Filter by:laparoscopic appendectomy is most common surgical procedure necessitates evidence-based clinical pathways such as Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS). The paradigm of surgery has been shifted from open to laparoscopic. Laparoscopic appendectomy is the most common procedure performed in our institute for acute and chronic appendicitis. Pain control in ERAS is one of the key factors for improved outcomes. Surgery induced acute postoperative pain, stress response, and fatigue lead to prolonged convalescence and hospital stay. Optimal titrated safe postoperative pain management in laparoscopic appendectomy patients remains a challenge.
In this research, a pretest-posttest single group quasi-experimental model will be used. The study will be conducted to determine the effect of web-based training given to midwives and nurses on their level of knowledge regarding ERAS protocols applied in gynecological and obstetric surgery. It will be carried out with midwives and nurses working in the Gynecology and Obstetrics units (clinic, operating room, delivery room) of a state hospital located in a city in the east of Turkey. As an initiative, "web-based training on ERAS protocols applied in gynecological and obstetric surgery" will be provided to Midwives and Nurses. The pre-test data of the research will be collected face to face by the researcher between 1-30 November 2023 with midwives and nurses working in the relevant units in the relevant hospital, information will be given about the research and midwives and nurses who meet the sampling criteria will be given a "Descriptive Characteristic Form" and "ERAS Knowledge Test". will be implemented. Educational program; It will be implemented over a period of 1.5 months through a website specially prepared for midwives and nurses. After the training is completed, the "ERAS Protocols Applied in Gynecological and Obstetric Surgery" booklet will be given. In the web-based training system, the training will be uploaded 6 times with an interval of 1 week for midwives and nurses to listen to, and after the training is completed (January 15-21, 2024), the "Descriptive Feature Form" and "ERAS Knowledge Test" will be re-applied and post-test data will be collected.
This study aims to figure out how small-bore pigtail catheter or large-bore chest tube for postoperative drainage impact on analgesic efficacy and actually enhance recovery postoperatively.
The implementation of ERAS protocol in elective cranial neurosurgical cases in a tertiary hospital.
Acute appendicitis is the most common abdominal emergency with more than 15 million cases reported worldwide. Although appendectomy is considered a safe surgical procedure, the incidence of complications is up to 10%. The Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) has developed guidelines to improve postoperative patient outcomes. The protocol, which consists of more than 20 interventions in the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative periods, shows that early discharge can be possible with multidisciplinary care given to surgical patients without risking patient safety.
In recent years , the popularity of ultrasound-guided fascial plane blocks has increased in achieving an effective postoperative analgesia and hence achieving enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) . Mastering the use of ultrasound encourages anesthetists on the frequent use of regional anesthesia . Fascial plane blocks are increasingly becoming a part of multimodal analgesia as an alternative pain management strategy in cardiac surgery. Various regional techniques especially paravertebral plane blocks have been recently described to reduce the postoperative pain in cardiac surgery with enhanced recovery . Ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block is a recently introduced technique for regional analgesia in thoracic neuropathic pain, rib fractures, and breast surgeries. This study aims to compare between the two techniques regarding their peri-operative analgesic effect and their impact on enhanced recovery after surgery.
Osteoarthrosis (OA) is a chronic, degenerative disease characterized by joint wear and tear. It is a major cause of pain, disability and decreased quality of life. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) represent an effective alternative for the treatment and pain control of patients with osteoarthritis. The "fast-track" program is translated as enhanced recovery or fast-track, and consists of the active participation of patients in their own recovery and immediate post-surgical mobilization, thanks to preoperative education through an educational workshop, the type of analgesia used and the empowerment of the patient in his or her own recovery. The problem of anxiety in the surgical patient and the role of nurses in it has been widely studied for some decades, as shown in the scientific literature. Our experience as professionals of a hospital unit of orthopedic surgery and traumatology shows us the reality of this situation and the investigators find that when discharging patients who have undergone surgery and are discharged after 24 hours, the patient almost globally manifests a series of expressions, behaviors or behaviors that are related to anxious behavior, a completely natural human response of a patient who does not know what he is going to face. This leads us to detect a need to reinforce the information provided at discharge and the accompaniment during the first weeks after discharge. Anxiety is a complex reaction to potentially dangerous situations or stimuli. It is an alarm signal that triggers a series of responses to cope with the situation. Anxiety is an emotional response that encompasses unpleasant cognitive aspects and physiological alterations that manifest themselves with high nervousness and even motor alterations. Surgery is perceived by the patient as an important stress factor that can translate into nervousness and anxiety. Anxiety is almost always present during surgery, to a greater or lesser degree, both preoperatively and postoperatively. Several studies have shown that good preoperative information reduces preoperative and postoperative anxiety. Patients need information about their process since dispelling their doubts will minimize anxiety. Currently there is very little information on anxiety during the whole surgical process. Therefore, in the present project the investigators propose to carry out a research study to analyze whether nursing intervention has beneficial results in the surgical patient.
The purpose of this study is to compare two different approaches to the care patients receive before, during and after their spinal surgery and to determine if either approach has a significant difference in patient outcomes, opioid use, and recovery following spine surgery. The study will compare the standard-of-care surgical approach taken at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania with the Enhanced Recovery After Spine Surgery (ERASS) pathway. ERASS is a program that will provide additional education before your surgery, reduce your opioid consumption, and provide earlier physical therapy than you would normally receive under the standard-of-care approach, among other protocols outlined in this consent. Patients will be randomized to receive either of these approaches and the researchers will collect information to better understand if the ERASS approach provides more patient benefits.
This study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of care based on the "Accelerated Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Protocol" and the traditional method in bariatric surgery and demonstrate the difference the two methods based on evidence.
In recent years, a set of evidence-based recommendations called Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is being applied for care of cesarean sections. The effectiveness of ERAS in reducing the length of hospitalization, postoperative complications, the need for analgesics right away after surgery, and the financial cost in the context of cesarean sections has been shown in several studies. There is strong evidence that following ERAS protocols aids postoperative recovery positively. This will be a randomized trial to determine if there is a difference regarding adverse maternal outcomes between ERAS group and standard of care.
