Filter by:Aim: To determine the impact of an evidence-based comprehensive prehabilitation (EBCPrehab) program on pre- and postoperative capacity, functional capacity and health related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients awaiting elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) or valvular surgery. Design: A single-center randomized controlled trail. SUBJECTS: Overall 160 preoperative elective cardiac surgery patients will be randomly assigned to an intervention or control group. Intervention: one-week EBCPrehab intervention, including supervised exercise, mindfulness and nutrition assessment. Control group: usual care. Main measures: At baseline, one day before surgery, three days after surgery and before discharge. The following measurements will be performed: six-minute walk test, ICU delirium, health related quality of life and flow state.
Purpose. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the implementation of the Nurse Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Coordinator (NEC), within the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) program, in relation to the compliance of patients undergoing colorectal surgery. Methods. Quasi-experimental study with a control group, an intervention group and without random assignment in a multicenter trial; between December 2021 and November 2023. Patients older than 18 years with planned elective intervention of major colorectal surgery will be included; excluding those without social support, with psychiatric illness, cognitive difficulty, planning of simultaneous or emergency surgery. In the intervention arm they will have NEC and in the control group they will not have that resource. Compliance will be the main variable of the study and, in addition, the study aims to assess secondary endpoints such as quality of life (QOL). Conclusions. NEC could increase compliance to ERAS programs, improving health outcomes and QOL perceived by the patient. The applicability in the different hospital centers could generate an opportunity to advance professionally in the nursing figure within the ERAS program. The fact of having NEC could also increase the efficiency of the program due to the cost-effectiveness of the nursing position, although this is not the object of the study. It would be applicable in improving perceived health and QOL, so it could also have an economic impact on the health system.
Laparoscopic left sectionectomy has been associated with shorter hospital stay and reduced overall morbidity compared with open left sectionectomy. Strong evidence has not, however, been provided.
