METHODS: A randomized, controlled clinical trial was conducted from November 2011 to August 2012 in the Department of Digestive Surgery, Xijing Hospital of Digestive Diseases, the Fourth Military Medical University. A total of 122 gastric cancer patients who met the selection criteria were randomized into FTS and conventional care groups on the first day of hospitalization. All patients received elective standard D2 total gastrectomy. Clinical outcomes, including duration of flatus and defecation, white blood cell count, postoperative pain, duration of postoperative stay, cost of hospitalization and complications were recorded and evaluated.Two specially trained doctors who were blinded to the treatment were in charge of evaluating postoperative outcomes, discharge and follow-up. RESULTS: A total of 119 patients finished the study, including 60 patients in the conventional care group and 59 patients in the FTS group. Two patients were excluded from the FTS group due to withdrawal of consent. One patient was excluded from the conventional care group because of a non-resectable tumor. Compared with the conventional group, FTS shortened the duration of flatus (79.03 ± 20.26 hvs 60.97 ± 24.40 h, P = 0.000) and duration of defecation (93.03 ± 27.95 h vs 68.00 ± 25.42 h, P = 0.000), accelerated the decrease in white blood cell count [P < 0.05 on postoperative day (POD) 3 and 4], alleviated pain in patients after surgery (P < 0.05 on POD 1, 2 and 3), reduced complications (P < 0.05), shortened the duration of postoperative stay (7.10 ± 2.13 dvs 5.68 ± 1.22 d,P = 0.000), reduced the cost of hospitalization (43783.25 ± 8102.36 RMBvs 39597.62 ± 7529.98 RMB,P = 0.005), and promoted recovery of patients. CONCLUSION: FTS could be safely applied in radical total gastrectomy to accelerate clinical recovery of gastric cancer patients.展开更多

Dexmedetomidine might be effective in combination with sevoflurane for anesthesia, but prospective randomized controlled clinical trials with which to verify this hypothesis are lacking. In total, 120 patients who underwent embolization of an intracranial aneurysm were recruited from Anhui Provincial Hospital and Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University of China and randomly allocated to two groups. After intraoperative administration of 2% to 3% sevoflurane inhalation, one group of patients received pump-controlled intravenous injection of 1.0 ~tg/kg dexmedetomidine for 15 minutes followed by maintenance with 0.3 ~tg/kg/h until the end of surgery; the other group of patients only underwent pump-controlled infusion of saline. Bispectral index monitoring revealed that dexmedetomidine-assisted anesthesia can shorten the recovery time of spon- taneous breathing, time to eye opening, and time to laryngeal mask removal. Before anesthetic induction and immediately after laryngeal mask airway removal, the glucose and lactate levels were low, the S100~ and neuron-specific enolase levels were low, the perioperative blood pressure and heart rate were stable, and postoperative delirium was minimal. These findings indicate that dexmedetomidine can effectively assist sevoflurane for anesthesia during surgical embolization of intracranial aneurysms, shorten the time to consciousness and extubation, reduce the stress response and energy metabolism, stabilize hemodynamic parameters, and reduce adverse reactions, thereby reducing the damage to the central nervous system.

This study aimed to conduct a prospective study to determine the effects of fast-track surgery on prognosis after liver transplantation. METHODS: This was a prospective, single-blinded, randomized study. One hundred twenty-eight patients undergoing liver transplantation were selected for the fast-track (FT group, n=54) or conventional process (NFT group, n=74). The primary endpoints were intensive care unit (ICU) stay and hospital stay. The secondary endpoints were as follows: operative time, anhepatic phase time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative blood transfusion volume, postoperative complications, readmission rate, and postoperative mortality. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in preoperative demographics between the two groups. The median ICU stay was 2 days (range 1-7 days) in the FT group and 5 days (range 3-12 days) in the NFT group (P<0.01). Furthermore, the hospital stay was also significantly reduced in the FT group (P<0.01). The operative time, anhepatic phase time, intraoperative blood loss, and intraoperative blood transfusion volume were decreased in the FT group compared with the NFT group (P<0.05). Based on Spearman correlation analysis, the ICU stay and hospital stay may be positively correlated with operative time, anhepatic phase time and intraoperative blood loss. There were no differences in the incidence of postoperative complications, readmissions, and postoperative mortality between the two groups. CONCLUSION: Fast-track procedures effectively reduce the ICU stay and hospital stay without adversely affecting prognosis. This study demonstrated that fast-track protocols are safe and feasible in liver transplantation.展开更多

The number of HIV infections has decreased and the number of people on antiretroviral therapy is increased. This all is possible by strong political commitments and heavy investments in the fight against HIV. Pakistan is among few Asian countries in which HIV cases are increasing year by year since 1990. There are 94000 cases of HIV in Pakistan and only 14000 are registered with government. The main source of HIV infection in Pakistan is the use of contaminated injection equipment among people who inject drugs(PWID). The overall prevalence of HIV among PWID in Pakistan is 27.2%. There are five cities in Pakistan in which HIV prevalence is above 40% in PWIDs. In June 2016, United Nations political declaration on acquired immune deficiency syndrome(AIDS) provided a global mandate to fast-track the AIDS response over the next five years to achieve the targets in Sustainable Development Goals. To achieve the targets in fasttrack AIDS response, the global leaders showed strong commitments to invest $ 26 billion per year by 2020. Pakistan needs to speed up its HIV control program. There is a dire need to locate all HIV positive people and enroll them in the treatment program. Pakistan also needs to calculate exact number of people living with HIV, increase HIV treatment centers and increase HIV awareness. Recently, Global Fund invested handsome money in the fight against HIV. Let's hope the country will have effective HIV control strategy to achieve the HIV elimination target by 2030.展开更多

Methods: Seventy-three adult surgery patients underwent a standardized general anesthetic. Patients were evaluated with the modified Aldrete, Fast-Track and SPEEDS criteria immediately before leaving the OR and then 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes after arrival in the recovery area. Results: Significantly more patients met phase I bypass criteria when evaluated with Modified Aldrete (90%) and Fast-Track (94%) as compared to SPEEDS (77%) (p 0.0429 modified Aldrete vs. SPEEDS, p 0.0038 Fast-Track vs. SPEEDS). However, SPEEDS was more sensitive having a lower number of patients meeting phase II criteria yet requiring phase I intervention (32%) vs. Fast-track (43%) and Modified Aldrete (44%) (p 0.001 SPEEDS vs. modified Aldrete and Fast-Track). SPEEDS was more accurate (74%) in predicting which patients should move directly to phase II compared to modified Aldrete (42%) (p 0.001) and Fast-track (59%) (p = 0.05). Conclusion: SPEEDS criteria are as specific and more sensitive in determining phase I nursing interventions for ambulatory surgery patients when compared to Fast-Track and modified Aldrete criteria.展开更多

This study aimed to conduct a prospective study to determine the effects of fast-track surgery on prognosis after liver transplantation. METHODS: This was a prospective, single-blinded, randomized study. One hundred twenty-eight patients undergoing liver transplantation were selected for the fast-track (FT group, n=54) or conventional process (NFT group, n=74). The primary endpoints were intensive care unit (ICU) stay and hospital stay. The secondary endpoints were as follows: operative time, anhepatic phase time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative blood transfusion volume, postoperative complications, readmission rate, and postoperative mortality. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in preoperative demographics between the two groups. The median ICU stay was 2 days (range 1-7 days) in the FT group and 5 days (range 3-12 days) in the NFT group (P<0.01). Furthermore, the hospital stay was also significantly reduced in the FT group (P<0.01). The operative time, anhepatic phase time, intraoperative blood loss, and intraoperative blood transfusion volume were decreased in the FT group compared with the NFT group (P<0.05). Based on Spearman correlation analysis, the ICU stay and hospital stay may be positively correlated with operative time, anhepatic phase time and intraoperative blood loss. There were no differences in the incidence of postoperative complications, readmissions, and postoperative mortality between the two groups. CONCLUSION: Fast-track procedures effectively reduce the ICU stay and hospital stay without adversely affecting prognosis. This study demonstrated that fast-track protocols are safe and feasible in liver transplantation.
文摘AIM:To analyze our results after the introduction of a fast-track(FT) program after laparoscopic liver surgery in our Hepatobiliarypancreatic Unit.METHODS:All patients(43) undergoing laparoscopic liver surgery between March 2004 and March 2010 were included and divided into two consecutive groups:Control group(CG) from March 2004 until December 2006 with traditional perioperative cares(17 patients) and fast-track group(FTG) from January 2007 until March 2010 with FT program cares(26 patients).Primary endpoint was the influence of the program on the postoperative stay,the amount of re-admissions,morbidity and mortality.Secondarily we considered duration of surgery,use of drains,conversion to open surgery,intensive cares needs and transfusion.RESULTS:Both groups were homogeneous in age and sex.No differences in technique,time of surgery or conversion to open surgery were found,but more malignant diseases were operated in the FTG,and then transfusions were higher in FTG.Readmissions and morbidity were similar in both groups,without mortality.Postoperative stay was similar,with a median of 3 for CG vs 2.5 for FTG.However,the 80.8% of patients from FTG left the hospital within the first 3 d after surgery(58.8% for CG).CONCLUSION:The introduction of a FT program after laparoscopic liver surgery improves the recovery of patients without increasing complications or re-admissions,which leads to a reduction of the stay and costs.
文摘BACKGROUND The brain is the most complex organ in the human body.Treatment for a glioma always involves a multi-disciplinary team.Nursing care in fast-track surgery or enhanced recovery after surgery is such kind of work implemented by an interdisciplinary team to provide services to patients to improve their outcomes.AIM To explore the effects of nursing care in fast-track surgery on postoperative pain,psychological state,and patient satisfaction with nursing for glioma.METHODS From June 2018 to June 2020,138 patients who underwent operation for glioma at Cancer Hospital Affiliated to Chongqing University were selected.They were categorized into groups according to different nursing care that they received.Of them,69 patients receiving nursing care in fast-track surgery were included in an experimental group,and 69 patients receiving conventional postoperative nursing were included in a control group.Visual analogue scale was used to evaluate postoperative pain in the two groups immediately after the operation and at 3 d after the operation.Self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)and self-rating depression scale(SDS)were used to evaluate the psychological status of patients immediately after operation and on the 3rd postoperative day.A self-made satisfaction scale for patient satisfaction with nursing was used to evaluate and compare patient satisfaction with nursing between the two groups.RESULTS Time to excretion,time to out-of-bed activities,and length of hospital stay were significantly shorter in the observation group than in the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in duration of operative time or intraoperative bleeding between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in postoperative pain score between the two groups(P>0.05).The pain score was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group at 3 d after the operation(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in postoperative SAS or SDS score between the two groups(P>0.05).SAS and SDS scores were significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group at 3 d after operation(P<0.05).The rate of patient satisfaction with nursing was 94.2%in the observation group,which was significantly higher than that(81.2%)of the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Nursing care in fast-track surgery can relieve postoperative pain,anxiety,and depression,and improve patient satisfaction with nursing in patients with glioma,which is worthy of clinical application.
文摘Purpose:To investigate the efficacy of applying fast-track surgery(FTS)to elderly patients undergoing radical resection of colorectal cancer.Methods:Elderly patients undergoing radical resection of colorectal cancer received FTS(n=31)or routine(n=31)nursing care.The time to first anal exhaust,oral feeding and leaving the bed,duration of postoperative hospital stay and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results:Patients receiving FTS nursing demonstrated significantly shorter times to exhaust,oral feeding and leaving the bed compared with those receiving routine nursing(all p<0.01).Furthermore,there were significantly fewer incidences of postoperative pulmonary and urinary tract infections and intestinal adhesion in patients receiving FTS nursing(all p<0.05).Conclusion:Application of FTS in elderly patients undergoing radical resection of colorectal cancer facilitates an early rehabilitation after surgery,but places higher demands on nursing care.

文摘Objective:To evaluate the value of fast-track surgery(FTS)in gynecological laparoscopy during the perioperative period.Methods:The clinical data of 234 patients who underwent gynecological laparoscopy from January to December in 2018 were collected.Of note,117 patients received a routine nursing method(control group),and 117 patients received the FTS nursing method(observation group).Results:Compared with the control group,FTS group had a quicker postoperative bowel function recovery,earlier to get out of bed,and a lower anxiety level(P<0.05);The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting of two groups had no statistical difference.Conclusions:The application of FTS in gynecological laparoscopy is safe,effective,and worth promoting.
文摘BACKGROUND Few series have reported the utility of fast-track protocols(FTP)in minimally invasive liver surgery.AIM To report the applicability of FTP in minimally invasive liver surgery and to correlate with difficulty scores.METHODS The series of patients undergoing minimally invasive liver surgery from 2014 was analyzed.Iwate,Southampton and Gayet’s scores were compared as predictors of FTP adherence.Accomplishment of FTP was considered within 24-h,48-h and 72-h.Multivariate models were performed to define discharge<24 h,<72 h,complications and readmissions.RESULTS From 160 cases,78 were candidates for FTP,of which 22(28.2%),19(24.4%)and 14(17.9%)were discharged in<24-h,48-h and 72-h,respectively(total=71.5%).Iwate,Southampton and Gayet’s scores achieved area under the receiver operating characteristic values for<24-h stay of 0.780,0.687 and 0.698,respectively.Sensitivity and specificity values for the best score(Iwate)were 87.7%and 66.7%,respectively(cutoff=5.5).In multivariate models,<72 h stay and complications revealed body mass index as a risk factor independent from difficulty scores.CONCLUSION The development of aggressive FTP is feasible and<24-h stay can be achieved even in moderate and advanced complexity cases.Difficulty scores,including body mass index value,may be useful to predict which cases may adhere to these protocols.
文摘In last fifteen years remarkable success in the fight against human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) is achieved globally. The number of HIV infections has decreased and the number of people on antiretroviral therapy is increased. This all is possible by strong political commitments and heavy investments in the fight against HIV. Pakistan is among few Asian countries in which HIV cases are increasing year by year since 1990. There are 94000 cases of HIV in Pakistan and only 14000 are registered with government. The main source of HIV infection in Pakistan is the use of contaminated injection equipment among people who inject drugs(PWID). The overall prevalence of HIV among PWID in Pakistan is 27.2%. There are five cities in Pakistan in which HIV prevalence is above 40% in PWIDs. In June 2016, United Nations political declaration on acquired immune deficiency syndrome(AIDS) provided a global mandate to fast-track the AIDS response over the next five years to achieve the targets in Sustainable Development Goals. To achieve the targets in fasttrack AIDS response, the global leaders showed strong commitments to invest $ 26 billion per year by 2020. Pakistan needs to speed up its HIV control program. There is a dire need to locate all HIV positive people and enroll them in the treatment program. Pakistan also needs to calculate exact number of people living with HIV, increase HIV treatment centers and increase HIV awareness. Recently, Global Fund invested handsome money in the fight against HIV. Let's hope the country will have effective HIV control strategy to achieve the HIV elimination target by 2030.

文摘Fast-track surgery is a combination of multiple disciplines,using a series of evidence-based medical measures to promote the recovery of gastrointestinal function,reduce complications and promote the rapid recovery of patients.The concept of accelerated rehabilitation runs through the whole process before,during and after operation,and the perioperative surgical nursing plan is improved,which is expected to provide reference for medical staff to carry out perioperative nursing.
文摘Background: The authors have developed criteria utilizing the mnemonic “SPEEDS” (saturation, pain, extremity movement, emesis, dialogue, stable vitals signs) to evaluate and predict which patients would not require phase I nursing intervention and could transition to phase II recovery. Methods: Seventy-three adult surgery patients underwent a standardized general anesthetic. Patients were evaluated with the modified Aldrete, Fast-Track and SPEEDS criteria immediately before leaving the OR and then 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes after arrival in the recovery area. Results: Significantly more patients met phase I bypass criteria when evaluated with Modified Aldrete (90%) and Fast-Track (94%) as compared to SPEEDS (77%) (p 0.0429 modified Aldrete vs. SPEEDS, p 0.0038 Fast-Track vs. SPEEDS). However, SPEEDS was more sensitive having a lower number of patients meeting phase II criteria yet requiring phase I intervention (32%) vs. Fast-track (43%) and Modified Aldrete (44%) (p 0.001 SPEEDS vs. modified Aldrete and Fast-Track). SPEEDS was more accurate (74%) in predicting which patients should move directly to phase II compared to modified Aldrete (42%) (p 0.001) and Fast-track (59%) (p = 0.05). Conclusion: SPEEDS criteria are as specific and more sensitive in determining phase I nursing interventions for ambulatory surgery patients when compared to Fast-Track and modified Aldrete criteria.
文摘BACKGROUND Postoperative complications(POCs)can arise in patients who underwent surgery for gastric cancer(GC).Effective nursing may help in minimizing these negative outcomes.AIM To elucidate the influence of fast-track rehabilitation(FTR)plus humanized nursing on gastrointestinal(GI)function and quality of life(QOL)of patients who underwent GC surgery.METHODS The study participants were 102 patients admitted between December 2018 and December 2020 for GC surgery,of which 52 and 50 patients who received FTR+humanized nursing(research group)and routine nursing(control group),respectively.GI function,QOL,POCs(abdominal distension,infection,GI bleeding,anastomotic leakage,and deep vein thrombosis)and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.RESULTS Compared with the control group,the research group had better GI function,which was mainly manifested by earlier food intake,shorter bowel sound recovery time,short time to first postoperative anal exhaustion and defecation,and shorter length of stay.Besides,the research group exhibited better QOL,lower overall POC rate,and higher nursing satisfaction than the control group.CONCLUSION FTR+humanized nursing not only improve the GI function and QOL of patients undergoing GC surgery but also reduce the incidence of POCs and improve nursing satisfaction.Thus,this intervention deserves popularization in clinical practice.
