retrospective cohort analysis was conducted on 322 elderly patients who under-went gastric cancer resection between January 2020 and January 2022.Patients were assigned to a routine care group(n=156)or an ERAS-control(ERAS-C)group(n=166).Data collected included demographic information,inflammatory and stress markers,satisfaction scores using the patient satisfaction questionnaire-18,and quality of life measured using the European Organi-zation for Research and Treatment of Cancer 22-item quality of life questionnaire specific to gastric cancer.RESULTS The ERAS-C group exhibited significantly lower postoperative interleukin-6 levels than the routine care group(12.97±4.02 pg/mL vs 14.37±3.86 pg/mL;P=0.002).This finding indicates that the ERAS-C group experienced reduced inflammation.The ERAS-C group also had a higher cluster of differentiation(CD)4:CD8 ratio than the routine care group(2.34±0.35 vs 2.13±0.61;P<0.001),suggesting the former’s enhanced immune response.Postoperative stress markers,including norepinephrine,cortisol,and aldosterone,were significantly lower in the ERAS-C group than in the routine care group(P<0.05 for all).Compared with the routine care group,the ERAS-C group showed increased nursing satisfaction scores(80.36±7.24 vs 75.23±7.03;P<0.001)and improved quality of life indicators,such as reduced dysphagia and pain,(P<0.05).The ERAS-C group also experienced fewer complic-ations than the routine care group(5.42%vs 11.54%,P=0.048).CONCLUSION Continuity nursing care within the ERAS framework significantly enhances postoperative outcomes for elderly gastric cancer patients by reducing inflammation,stress,and complications while improving satisfaction and qua-lity of life.
文摘BACKGROUND Prolonged recovery following colorectal cancer(CRC)surgery can result in physiological discomfort and psychological stress,underscoring the importance of effective perioperative care to enhance patient outcomes.AIM To evaluate the impact of multidisciplinary collaborative enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)nursing on patients undergoing CRC surgery.METHODS This study included 100 patients who underwent CRC surgery between August 2022 and August 2024.Patients were divided into two groups based on the perioperative nursing approach.The control group(n=50)received conventional nursing care,whereas the observation group(n=50)received multidisciplinary collaborative ERAS nursing.Postoperative recovery time,disease perception,pain levels,coping strategies,self-management efficacy,and quality of life were compared between the two groups.RESULTS Compared with the control group,the observation group exhibited significantly shorter times to ambulation,gastrointestinal motility,first meal intake,and hospital stay(P<0.05).No significant differences were observed in pre-nursing indicators between the two groups(P>0.05).After nursing,both groups showed improvements in disease perception scores,self-management efficacy,and quality of life scores,along with reductions in pain levels and coping strategy scores,except for the confrontative and venting dimensions.The observation group demonstrated significantly greater improvements in these scores,with significant intergroup and intragroup differences(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Multidisciplinary collaborative ERAS nursing can facilitate postoperative recovery in patients with CRC,enhance disease cognition,alleviate pain,and encourage active coping,thereby improving self-management efficacy and quality of life.
文摘BACKGROUND Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)guidelines have been established for multiple types of adult surgeries.However,ERAS guidelines tailored to pediatric surgeries remain to be developed.AIM To evaluate the clinical outcomes of ERAS protocols in pediatric laparoscopic Meckel’s diverticulum resection.METHODS This retrospective cohort study analyzed 78 consecutive pediatric cases treated between January 2017 and March 2025.Patients were divided into:Traditional care group(n=38):January 2017-December 2020;ERAS protocol group(n=40):January 2021-March 2025.We compared perioperative outcomes,including clinical recovery parameters and laboratory markers,to assess protocol efficacy.RESULTS All procedures were completed laparoscopically by the same surgical team without conversion.Baseline characteristics,including demographics,diverticulum location,and intraoperative parameters(operative time,blood loss),were comparable between groups(all P>0.05).The ERAS protocol demonstrated significantly shorter postoperative length of stay(7.55±1.52 days vs 10.40±3.59 days,P<0.001)while complication rates were numerically lower in the ERAS group(17.50%vs 13.16%,P=0.595).Additional benefits of ERAS implementation included:Reduced intravenous fluid requirements(5.00 mL/kg/hour vs 8.00 mL/kg/hour),accelerated gastrointestinal recovery(first flatus:2.00 days vs 3.00 days),lower pain scores(P<0.001),earlier total enteral nutrition achievement(5.00 days vs 6.50 days)and shorter intravenous therapy duration(6.00 days vs 8.00 days;all P<0.001).ERAS patients also showed reduced drainage utilization(P<0.05)and improved inflammatory marker profiles postoperatively[neutrophils:(5.98±2.02)×10^(9)/L vs(8.01±3.98)×10^(9)/L];median Creactive protein:13.6 mg/L 7 vs 19.63 mg/L).Glycemic control was superior in the ERAS group despite higher induction levels(both P<0.05).Parental satisfaction(92.50%vs 86.84%)and 30-day readmission rates(2.50%vs 2.63%)showed no significant differences.CONCLUSION ERAS protocols safely optimize recovery in children undergoing laparoscopic Meckel’s diverticulum resection,significantly reducing length of stay while improving pain management and overall clinical outcomes.These findings support the adoption of ERAS in pediatric intestinal surgery.
文摘Gastric cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis(PC)remains a formidable challenge in oncological care,especially regarding surgical intervention.Integrating enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)protocols into gastrectomy with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy has emerged as a promising approach.This minireview explores the influence of ERAS on surgical and oncological outcomes in this multifaceted procedure.Recent evidence suggests that ERAS,comprising multimodal strategies,improves postoperative recovery,reduces complications,and enhances quality of life.It may also contribute to better survival outcomes by minimizing perioperative morbidity and thereby facilitating the timely initiation of adjuvant therapy.Mechanistically,ERAS promotes early mobilization,attenuates postoperative immunosuppression,and supports timely adjuvant therapies,which are crucial in managing carcinomatosis.This minireview underscores the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration and individualized patient care to maximize ERAS benefits.Large-scale,prospective investigations are warranted to validate these findings and refine ERAS protocols for this specialized patient cohort.Further research will facilitate ongoing advancements in oncological surgery and perioperative care,ultimately improving outcomes for patients with gastric cancer and PC.
文摘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.
文摘BACKGROUND Surgical resection is the primary treatment for gastric cancer,but it often leads to slow recovery,high complications,and poor psychological health.The effectiveness of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)as a new nursing model postsurgery remains uncertain.AIM To investigate the clinical effect of accelerated recovery nursing program based on multidisciplinary collaboration model in gastric cancer surgery.METHODS A total of 120 patients who underwent radical gastrectomy at our hospital from January 2023 to December 2024 were included in the study.They were divided into two groups of 60 each:The control group,which received routine care,and the study group,which received ERAS based on multidisciplinary collaboration.Both groups received care until discharge.We compared gastrointestinal recovery,psychological status,Short Form 36 Health Survey scores,Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index,complications,and nursing satisfaction between the two groups.RESULTS The study group had significantly shorter defecation time,bowel sound recovery time,and flatus time compared to the control group(P<0.05).The Hamilton Anxiety Scale and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale scores were also significantly lower in the study group(P<0.05).Additionally,the study group reported better sleep quality(P<0.05)and had fewer postoperative complications.Their Short Form 36 Health Survey scores and nursing satisfaction were higher than those of the control group,with all differences being statistically significant(P<0.05).CONCLUSION The ERAS based on multidisciplinary collaboration in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy can accelerate postoperative recovery,reduce the occurrence of complications,and improve psychological state,quality of life,sleep quality and nursing satisfaction.
文摘BACKGROUND Limited evidence exists regarding the role of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)protocols in optimizing pain management and functional recovery after colorectal cancer(CRC)surgery.AIM To evaluate the impact of ERAS protocols on postoperative pain management and functional recovery in patients undergoing CRC surgery.METHODS A total of 109 patients with CRC admitted to The Third Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University between June 2021 and June 2024 were enrolled in this study.They were divided into two groups:A control group(n=50)receiving standard perioperative care and an observation group(n=59)managed under an ERAS protocol.Clinical outcomes,including postoperative pain intensity[assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)],functional recovery indicators(time to first ambulation,bowel sound recovery,first anal gas discharge,and first defecation),average sleep duration on postoperative day 3,sleep quality(measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index),length of hospitalization,quality of life(evaluated using the Short Form 36 Health Survey),and incidence of postoperative complications(e.g.,surgical site infection,pulmonary infection,abdominal distension/pain,and intestinal obstruction),were systematically compared between the two groups.RESULTS The observation group exhibited significantly lower VAS scores at 72 hours postoperatively,shorter durations of maximum VAS scores,earlier recovery of functional indicators(time to first ambulation,bowel sound recovery,first anal gas discharge,and first defecation),and shorter hospitalization compared with the control group.Additionally,average sleep duration on postoperative day 3 was significantly longer in the observation group.Furthermore,the observation group demonstrated significantly improved sleep quality(lower Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scores)and higher quality of life(higher Short Form 36 Health Survey scores across all domains)than both the baseline and control groups.The incidence of total postoperative complications was also significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group.CONCLUSION ERAS protocols are highly effective in relieving postoperative pain,accelerating functional recovery,and improving overall clinical outcomes in patients with CRC undergoing surgery,supporting their broader clinical application.
文摘BACKGROUND Traditional postoperative nursing methods implemented after laparoscopic hepatectomy often leads to slow patient recovery.As a new nursing mode,enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)has been widely used in the peri-and postoperative care of patients.However,its effects after laparoscopic hepatectomy remains unclear.AIM To explore the influence of nursing under the ERAS concept on time to first ambulation and complications after laparoscopic hepatectomy.METHODS Data from 119 patients,who underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy for various indications between January 2020 and March 2025,were divided into 2 groups according to nursing mode:Observation[nursing based on the ERAS concept(n=59)],and control[basic nursing(n=60)].Time to first ambulation,complications,length of hospital stay,and numerical rating scale(NRS)scores were compared between the groups.Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 26.0(IBM Corp.,Armonk,NY,United States).Differences with P<0.05 were considered statistically significant.RESULTS Findings indicated that after post-nursing intervention,the observation group experienced significantly sooner initial discharge times and shorter hospital stays than the control group(P<0.05).The NRS score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).The observation group experienced a significantly lower incidence of postoperative complications than the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Operating room nursing based on the ERAS concept significantly shortens the time to first ambulation,reduces the incidence of postoperative complications,and improves patient quality of life after laparoscopic hepatectomy.

文摘Objective:To systematically explore the effectiveness of combining Enhanced Recovery After Surgery(ERAS)nursing and empathy intervention for postoperative patients with glioma.Methods:A total of 54 patients with glioma undergoing surgical treatment were selected for the study.The patients were admitted to the hospital between April 2023 and April 2025.The patients were divided into an observation group(n=27)and a control group(n=27)based on a random number table method.Relevant intervention indicators were compared between the two groups.Results:Compared with the control group,the postoperative recovery indicators in the observation group showed significant differences(P<0.05).After intervention,the scores of stress psychological indicators,FMA,NHISS,and ADL in the observation group were all better than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The combined application of empathy intervention and ERAS nursing effectively regulates the postoperative stress psychological state of patients with glioma,significantly improves their limb and neurological functions as well as daily living abilities,accelerates postoperative recovery,and reduces complications.This approach is feasible for wider implementation.

文摘Objective Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)protocols have revolutionized postoperative care by integrating minimally invasive techniques and patient-centered strategies to reduce physical and psychological trauma.However,the cognitive and experiential dimensions of surgical incisions under ERAS remain underexplored,particularly in non-Western populations.This study aims to explore patients’perceptions and preferences regarding laparoscopic incisions under ERAS,providing evidence to optimize incision planning and perioperative education.Methods A qualitative descriptive study was conducted at the Department of Surgery,Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine,between November 2022 and February 2023.The participants were adults(≥18 years)who underwent elective laparoscopic abdominal surgery under ERAS,excluding those with cognitive impairments,language barriers,or emergency procedures.Semi-structured interviews,covering physical function,social function,emotional function,self and others’acceptance,and confidence in the nature and treatment of the disease,were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim and guided by a thematic framework co-developed by surgeons,nurses,and psychologists.The data were analyzed via the framework method to identify themes related to incision experiences.Results This qualitative study included 16 participants,8(50%)females and 6(37.5%)cancer patients,with a mean age of 41.5±12.2 years.Qualitative analysis revealed that the participants experienced minimal psychological distress and great emphasis on pain management and expressed specific concerns regarding the location,size,and cosmetic appearance of the incision.They also voiced high expectations for preventing incision complications and sought information regarding postoperative care.There was notable variation in preferences regarding the choice of incision site before surgery.Participants with cancer focused on disease cure rather than aesthetics.Conclusion Personalized preoperative discussions,incision site selection,and postoperative education are critical for increasing patient satisfaction.Laparoscopic incisions under ERAS minimally impact psychological well-being,but location-specific discomfort and aesthetic preferences require attention.
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”.
