Filter by:Video-Assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is the standard treatment for localized lung cancer. However, there is no consensus on analgesic management in patients undergoing VATS. The aim of the study is to compare the analgesic efficacy of thoracic epidural with that a "Bi-block" combining an Erector Spinae muscle plane Block (ESP) and a Serratus Anterior Block (SAP) in patients undergoing VATS for lung or pleural surgery. Our main hypothesis is that the analgesic efficacy of the Bi-block, assessed by morphine consumption, is not inferior to that provided by a thoracic epidural during the first 48 hours after VATS. We conducted a age, gender and type of surgery-matched retrospective cohort study in the Department of Thoracic Anesthesia of the Montpellier University Hospital (France).
Rationale: Throughout the years, there has been a rapid change in the perioperative protocols and procedures surrounding colorectal surgery. Upon the introduction of the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) program in Western countries, an improvement in postoperative outcomes was seen. Nowadays, researchers focus on further improving the current standard ERAS programs enabling an accelerated version hereof. Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility and safety of a 23-hour accelerated ERAS protocol (ERAS 2.0) for patients undergoing colorectal surgery compared to a retrospective cohort of patients who followed ERAS 1.0 for colorectal surgery. In this ERAS 2.0 protocol, patients undergoing colorectal surgery will be discharged within 23 hours after surgery. Study design: This study is an investigator-initiated, single-center prospective study. Study population: Patients aged ≥ 18 years ≤ 80 undergoing surgical resection for colorectal pathology that meet the eligibility criteria will be invited to participate in this study. Intervention: Adhering to a strict multidisciplinary and multifaceted ERAS 2.0 protocol, patients receiving elective colorectal surgery will be discharged 23-hours after surgery. Main study parameters/endpoints: Rate of the successful and safe application of the 23-hour accelerated ERAS 2.0 protocol for patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery. Success rate will be measured in readmission rate and safety will be measured with rate of serious adverse events (Clavien Dindo ≥3b). Success rate (feasibility) will also be measured in percentage of patients who were not able to be discharged 23 hours after surgery.
This prospective, randomized, single-blinded study is designed to compare the postoperative quality of recovery between propofol based total intravenous anesthesia and desflurane in patients undergoing minimally invasive nephrectomy. We hypothesize that propofol based total intravenous anesthesia can significantly improve the quality of recovery after surgery in patients with minimally invasive nephrectomy.
Colorectal surgery is a common surgery for the treatment of colon and rectal cancers as well as other bowel diseases. Recovery from colorectal surgery is difficult because of the many potential negative side effects. These side effects include surgical complications, infections, and long hospital stays. It usually takes several months for patients to recover the strength required to return to their typical daily activities. The Enhanced Recovery After Surgery program was established in Alberta in 2013 and uses several strategies to improve short-term patient recovery, including earlier discharge from hospital. Whether the ERAS program also improves long-term patient recovery, including quality of life and return to activities of daily living, is unclear. Whether the ERAS program would benefit from the addition of a prehabilitation element is unclear. Prehabilitation programs are designed to use the waiting period before colorectal surgery to better prepare patients emotionally and physically for their operation. To date, successful prehabilitation programs have used a personalized care strategy where each patient is provided specific care instructions by healthcare professionals to meet their unique exercise, nutrition, and psychological needs. This prehabilitation strategy has been criticized for not being sustainable in our healthcare system. A new prehabilitation program in response to this criticism is proposed. The prehabilitation program will be conducted in a more sustainable way by offering the program as a group class with a home-based component. ERAS patients at the Peter Lougheed Center are already offered a group class as part of the standard ERAS program. The prehabilitation class will be an extension of this group class that provides general nutrition, exercise, and anxiety-reduction/relaxation strategies to help patients prepare physically and emotionally for their operation. At this class, patients will learn to eat well, practice deep breathing exercises for relaxation, perform simple functional exercises, and to walk for exercise before their surgery. The surgical experience and outcomes of patients who received the additional prehabilitation care will be compared to those who received ERAS care only. The overall goal of the study is to better understand how ERAS supports recovery after surgery and whether a prehabilitation program offers any additional benefits to the ERAS program currently in place.
At present, there are more and more reports about enhanced recovery after surgery（ERAS）in China, but there is no ERAS treatment standard for gastrointestinal cancer, and there are many factors limiting the development of ERAS. In recent years, due to the development of minimally invasive technology, the establishment of evidence-based medicine model and the development of MDT, it makes a good solid foundation for the clinical application of ERAS. The implementation of ERAS requires the cooperation of surgeons, anesthesia management, nursing, rehabilitation and other teams. As an individualized treatment mode, ERAS focuses on the optimization of treatment for different individuals in order to acquire the best benefit of patients. Therefore, the concept of ERAS is still in the process of continuous improvement and development in China, hoping to explore the Chinese ERAS clinical pathway for gastrointestinal cancer. The purpose of this study is to optimize the clinical pathway of ERAS in the perioperative period of gastrointestinal cancer, and to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ERAS in gastrointestinal cancer.
Heavy and oncological surgery is undergoing a major evolution. Some surgical dogmas are falling and care is better rationalized. The interactions between the patient and the caregivers on the other hand, and from the caregiver to the caregiver are favored. Thus was born, about 10 years ago, the principle of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). But recovery has improved in the patient in the best possible shape in the operating room, and, during the gesture, minimize the negative effects of surgery and anesthesia. Finally, postoperatively, to re-empower the patient as quickly as possible. The interest of this study is the benefit of the quality of life of the patient being treated for cystectomy as part of an enhanced recovery program. This is to argue the diffusion of this program and the care teams for its realization.
The objective of this study is to determine if backfilling the bladder immediately post-operatively, prior to removal of the foley catheter, in patients undergoing same-day total laparoscopic hysterectomy will hasten time to first spontaneous void and time to discharge
Enhanced recovery pathways (ERP) after surgery have been shown to decrease length of stay and perioperative complications in a range of surgical specialties. To date, ERPs has not been studied in patients presenting for spine surgery. The investigators have recently developed an interdisciplinary pathway for spine surgery patients based on the latest available evidence and guidelines. The aim of this trial is to compare the investigators enhanced recovery pathway with conventional perioperative management in patients undergoing 1-2 level posterior lumbar fusion.
