Application of the Concept of Enhanced Recovery after Surgery in Total Laparoscopic Radical Gastrectomy.

Abstract

To explore the clinical effects of total laparoscopic radical gastrectomy under the guidance of the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). Fifty-five patients were perioperatively treated under the concept of ERAS (ERAS group), while the remaining 55 patients were treated under the traditional perioperative concept (control group). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, the time of first anal exhaust and first postoperative off-bed activity, postoperative length of stay, and incidence of postoperative complications were recorded in both groups. The pain of patients was assessed using VAS system. The nausea and vomiting and abdominal distension were assessed using the NVDS and abdominal distension score, respectively, within 24 h after operation. The patient's daily living ability was evaluated by the ADL scale at 3 d after the operation. The time of first anal exhaust, the time of first postoperative off-bed activity time, and the postoperative in-hospital time were all significantly shorter in the ERAS group than those in the control group (P < 0.001). The VAS score in the ERAS group was significantly lower than that in the control group at 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h after operation (P < .001). The ERAS group had significantly lower NVDS score and abdominal distension score than the control group (P < 0.001). The postoperative ADL score in the ERAS group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.001). ERAS during the perioperative period of total laparoscopic radical gastrectomy can promote the postoperative rehabilitation of patients and alleviate postoperative pain and gastrointestinal reactions, which is safe and effective.
