[PMID: 38796600 PMCID: PMC11127850 DOI: 10.1007/s10151-024-02933-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/14/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The implementation of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols has resulted in improved postoperative outcomes in colorectal cancer surgery. The evidence regarding feasibility and impact on outcomes in surgery for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is limited. METHODS We performed a retrospective observational cohort study, comparing patient trajectories before and after implementing an IBD-specific ERAS protocol at Zealand University Hospital. We assessed the occurrence of serious postoperative complications of Clavien-Dindo grade 3 or higher as our primary outcome, with postoperative length of stay in days and rate of readmissions as secondary outcomes, using χ2, Mann-Whitney test, and odds ratios adjusted for sex and age. RESULTS From 2017 to 2023, 394 patients were operated on for IBD and included in our study. In the ERAS cohort, 39/250 patients experienced a postoperative complication of Clavien-Dindo grade 3 or higher compared to 27/144 patients in the non-ERAS cohort (15.6% vs. 18.8%, p = 0.420) with an adjusted odds ratio of 0.73 (95% CI 0.42-1.28). There was a significantly shorter postoperative length of stay (median 4 vs. 6 days, p < 0.001) in the ERAS cohort compared to the non-ERAS cohort. Readmission rates remained similar (22.4% vs. 16.0%, p = 0.125). CONCLUSIONS ERAS in IBD surgery was associated with faster patient recovery, but without an impact on the occurrence of serious postoperative complications and rate of readmissions.

A single-center, prospective, randomized clinical trial: the MATRAC Trial. Tech Coloproctol 2024; 28:42.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is scarce literature on the effect of mechanical abdominal massage on the duration of ileus after colectomy, particularly in the era of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). The aim of this study was to determine whether abdominal massage after colorectal surgery with anastomosis and no stoma helps toward a faster return of intestinal transit. METHODS This study was a superiority trial and designed as a prospective open-label, single-center, randomized controlled clinical trial with two parallel groups. Patients scheduled to undergo intestinal resection and follow an ERAS protocol were randomly assigned to either the standard ERAS group or the ERAS plus massage group. The primary endpoint was the return of intestinal transit, defined as the first passage of flatus following the operation. Secondary endpoints included time of the first bowel motion, maximal pain, 30 day complications, complications due to massage, anxiety score given by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) questionnaire, and quality of life assessed by the EQ-5D-3L questionnaire. RESULTS Between July 2020 and June 2021, 36 patients were randomly assigned to the ERAS group or the ERAS plus massage group (n = 19). Patients characteristics were comparable. There was no significant difference in time to passage of the first flatus between the ERAS group and the ERAS plus abdominal massage group (1065 versus 1389 min, p = 0.274). No statistically significant intergroup difference was noted for the secondary endpoints. CONCLUSION Our study, despite its limitations, failed to demonstrate any advantage of abdominal massage to prevent or even reduce symptoms of postoperative ileus after colorectal surgery. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER 38RC20.021.

Enhanced recovery after surgery protocols following emergency intra-abdominal surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg 2023:10.1007/s00068-023-02387-6. [PMID: 37985500 DOI: 10.1007/s00068-023-02387-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/21/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate whether Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols for patients undergoing emergency intra-abdominal surgery improve postoperative outcomes as compared to conventional care. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, WoS, CENTRAL, and Pubmed were searched from inception to December 2022. Articles were eligible if they were randomized controlled trials (RCT) or non-randomized studies comparing ERAS protocols to conventional care for patients undergoing emergency intra-abdominal surgery. The outcomes included postoperative length of stay (LOS), postoperative morbidity, prolonged postoperative ileus (PPOI), and readmission. An inverse variance random effects meta-analysis was performed. A risk of bias was assessed with Cochrane tools. Certainty of evidence was assessed with GRADE. RESULTS After screening 1018 citations, 20 studies with 1615 patients in ERAS programs and 1933 patients receiving conventional care were included. There was a reduction in postoperative LOS in the ERAS group for patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal (GI) surgery (MD3.35, 95% CI 2.52-4.17, p < 0.00001) and lower GI surgery (MD2.80, 95% CI 2.62-2.99, p < 0.00001). There was a reduction in postoperative morbidity in the ERAS group for patients undergoing upper GI surgery (RR0.56, 95% CI 0.30-1.02, p = 0.06) and lower GI surgery (RR 0.66, 95%CI 0.52-0.85, p = 0.001). In the upper and lower GI subgroup, there were nonsignificant reductions in PPOI in the ERAS groups (RR0.59, 95% CI 0.30-1.17, p = 0.13; RR0.49, 95% CI 0.21-1.14, p = 0.10). There was a nonsignificant increased risk of readmission in the ERAS group (RR1.60, 95% CI 0.57-4.50, p = 0.50). CONCLUSION There is low-to-very-low certainty evidence supporting the use ERAS protocols for patients undergoing emergency intra-abdominal surgery. The currently available data are limited by imprecision.

Association between Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol, risk factors and 3-year survival after colorectal surgery for cancer in the elderly. Aging Clin Exp Res 2023; 35:167-175. [PMID: 36306111 DOI: 10.1007/s40520-022-02270-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2022] [Accepted: 09/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION As life expectancy is currently growing, more elderly and fragile patients need colorectal resection for cancer. We sought to assess the link between enhanced rehabilitation after surgery (ERAS), risk factors and overall survival at 3 years, in patients aged 65 and over. METHODS Between 2005 and 2017, all patients undergoing colorectal resection for cancer were included. Overall survival at 3 years was compared for patients treated in following ERAS guidelines compared to conventional treatment (pre-ERAS). RESULTS 661 patients were included (ERAS, n = 325; pre-ERAS, n = 336). The 3-year overall survival rate was significantly better regardless of age for ERAS vs pre-ERAS patients (73.1% vs 64.4%; p = 0.016). With overall survival rates of 83.2% vs 73.8%, 65.4% vs 62.8% and 59.6% vs 40% for the age bands 65-74, 75-84 and ≥ 85 years. The analysis of survival at 3 years by a multivariate Cox model identified ERAS as a protective factor with a reduction in the risk of death of 30% (HR = 0.70 [0.50-0.94], p = 0017) independently of other identified risk factors: age bands, ASA score > 2, smoking, atrial fibrillation and abdominal surgery. This result is confirmed by an analysis of the propensity score (HR = 0.67 [0.47-0.97], p = 0.032). CONCLUSIONS Our study shows that ERAS is associated with better 3-year survival in patients undergoing colorectal resection for cancer, independent of risk factors. The practice of ERAS is effective and should be offered to patients aged 65 and over.
