Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify the effect of stoma site marking on stoma-related complications. METHODS The study sample included 639 individuals with stomas who were followed up in a stomatherapy unit in Turkey between January 1, 2017, and June 20, 2021. Researchers collected patient data from nursing records. Data were evaluated using number, percentage, χ2, and logistic regression tests. RESULTS Of the individuals with stomas, 60.6% (n = 387) were men, and 72.6% (n = 464) had a cancer diagnosis. Their mean age was 60.16 (SD, 14.81) years. The stoma site was marked preoperatively in of 67.1% of patients (n = 429), and 17.1% (n = 109) developed stoma-related complications. The complication rate was higher in individuals with unmarked stoma sites (25.7%; P = .000), emergency surgeries (25.0%; P = .006), colostomies (23.9%; P = .042), and permanent stomas (28.3%; P = .002). The three most common complications were peristomal skin problems (56.9%), mucocutaneous separation (13.8%), and edema (9.2%). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of stoma-related complications in the postoperative period was higher in individuals with unmarked stoma sites. The authors recommend that stoma and wound care nurses mark the stoma site in individuals for whom stoma creation is planned.

Int J Nurs Stud 2024; 155:104769. [PMID: 38676992 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijnurstu.2024.104769] [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: 12/10/2023] [Revised: 03/26/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nursing care of colorectal cancer patients with stomas presents unique challenges, particularly during the transition from hospital to home. Early discharge programs can assist patients during this critical period. However, the effects of delivering a nurse-led discharge planning program remain under-studied. OBJECTIVE Evaluate the effects of a nurse-led discharge planning on the quality of discharge education, stoma self-efficacy, readiness for hospital discharge, stoma quality of life, incidence of stoma complications, unplanned readmission rate, and length of stays. DESIGN Assessor-blind parallel-arm randomized controlled trial with a repeated-measures design. SETTING(S) Participants were recruited from inpatients in the colorectal surgery unit of a university-affiliated hospital in Fujian, China. PARTICIPANTS A total of 160 patients with colorectal cancer who received enterostomy surgery and were scheduled to be discharged to their homes. METHOD Participants were randomly allocated to the experimental and control groups. The former received nurse-led discharge planning in addition to the usual discharge education, while the control group received only the usual discharge education. The program included an assessment, health education, stoma care, stoma support, discharge review, discharge medication and checklist integration, discharge referral, and post-hospital follow-up. Baseline data were collected prior to the intervention (T0). Data on the quality of discharge teaching, readiness for hospital discharge, stoma self-efficacy, and stoma quality of life were measured on the day of discharge from the hospital (T1). Patients' stoma self-efficacy and quality of life were repeat-measured 30 (T2) and 90 days post-discharge (T3). Data on stoma complications (T1, T2, T3), length of stays (T1), and unplanned readmission (T2, T3) were collected from medical records. RESULTS Participants in the intervention group showed significant improvement in the quality of discharge teaching, readiness for hospital discharge, stoma self-efficacy, stoma quality of life, complications, and unplanned readmission, compared to the control group (p < 0.001). However, no statistically significant differences were observed in length of stays (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The program was effective for improving quality of discharge teaching, readiness for hospital discharge, stoma self-efficacy, and stoma quality of life, as well as for reducing complications and unplanned readmission among stoma patients. Integration of discharge planning into the usual process of care is recommended for clinical practice to facilitate a successful transition from hospital to home. REGISTRATION This study was registered at the Chinese clinical trial registry (ChiCTR2200058756) on April 16, 2022, and participant recruitment was initiated in May 2022.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Above and beyond the environmentally responsible operating theater, the environmental impact of the pathways of surgically treated patients seems essential but has seldom been considered in the literature. On a parallel track, enhanced recovery programmes (ERP) programs are presently deemed a standard of care. The objective of this review is to determine the carbon footprint of the ERP approach in colorectal surgery. METHOD This a narrative review based on articles referenced in PubMed. Our search was centered on the environmental impact of an ERP in the context of colorectal surgery. A number of measures included in the national and international guidelines were studied. We utilized the terms "carbon footprint", "sustainability", "energy cost", "environmental footprint", "life cycle assessment" AND a key word for each subject found in the ERP recommendations. RESULTS Most ERP measures in the context of colorectal surgery are factually or intuitively virtuous from an ecological standpoint. With a 3-day reduction in average hospital stay resulting from ERP, the program permits a reduction of at least 375kg CO2e/patient (Appendices 1 and 2). The most substantial part of this reduction is achieved during the perioperative period. While some measures, such as short fasting, are ecologically neutral, others (treatment of comorbidities, smoking cessation, hypothermia prevention, antibiotic prophylaxis, laparoscopy, absence of drains or probes, thromboprophylaxis, early feeding and mobilization…) lead to fewer postoperative complications, and can consequently be considered as environmentally responsible. Conversely, other measures, one example being robotic surgery, leave a substantial carbon footprint. CONCLUSION ERP is congruent with two pillars of sustainable development: the social pillar (improved patient recovery, and better caregiver working conditions fostered by team spirit), and the economic pillar (decreased healthcare expenses). While the third, environmental pillar is intuitively present, the low number of published studies remains a limitation to be overcome in future qualitative studies.

Abstract
AIM Digestive stoma are frequently performed. The last French guidelines have been published twenty years ago. Our aim was to update French clinical practice guidelines for the perioperative management of digestive stoma and stoma-related complications. METHODS A systematic literature review of French and English articles published between January 2000 and May 2022 was performed. Only digestive stoma for fecal evacuation in adults were considered. Stoma in children, urinary stoma, digestive stoma for enteral nutrition, and rare stoma (Koch, perineal) were not included. RESULTS Guidelines include the surgical landmarks to create digestive stoma (ideal location, mucocutaneous anastomosis, utility of support rods, use of prophylactic mesh), the perioperative clinical practice guidelines (patient education, preoperative ostomy site marking, postoperative equipment, prescriptions, and follow-up), the management of early stoma-related complications (difficulties for nursing, high output, stoma necrosis, retraction, abscess and peristomal skin complications), and the management of late stoma-related complications (stoma prolapse, parastomal hernia, stoma stenosis, late stoma retraction). A level of evidence was assigned to each statement. CONCLUSION These guidelines will be very useful in clinical practice, and allow to delete some outdated dogma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of Orem's self-care model in preparing hospitals for the discharge of patients with colorectal cancer who undergo enterostomy. METHODS 92 patients with enterostomy were recruited between February 2022 and February 2023 from a general tertiary hospital. The participants were assigned to either the intervention group or the control group randomly. The intervention group received Orem's self-care program and a three-month follow-up, whereas the control group received only routine care and a three-month follow-up. Discharge readiness, self-care ability, and stoma-quality-of-life data were collected at hospital discharge (T1), 30 days (T2), and 90 days (T3) after discharge. RESULTS The intervention group had substantially higher discharge readiness (knowledge, p < 0.001; coping ability, p = 0.006; personal status, p = 0.001; expected support, p = 0.021; total score, p < 0.001), better self-care ability at T1 (self-care knowledge, p < 0.001; self-care skills, p = 0.010), better total quality of life (QoL) at T1, T2, and T3 (p < 0.001; p = 0.006; p = 0.014); better stoma management and daily routine at T1 (p = 0.004; p < 0.001); and better daily routine at T2 (p = 0.009) than the control group. CONCLUSIONS The designed discharge readiness program based on Orem's self-care could promote effective patient discharge readiness, self-care knowledge, self-care skills, and QoL.

Abstract
AIMS To identify postoperative interventions and quality improvement initiatives used to prevent wound complications in patients undergoing colorectal surgeries, the types of activities nurses undertake in these interventions/initiatives and how these activities align with nurses' scope of practice. DESIGN A scoping review. DATA SOURCES Three health databases were searched, and backward and forward citation searching occurred in April 2022. Research and quality improvement initiatives included focussed on adult patients undergoing colorectal surgery, from 2010 onwards. Data were extracted about study characteristics, nursing activities and outcomes. The 'Dimensions of the scope of nursing practice' framework was used to classify nursing activities and then the Patterns, Advances, Gaps, Evidence for practice and Research recommendations framework was used to synthesise the review findings. RESULTS Thirty-seven studies were included. These studies often reported negative wound pressure therapy and surgical site infection bundle interventions/initiatives. Nurses' scope of practice was most frequently 'Technical procedure and delegated medical care' meaning nurses frequently acted under doctors' orders, with the most common delegated activity being dressing removal. CONCLUSION The full extent of possible interventions nurses could undertake independently in the postoperative period requires further exploration to improve wound outcomes and capitalise on nurses' professional role. IMPACT STATEMENT Nurses' role in preventing postoperative wound complications is unclear, which may inhibit their ability to influence postoperative outcomes. In the postoperative period, nurses undertake technical activities, under doctors' orders to prevent wound infections. For practice, nurses need to upkeep and audit their technical skills. New avenues for researchers include exploration of independent activities for postoperative nurses and the outcomes of these activities. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION AND/OR PATIENT CARE There may be opportunities to broaden nurses' scope of practice to act more autonomously to prevent wound complication. REPORTING METHOD Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) checklist. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION A health consumer interpreted the data and prepared the manuscript.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The introduction into the clinical practice of the navigator nurse (NaNu) to address the task of counseling and short term follow-up help the effective implementation of the fast track protocol. The aim of the present study was to investigate the impact of the standardization of the NaNu's role in patients undergoing liver surgery. METHODS Patients undergoing elective liver surgery for all diagnosis and approach, from 2015, received counseling and postoperative follow-up by NaNu and constituted the study group (n = 890). This group was compared with the control group (n = 712) including patients treated in the era before the implementation of the NaNu role (2011-2014). Outcome was evaluated in terms of discrepancy between functional recovery and discharge, number of ER accesses, number of readmissions. RESULTS Preoperative characteristics of patients and disease, as well as type of resection and postoperative outcomes were similar between the two groups. The proportion of laparoscopic cases was higher in the study group (51.2% vs. 32% in the control). Time for discharge, interval between functional recovery and discharge, number of ER accesses and number of readmissions were reduced in the study group. Benign diagnosis, absence of complications, laparoscopic approach and presence of NaNu were independent predictors of shorter length of stay. The positive effect of NaNu's activation was recorded in patients with complications and undergoing open surgery. CONCLUSION The implementation of NaNu's role has allowed to us optimize the level of healthcare service offered to patients. The wider benefit was offered in the setting of complex patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with IBD are challenging to manage perioperatively because of disease complexity and multiple comorbidities. OBJECTIVE To identify whether preoperative factors and operation type were associated with extended postoperative length of stay after IBD-related surgery, defined by 75th percentile or greater (n = 926; 30.8%). DESIGN This was a cross-sectional study based on a retrospective multicenter database. SETTING The National Surgery Quality Improvement Program-Inflammatory Bowel Disease Collaborative captured data from 15 high-volume sites. PATIENTS A total of 3008 patients with IBD (1710 with Crohn's disease and 1291 with ulcerative colitis) with a median postoperative length of stay of 4 days (interquartile range, 3-7) from March 2017 to February 2020. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was extended postoperative length of stay. RESULTS On multivariable logistic regression, increased odds of extended postoperative length of stay were associated with multiple demographic and clinical factors (model p < 0.001, area under receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.85). Clinically significant contributors that increased postoperative length of stay were rectal surgery (vs colon; OR, 2.13; 95% CI, 1.52-2.98), new ileostomy (vs no ileostomy; OR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.15-1.97), preoperative hospitalization (OR, 13.45; 95% CI, 10.15-17.84), non-home discharge (OR, 4.78; 95% CI, 2.27-10.08), hypoalbuminemia (OR, 1.66; 95% CI, 1.27-2.18), and bleeding disorder (OR, 2.42; 95% CI, 1.22-4.82). LIMITATIONS Retrospective review of only high-volume centers. CONCLUSIONS Patients with IBD who were preoperatively hospitalized, who had non-home discharge, and who underwent rectal surgery had the highest odds of extended postoperative length of stay. Associated patient characteristics included bleeding disorder, hypoalbuminemia, and ASA classes 3 to 5. Chronic corticosteroid, immunologic, small molecule, and biologic agent use were insignificant on multivariable analysis. See Video Abstract. IMPACTO DE LOS FACTORES PREOPERATORIOS EN PACIENTES CON ENFERMEDAD INFLAMATORIA INTESTINAL EN LA DURACIN DE LA ESTANCIA POSTOPERATORIA UN ANLISIS COLABORATIVO DEL PROGRAMA NACIONAL DE MEJORA DE LA CALIDAD QUIRRGICAENFERMEDAD INFLAMATORIA INTESTINAL ANTECEDENTES:Los pacientes con enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal son difíciles de manejar perioperatoriamente debido a la complejidad de la enfermedad y a múltiples comorbilidades.OBJETIVO:Este estudio tuvo como objetivo identificar si los factores preoperatorios y el tipo de operación se asociaron con una estadía postoperatoria prolongada después de una cirugía relacionada con enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal, definida por el percentil 75 o mayor (n = 926, 30.8%).DISEÑO:Este fue un estudio transversal basado en una base de datos multicéntrica retrospectiva.ESCENARIO:Datos capturados de quince sitios de alto volumen en El Programa Nacional de Mejoramiento de la Calidad de la Cirugía-Enfermedad Intestinal Inflamatoria en colaboración.PACIENTES:Un total de 3,008 pacientes con enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal (1,710 con enfermedad de Crohn y 1,291 con colitis ulcerosa) con una mediana de estancia postoperatoria de 4 días (RIC 3-7) desde marzo de 2017 hasta febrero de 2020.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:El resultado primario fue la extensión de la estancia postoperatoria.RESULTADOS:En la regresión logística multivariable, el aumento de las probabilidades de prolongar la estancia postoperatoria se asoció con múltiples factores demográficos y clínicos (modelo p<0.001, área bajo la curva ROC - 0.85). Los contribuyentes clínicamente significativos que aumentaron la duración de la estancia postoperatoria fueron la cirugía rectal (frente al colon) (OR 2.13, IC del 95 %: 1.52 a 2.98), una nueva ileostomía (frente a ninguna ileostomía) (OR 1.50, IC del 95 %: 1.15 a 1.97), hospitalización preoperatoria (OR 13.45, IC 95% 10.15-17.84), alta no domiciliaria (OR 4.78, IC 95% 2.27-10.08), hipoalbuminemia (OR 1.66, IC 95% 1.27-2.18) y trastorno hemorrágico (OR 2.42, IC 95% 1.22-4.82).LIMITACIONES:Revisión retrospectiva de solo centros de alto volumen.CONCLUSIONES:Los pacientes con enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal que fueron hospitalizados antes de la operación, que tuvieron alta no domiciliaria y que se sometieron a cirugía rectal tuvieron las mayores probabilidades de prolongar la estancia postoperatoria. Las características asociadas de los pacientes incluyeron trastorno hemorrágico, hipoalbuminemia y clases ASA 3-5. El uso crónico de corticosteroides, inmunológicos, agentes de moléculas pequeñas y de agentes biológicos no fue significativo en el análisis multivariable. (Traducción-Dr. Jorge Silva Velazco ).

Abstract
To explore the early clinical value of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) with interscalene brachial plexus block (ISB) for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR). We enrolled 240 patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, randomly divided into 3 groups (n = 80 each). Groups A, B, and C underwent only surgery, surgery + ERAS, and ISB + surgery + ERAS, respectively. We analyzed the clinical data and postoperative indicators for the 3 patient groups. Group comparisons of clinical data and postoperative indicators revealed no significant differences in clinical characteristics (P > .05). Group C showed superior Visual Analog Scale scores at 0-6 and 6-24 hours postoperatively (P < .05), and the shortest length of hospital stay (LOS) (P < .05). At 6 weeks and 3 months postoperatively, Constant-Murley shoulder score and University of California-Los Angeles scores were better in Groups B and C than in Group A (P < .05). Joint swelling was more common in Group A than in Groups B and C (P < .05) but with no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative stiffness (P > .05). ERAS can relieve postoperative pain, shorten LOS, and help restore shoulder joint mobility, thereby reducing postoperative swelling. ISB + ERAS optimized pain control and allowed a shorter LOS, but had similar effects on early functional recovery and complications.

Abstract
Objectives To understand the impact of multicomponent interventions to improve recovery of older adults following planned hospital treatment, we conducted two systematic reviews, one of quantitative and one of qualitative evidence, and an overarching synthesis. These aimed to: • understand the effect of multicomponent interventions which aim to enhance recovery and/or reduce length of stay on patient-reported outcomes and health and social care utilisation • understand the experiences of patients, carers and staff involved in the delivery of interventions • understand how different aspects of the content and delivery of interventions may influence patient outcomes. Review methods We searched bibliographic databases including MEDLINE ALL, Embase and the Health Management Information Consortium, CENTRAL, and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature and Allied and Complementary Medicine Database, conducted forward and backward citation searching and examined reference lists of topically similar qualitative reviews. Bibliographic database searches were completed in May/June 2021 and updated in April 2022. We sought primary research from high-income countries regarding hospital inpatients with a mean/median age of minimum 60 years, undergoing planned surgery. Patients experienced any multicomponent hospital-based intervention to reduce length of stay or improve recovery. Quantitative outcomes included length of stay and any patient-reported outcome or experience or service utilisation measure. Qualitative research focused on the experiences of patients, carers/family and staff of interventions received. Quality appraisal was undertaken using the Effective Public Health Practice Project Quality Assessment Tool or an adapted version of the Wallace checklist. We used random-effects meta-analysis to synthesise quantitative data where appropriate, meta-ethnography for qualitative studies and qualitative comparative analysis for the overarching synthesis. Results Quantitative review: Included 125 papers. Forty-nine studies met criteria for further synthesis. Enhanced recovery protocols resulted in improvements to length of stay, without detriment to other outcomes, with minimal improvement in patient-reported outcome measures for patients admitted for lower-limb or colorectal surgery. Qualitative review: Included 43 papers, 35 of which were prioritised for synthesis. We identified six themes: 'Home as preferred environment for recovery', 'Feeling safe', 'Individualisation of structured programme', 'Taking responsibility', 'Essential care at home' and 'Outcomes'. Overarching synthesis: Intervention components which trigger successful interventions represent individualised approaches that allow patients to understand their treatment, ask questions and build supportive relationships and strategies to help patients monitor their progress and challenge themselves through early mobilisation. Discussion Interventions to reduce hospital length of stay for older adults following planned surgery are effective, without detriment to other patient outcomes. Findings highlight the need to reconsider how to evaluate patient recovery from the perspective of the patient. Trials did not routinely evaluate patient mid- to long-term outcomes. Furthermore, when they did evaluate patient outcomes, reporting is often incomplete or conducted using a narrow range of patient-reported outcome measures or limited through asking the wrong people the wrong questions, with lack of longer-term evaluation. Findings from the qualitative and overarching synthesis will inform policy-making regarding commissioning and delivering services to support patients, carers and families before, during and after planned admission to hospital.

Abstract
PURPOSE This aim of this study was to compare the impact on hospital stay and short-term overall complications prior to and following the introduction of an outpatient preoperative ostomy education program to an existing inpatient ostomy education program. DESIGN A comparison cohort study. SUBJECTS AND SETTING One hundred thirty-eight consecutive patients undergoing ostomy surgery were included. One group (n = 65, 47%) was given an experimental preoperative ostomy education intervention, along with standard care including a postoperative educational intervention during the initial hospital course. A second group (n = 73, 53%) received the same standardized education in the postoperative period. Data were collected from a single tertiary center located in Seville, Spain, during a 12-month period between July 2014 and June 2015. METHODS Data were collected in 2 phases. Data from participants undergoing postoperative (standard) education were collected retrospectively. Data for the group receiving preoperative education were collective prospectively. Outcome variables were postoperative length of stay, surgical complications (severity was assessed by the Clavien-Dindo grading system), subsequent interventions, and readmission rates. RESULTS Analysis indicated no differences between the average length of postoperative hospital stay (12.32 days in the preoperative education group vs 12.76 days in the postoperative education group, P = .401). In contrast, overall complications, mortality, and readmission rates were significantly higher in the preoperative education program group (P = .027, P = .047, and P = .046, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Delivering a standardized educational intervention during the preoperative period versus postoperative education delivery during the ostomy surgery hospital course did not reduce length of stay. Analysis indicated that overall complications, mortality, and readmission rates were significantly higher in the preoperative education program group but we hypothesize that intervening factors may have influenced these outcomes.

Impact of enhanced recovery pathways on patient-reported outcomes after abdominal surgery: a systematic review. Surg Endosc 2023; 37:8043-8056. [PMID: 37474828 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-023-10289-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Evidence supports that enhanced recovery pathways (ERPs) reduce length of stay and complications; however, these measures may not reflect the perspective of patients who are the main stakeholders in the recovery process. This systematic review aimed to appraise the evidence regarding the impact of ERPs on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after abdominal surgery. METHODS Five databases (Medline, Embase, Biosis, Cochrane, and Web of Science) were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) addressing the impact of ERPs on PROs after abdominal surgery. We focused on distinct periods of recovery: early (within 7 days postoperatively) and late (beyond 7 days). Risk of bias was assessed using Cochrane's RoB 2.0. Results were appraised descriptively as heterogeneity hindered meta-analysis. Certainty of evidence was evaluated using GRADE. RESULTS Fifty-six RCTs were identified [colorectal (n = 18), hepatopancreaticobiliary (HPB) (n = 11), upper gastrointestinal (UGI) (n = 10), gynecological (n = 7), urological (n = 7), general surgery (n = 3)]. Most trials had 'some concerns' (n = 30) or 'high' (n = 25) risk of bias. In the early postoperative period, ERPs improved patient-reported general health (colorectal, HPB, UGI, urological; very low to low certainty), physical health (colorectal, gynecological; very low to low certainty), mental health (colorectal, gynecological; very low certainty), pain (all specialties; very low to moderate certainty), and fatigue (colorectal; low certainty). In the late postoperative period, ERPs improved general health (HPB, UGI, urological; very low certainty), physical health (UGI, gynecological, urological; very low to low certainty), mental health (UGI, gynecological, urological; very low certainty), social health (gynecological; very low certainty), pain (gynecological, urological; very low certainty), and fatigue (gynecological; very low certainty). CONCLUSION This review supports that ERPs may have a positive impact on patient-reported postoperative health status (i.e., general, physical, mental, and social health) and symptom experience (i.e., pain and fatigue) after abdominal surgery; however, data were largely derived from low-quality trials. Although these findings contribute important knowledge to inform evidence-based ERP implementation, there remains a great need to improve PRO assessment in studies focused on postoperative recovery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stoma surgery is a life-changing event and patients must subsequently make significant adjustments to their lives. AIM The study set out to understand the level of interaction between patients and stoma care nurses (SCNs) in relation to preparing patients for stoma surgery and in adjustment to life with a stoma. METHODS Retrospective, self-reported questionnaires for patients and SCNs. FINDINGS Most patients (98%) with planned stoma surgery had pre-operative consultations with health professionals in contrast to 36% of patients with unplanned surgery, who did not. One third of patients with unplanned surgery did not feel prepared for life with a stoma based on the information provided during their hospital stay. Two thirds of the nurses reported having sufficient time to prepare patients for stoma surgery and to life with a stoma. CONCLUSION SCNs are key in preparing patients for surgery and for life with a stoma. Variations in care were experienced by patients having planned versus unplanned surgeries.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of a 45-minute session of video-based preoperative ostomy education on self-care knowledge, self-care proficiency, anxiety, depression, length of hospital stay, and ostomy-related complications to a control group who received 3 postoperative educational sessions. DESIGN This was a randomized controlled trial. SAMPLE AND SETTING The sample comprised 47 patients scheduled to undergo ostomy surgery for colon or rectal cancer surgery at a tertiary referral hospital in Seoul, South Korea, from November 2018 to May 2019. However, 2 participants in the intervention group and 4 in the control group withdrew from the study and data analysis is based on 41 participants who completed study procedures. METHODS Participants were randomly allocated to an intervention group (n = 21) or a control group (n = 20). The intervention group received a single 45-minute session of video-based preoperative ostomy education along with stoma site marking and postoperative education. The control group underwent stoma site marking and 3 postoperative education sessions Self-care knowledge, anxiety, and depression were assessed by validated instruments. Self-care proficiency was assessed via direct observation using a checklist. Ostomy-related complications were evaluated by a WOC nurse. Length of hospital stay and disease-related characteristics were collected from medical records. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the intervention group showed significant improvements in self-care knowledge (P = .001) and self-care proficiency scores (P = .001). Intervention group participants also had lower anxiety scores (P = .025), depression scores (P = .014), shorter hospital stays (P = .008), and fewer ostomy-related complications (P = .001). CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing ostomy surgery, a single 45-minute session of preoperative video-based ostomy education improved self-care knowledge and proficiency. This intervention also reduced depression, anxiety, and ostomy-related complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For patients with locally recurrent rectal cancer, it is an ongoing pursuit to establish factors predicting or improving oncological outcomes. In locally advanced rectal cancer, a pCR appears to be associated with improved outcomes. The aim of this retrospective cohort study was to compare the oncological outcomes of patients with locally recurrent rectal cancer with and without a pCR. METHODS Patients who underwent neoadjuvant treatment and surgery for locally recurrent rectal cancer with curative intent between January 2004 and June 2020 at a tertiary referral hospital were analysed. Primary outcomes included overall survival, disease-free survival, metastasis-free survival, and local re-recurrence-free survival, stratified according to whether the patient had a pCR. RESULTS Of a total of 345 patients, 51 (14.8 per cent) had a pCR. Median follow-up was 36 (i.q.r. 16-60) months. The 3-year overall survival rate was 77 per cent for patients with a pCR and 51.1 per cent for those without (P < 0.001). The 3-year disease-free survival rate was 56 per cent for patients with a pCR and 26.1 per cent for those without (P < 0.001). The 3-year local re-recurrence-free survival rate was 82 and 44 per cent respectively (P < 0.001). Surgical procedures (for example soft tissue, sacrum, and urogenital organ resections) and postoperative complications were comparable between patients with and without a pCR. CONCLUSION This study showed that patients with a pCR have superior oncological outcomes to those without a pCR. It may therefore be safe to consider a watch-and-wait approach in highly selected patients, potentially improving quality of life by omitting extensive surgical procedures without compromising oncological outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Few studies have focused on enhanced recovery programs (ERPs) in patients who have received a stoma after colorectal surgery. The objective of the study was to compare ERP compliant patients who have not received a stoma, those who received a colostomy, and those who received an ileostomy. METHODS This study used data that had been prospectively collected as part of the ERP audit performed through the Groupe francophone de Réhabilitation Améliorée après Chirurgie [Francophone Group for Enhanced Recovery after Surgery] over a 4-year period. All patients who had undergone colorectal surgery were included and separated into three groups (no stoma, ileostomy, and colostomy). The primary outcome was ERP compliance, calculated through the use of 16 tracer items. RESULTS Of the 422 recruited patients, 317 had not received a stoma (75.12%), 59 had an ileostomy (13.98%), and 46 had a colostomy (10.90%). ERP compliance was 73% in the non-stoma group, 66.6% in the ileostomy group, and 66% in the colostomy group (p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that patients from the ileostomy group had a higher risk of bowel preparation [OR = 9.1; 95% CI = 1.16-71.65] and of maintaining their urinary catheter [OR = 0.3; 95% CI = 0.14-0.81] than the group which did not receive a stoma. Patients from the colostomy group required significantly more drainage than those in the non-stoma group (OR = 4.3; 95% CI = 1.33-14.02). CONCLUSION ERP is feasible in colorectal surgery in the context of stomas, but in case of ileostomy protecting a rectal surgery, the audit system must be adapted to the protocols in use in the departments.

Systematic review with meta-analysis: Current and emerging models of preoperative psychological preparation for individuals undergoing stoma surgery. J Psychosom Res 2023; 168:111211. [PMID: 36898315 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpsychores.2023.111211] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2022] [Revised: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/12/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Stoma surgery is a profoundly life changing event that can result in a range of negative psychological and mental health outcomes, often requiring significant postoperative adaption. While postoperative avenues of support to address these outcomes exist, there remains a lack of preoperative psychological preparation for surgical candidates in standard models of care. The present systematic review and meta-analysis aims to examine the current and emerging models of psychological preparation available to stoma surgery candidates during the preoperative period. METHODS A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Emcare, PsycINFO, CINAHL, and SCOPUS was conducted. All studies examining the effects of preoperative psychological interventions targeting postoperative psychological adjustment and/or mental health outcomes for individuals planning to undergo or who had undergone stoma surgery were included. RESULTS Overall, 15 publications meeting inclusion criteria were identified, encompassing 1565 total participants. Intervention types ranged from psychoeducational, counselling, and practical based skills, examining the postoperative outcomes of anxiety, depression, quality of life, adjustment, self-efficacy, and systematic improvements to standard models of care. Five studies examining postoperative anxiety were included for meta-analysis, demonstrating an overall significant effect (SMD = -1.13, 95% CI -1.96 to -0.30, p = .008). Due to the high level of heterogeneity between remaining studies, articles examining postoperative outcomes other than anxiety were synthesised in narrative form. CONCLUSION Despite some promising advancements in the field, there remains insufficient evidence to judge the overall effectiveness of current and emerging models of preoperative psychological preparation on postoperative psychological outcomes for individuals facing stoma surgery.

Effectiveness of discharge education for patients undergoing general surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Int J Nurs Stud 2023; 140:104471. [PMID: 36871540 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijnurstu.2023.104471] [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: 09/06/2022] [Revised: 01/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/14/2023] [Indexed: 02/21/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is some evidence to suggest that discharge education may reduce the risk of postoperative complications, however, a critical evaluation of the body of evidence is needed. OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of discharge education interventions versus standard education given to general surgery patients prior to, or up to 30-days of hospital discharge on clinical and patient-reported outcomes. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis. Clinical outcomes were 30-day surgical site infection incidence and re-admission up to 28 days. Patient-reported outcomes included patient knowledge, self-confidence, satisfaction, and quality of life. SETTING Participants were recruited from hospitals. PARTICIPANTS Adult general surgical patients. METHODS MEDLINE (Pubmed), CINAHL (EBSCO), EMBASE (Elsevier) and the Cochrane Library were searched in February 2022. Randomised controlled trials and non-randomised studies of interventions published between 2010 and 2022, with adults undergoing general surgical procedures receiving discharge education on surgical recovery, including wound management, were eligible for inclusion. Quality appraisal was undertaken using the Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 and the Risk of Bias Assessment Tool for Nonrandomised Studies. The Grading of Assessment, Development, Recommendations, and Evaluation was used to assess the certainty of the body of evidence based on the outcomes of interest. RESULTS Ten eligible studies (eight randomised control trials and two non-randomised studies of interventions) with 965 patients were included. Six randomised control trials assessed the effect of discharge education interventions on 28-day readmission (Odds ratio 0.88, 95 % confidence interval 0.56-1.38). Two randomised control trials assessed the effect of discharge education interventions on surgical site infection incidence (Odds ratio = 0.84, 95 % confidence interval 0.39-1.82). The results of the non-randomised studies of interventions were not pooled due to heterogeneity in outcome measures. The risk of bias was either moderate or high for all outcomes, and the body of evidence using GRADE was judged as very low for all outcomes studied. CONCLUSIONS The impact of discharge education on the clinical and patient-reported outcomes of patients undergoing general surgery cannot be determined due to the uncertainty of the evidence base. Despite the increased use of web-based interventions to deliver discharge education to general surgery patients, larger samples in more rigorous multicentre randomised control trials with parallel process evaluations are needed to better understand the effect of discharge education on clinical and patient-reported outcomes. REGISTRATION PROSPERO CRD42021285392. TWEETABLE ABSTRACT Discharge education may reduce the likelihood of surgical site infection and hospital readmission but the body of evidence is inconclusive.

Abstract
AIMS To explore the associations between sociodemographic and clinical data, the patient's knowledge and skills, and relationship to healthcare professionals with leakage from an ostomy. DESIGN Cross-sectional. METHODS This study included 160 patients with a colostomy, ileostomy, or urostomy. Leakage was the dependent variable and was assessed by self-report. Sociodemographic and clinical data and the Ostomy Adjustment Scale subscores, 'knowledge and skills' and 'health care professionals' were independent variables. Spearman's rho and multivariate partial least squares regression analysis were used to estimate possible factors associated with leakage. RESULTS Of the participants, 13.8% had leakage weekly or more often, 16.3% more often than once a month and 37, 5% had leakage more seldom than once a month. The most important risk factors for leakage were (1) having an ostomy placement that does not meet international guidelines, (2) not having an optimal relationship with health professionals, (3) having a diagnosis other than cancer, (4) not having proper knowledge and skills in ostomy care, (5) not having a colostomy, (6) having a convex baseplate, (7) having an oval ostomy, and (8) being dependent on others for ostomy care. The independent variables in the PLS- model explained 31% of the variance in leakage. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION We thank the patients in the user panel for their help during the study.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Early discharge is increasingly important in the resource-limited COVID era. Some groups have reported early experiences with same day discharge (SDD) after colectomy. We implemented a routine SDD protocol and report the evolution in our program's outcomes. METHODS We studied a retrospective cohort of robotic colorectal surgeries from 2016 to 2022. Colectomies were analyzed as a sub-group and stratified by year. RESULTS The cohort comprised 535 cases, of which 483 were colectomies. Annual case volume increased from 58 to 180 cases (p < 0.001). Operative console time concordantly decreased by 33% (p < 0.001). Average length of stay decreased from five to one days. By 2022, 58% of colectomies were selectively discharged on the same day of surgery. Complication and readmission rates remained constant. CONCLUSIONS SDD is feasible and safe in selected patients. We illustrate the practical evolution of a surgical practice toward routine SDD, and discuss the factors we found critical to this transition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An intestinal stoma has severe psychosocial effects on patients. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to measure the effects of prehabilitation on stoma self-care, quality of life, anxiety, and depression levels. DESIGN This study was a a randomized controlled trial. SETTINGS Patients were allocated into 3 groups according to enterostomal management: group A (stoma marking and postoperative education), group B (marking and pre- and postoperative education), and group C (prehabilitation group) (marking and preoperative education with introduction of the stoma appliance preoperatively and postoperative education). A stoma care follow-up form, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and a stoma-specific quality-of-life questionnaire were used for evaluation. PATIENTS Patients who underwent colorectal surgery and fecal diversion at the Ankara University, Ankara, Turkey, between 2011 and 2016 were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was the effect of stoma prehabilitation on self-care ability. RESULTS Two hundred forty patients were included in the study. The outcome of stoma self-care revealed that 24 patients (31.2%) in group A, 51 patients (78.5%) in group B, and 72 patients (94.7%) in group C could perform stoma care independently ( p < 0.001). Among patients with temporary stomas, group C had a better outcome than patients in groups A and B ( p < 0.001). There was no similar relationship among patients with permanent stomas. The prehabilitation group had fewer patients with anxiety and depression than the other groups. Among patients with temporary stomas, similar findings were found. No differences were found in either anxiety or depression among patients with permanent stomas. Stoma quality-of-life scores were significantly higher in the prehabilitation group ( p < 0.001). Among patients with temporary stomas, similar findings were found. There was no difference among those with permanent stoma. LIMITATIONS This was a single-center study of heterogeneous groups. CONCLUSIONS Prehabilitation facilitates stoma self-care, decreases predisposition to anxiety and depression and improves quality of life in patients with stomas.

Abstract
The objective of this paper is to investigate the different roles of nurses as members of healthcare teams at the primary, secondary, and tertiary levels of colorectal cancer prevention. The research team conducted a narrative review of studies involving the role of nurses at different levels of colorectal cancer prevention, which included a variety of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method studies. We searched PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Reviews, Magiran, the Scientific Information Database (SID), Noormags, and the Islamic Science Citation (ISC) databases from ab initio until 2021. A total of 117 studies were reviewed. Nurses' roles were classified into three levels of prevention. At the primary level, the most important role related to educating people to prevent cancer and reduce risk factors. At the secondary level, the roles consisted of genetic counseling, stool testing, sigmoidoscopy and colonoscopy, biopsy and screening test follow-ups, and chemotherapy intervention, while at the tertiary level, their roles were made up of pre-and post-operative care to prevent further complications, rehabilitation, and palliative care. Nurses at various levels of prevention care also act as educators, coordinators, performers of screening tests, follow-up, and provision of palliative and end-of-life care. If these roles are not fulfilled at some levels of colorectal cancer, it is generally due to the lack of knowledge and competence of nurses or the lack of instruction and legal support for them. Nurses need sufficient clinical knowledge and experience to perform these roles at all levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rectal cancer patients often face complex surgical treatment decisions, but there are few available tools to aid in decision-making. OBJECTIVE We aimed to identify content and delivery preferences of rectal cancer patients and colorectal surgeons to guide future surgical decision aid creation. DESIGN Qualitative study: inductive thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews. SETTING In-person and phone interviews. PATIENTS We purposively sampled 15 rectal cancer survivors based on demographics and surgery type. Five caregivers also participated. We purposively selected 10 surgeons based on practice type and years of experience. INTERVENTIONS Semi-structured interviews. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Major and minor themes for survivors and surgeons with thematic saturation. RESULTS Interviews were a median of 61 minutes (41-93) for patients and 35 minutes (25-59) for surgeons. Nine survivors were younger than 65 years; 7 were female. Surgeons had been practicing for a mean of 10 years (SD 7.4), with 7 in academic and 3 in private settings. Participating survivors and surgeons wanted a comprehensive educational tool-not just a surgical decision aid. Survivors wanted more information on rectal cancer basics and lifestyle, care timelines, and resources during treatment. Surgeons thought patients mostly desired information about surgical options and bowel function. Both patients and surgeons wanted a tool that was personalized, simple, understandable, visually appealing, interactive, short, and in multiple formats. LIMITATIONS Results may not be generalizable due to selection bias of participants. CONCLUSION Rectal cancer survivors, their caregivers, and colorectal surgeons wanted an educational support tool that would address substantial educational needs through the continuum of disease rather than a surgical decision aid focusing on a discrete surgical choice only.

UNA AYUDA PARA LA DECISIN QUIRRGICA DEL CNCER DE RECTO NO ES SUFICIENTE UN ESTUDIO CUALITATIVO ANTECEDENTES:Los pacientes con cáncer de recto a menudo enfrentan decisiones de tratamiento quirúrgico complejas, pero hay pocas herramientas disponibles para ayudar en la toma de decisiones.OBJETIVO:Nuestro objetivo fue identificar el contenido y las preferencias de entrega de los pacientes con cáncer de recto y los cirujanos colorrectales para guiar la futura creación de ayuda para la toma de decisiones quirúrgicas.DISEÑO:Estudio cualitativo: análisis temático inductivo de entrevistas semiestructuradas.ESCENARIO:Entrevistas en persona y por teléfono.PACIENTES:Tomamos muestras intencionalmente de 15 sobrevivientes de cáncer de recto, según la demografía y el tipo de cirugía. También participaron cinco cuidadores. Seleccionamos intencionalmente a 10 cirujanos según el tipo de práctica y los años de experiencia.INTERVENCIONES:Entrevistas semiestructuradas.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:Temas principales y secundarios para sobrevivientes y cirujanos con saturación temática.RESULTADOS:Las entrevistas tuvieron una mediana de 61 minutos (41-93) para pacientes y 35 minutos (25-59) para cirujanos. Nueve sobrevivientes tenían menos de 65 años; siete eran mujeres. Los cirujanos habían estado ejerciendo una media de 10 años (DE 7,4), con siete en entornos académicos y 3 en entornos privados. Los sobrevivientes y cirujanos participantes querían una herramienta educativa comprensible, no solo una ayuda para la decisión quirúrgica. Los sobrevivientes querían más información sobre los conceptos básicos y el estilo de vida del cáncer de recto, los plazos de atención y los recursos durante el tratamiento. Los cirujanos pensaron que los pacientes en su mayoría deseaban información sobre las opciones quirúrgicas y la función intestinal. Tanto los pacientes como los cirujanos querían una herramienta que fuera personalizada, simple, comprensible, visualmente atractiva, interactiva, corta y en múltiples formatos.LIMITACIONES:Los resultados pueden no ser generalizables debido al sesgo de selección de los participantes.CONCLUSIÓN:Los sobrevivientes de cáncer rectal, sus cuidadores y los cirujanos colorrectales querían una herramienta de apoyo educativo que cubriera las necesidades educativas sustanciales a lo largo del tratamiento de la enfermedad en lugar de una ayuda para la decisión quirúrgica que se centre solo en una opción quirúrgica discreta.

The Nuts and Bolts of Implementing a Modified ERAS Protocol for Minimally Invasive Colorectal Surgery: Group Practice vs. Solo Practice. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11236992. [PMID: 36498566 PMCID: PMC9739177 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11236992] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2022] [Revised: 11/13/2022] [Accepted: 11/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
AIM: The ERAS protocol consists of multiple items that aim to improve the outcomes of patients receiving surgery. Adhering to the protocol is difficult. We wondered whether surgeons practicing the ERAS protocol in a group would improve patient outcomes. Methods: All patients who underwent colorectal resection for benign disease or malignancy from November 2017 to December 2018 were collected and reviewed retrospectively. According to the physician’s ward round strategy, the patients were categorized into two groups, either by solo practice or group practice. Results: This study enrolled 724 patients and divided them into two groups according to the practice method: group practice (n = 256) and solo practice (n = 468). The group practice cohort had less postoperative morbidity (14.0% vs. 21.4%, p = 0.048) and shorter postoperative hospital stays (mean: 6.6 ± 3.2 vs. 8.6 ± 5.5, p < 0.05) than the solo practice cohort. Group practice (p < 0.001), natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) procedure (p < 0.001), and blood loss >50 mL (p = 0.039) significantly affected discharge within 5 days postoperatively in multivariate analyses. Conclusions: Group practice based on a modified ERAS protocol shortens postoperative hospital stays with fewer morbidities compared with solo practice in which patients receive elective minimally invasive colorectal surgery.

Abstract
(1) Background: Length of stay (LOS) has been suggested as a marker of the effectiveness of short-term care. Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies could help monitor hospital stays. We developed an AI-based novel predictive LOS score for advanced-stage high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) patients following cytoreductive surgery and refined factors significantly affecting LOS. (2) Methods: Machine learning and deep learning methods using artificial neural networks (ANN) were used together with conventional logistic regression to predict continuous and binary LOS outcomes for HGSOC patients. The models were evaluated in a post-hoc internal validation set and a Graphical User Interface (GUI) was developed to demonstrate the clinical feasibility of sophisticated LOS predictions. (3) Results: For binary LOS predictions at differential time points, the accuracy ranged between 70-98%. Feature selection identified surgical complexity, pre-surgery albumin, blood loss, operative time, bowel resection with stoma formation, and severe postoperative complications (CD3-5) as independent LOS predictors. For the GUI numerical LOS score, the ANN model was a good estimator for the standard deviation of the LOS distribution by ± two days. (4) Conclusions: We demonstrated the development and application of both quantitative and qualitative AI models to predict LOS in advanced-stage EOC patients following their cytoreduction. Accurate identification of potentially modifiable factors delaying hospital discharge can further inform services performing root cause analysis of LOS.

[PMID: 36429966 PMCID: PMC9690373 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph192215249] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/15/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Active patient participation in preparation and recovery from colorectal cancer surgery can be facilitated by timely information and care and may improve patient wellbeing and reduce hospitalizations; Methods: We aimed to identify gaps in perioperative information and care by asking colorectal cancer surgical patients to retrospectively report on their perceptions of care via a cross-sectional survey; Results: Overall, 179 (64% consent rate) patients completed one of two 64-item surveys exploring their views of 'optimal care' or their experiences of 'actual care'. In total, 41 (64%) aspects of care were endorsed as optimal. Of these, almost three-quarters (73%) were received by most patients (80% or more). Gaps in care were identified from discrepancies in the endorsement of optimal versus actual survey items. Of the 41 items identified as representing 'optimal care', 11 items were received by fewer than 80% of patients, including the provision of information about the impact of surgical wait-times on cancer cure (69%); pre-habilitation behaviors to improve health (75%); the type of questions to ask the health care team (74%); impact of pain medications on bowel movements (73%); how to obtain medical supplies for self-care at home (67%); dietary or exercise advice after discharge (25-31%); and emotional advice after discharge (44%). CONCLUSIONS These gaps represent patient-centered priorities and targets for supportive interventions.

Abstract
A stoma is classified as either permanent or temporary depending on the time of anastomosis, and is referred to as a colostomy, ileostomy, or urostomy based on the organ to which it is anastomosed. The creation of a stoma poses many challenges to patients as they adapt to this profound life-changing event that affects fundamental aspects of quality of life. To reduce the risk of stoma and peristomal complications after discharge, telephone-based support (TBS) program which includes patient follow-up, counselling, and the benefits of group support activities including information sharing, health education and counselling, symptom management, early detection of problems, reassurance, and high-quality aftercare. This article narrates common stoma and peristomal complications as well as TBS program to support in reducing these complications.

Abstract
The advance in nursing care for stoma patients is a challenging issue, which will influence the life quality. The quality of life is a major issue in the recovery of stoma patients. The evidence of experimental nursing has not been explored enough. A systematic search and a meta-analysis were performed for the studies of experimental nursing interventions versus routine warming interventions on patients with a stoma. The comparisons between nursing interventions were performed to find which kind of intervention will be superior in improving life quality. After a restricted selection, 10 studies, 460 subjects with experimental nursing intervention, and 478 controls with the routine nursing intervention were enrolled in a variety of causes of the stoma. The focused outcome was the quality of life. The meta-analysis was performed by Review Manager 5.4. Among the stoma patients, the meta-analysis favours the experimental nursing intervention group with higher scores of life quality when compared to the routine nursing intervention group. The meta-analysis results were with positive mean differences, significant tests for overall effect, and significant heterogeneities in the random-effects model. The experimental nursing intervention showed higher positive effects on the quality of life when compared to routine nursing intervention for stoma patients. Experimental nursing intervention might be an option for stoma nursing practitioners to improve stoma care.

Abstract
PURPOSE A quality improvement project was undertaken that evaluated the results of a group inpatient ostomy education class designed to reinforce information provided by the WOC nurse. A secondary goal was to provide emotional support during the immediate postoperative period following ostomy surgery. PARTICIPANTS AND SETTING Participants were inpatients undergoing fecal ostomies (ileostomies, jejunostomies, or colostomies) and their families. This project took place in an inpatient colorectal unit at the project hospital in Northeast, Ohio. APPROACH The Plan, Do, Check, Act process was used to guide the quality improvement. Using feedback from postoperative patients, a multidisciplinary team designed an inpatient group ostomy class with education targeting patient-identified needs. Educational content was created with feedback from postoperative patients. The 1-hour class was offered twice weekly and was facilitated by a dietician, a pharmacist, and an RN. Content included general postoperative discharge information, appliance self-care, nutrition guidelines, medications, and resources for support. OUTCOMES From 2016 to 2019, more than 1500 patients and family members participated in the educational offerings. During this time, length of hospital stay for ostomy patients decreased from 7.299 to 5.938 days. Readmission rates for patients undergoing fecal ostomies declined from 12.9% to a postclass rate of 11.2%. Written/verbal feedback from class attendees, physicians, and nurses was positive. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Project outcomes validated the need for a structured, ongoing inpatient, postoperative, group education for ostomy patients during the immediate postoperative period. Next steps will be to resume the class as it was paused due to COVID-19 restrictions, to continue to revise content, and to implement supplementary materials such as DVDs and online resources.

Abstract
PURPOSE New stoma creation is related to a wide range of implications and stoma-related complications could occur frequently. The aim was to assess the impact of a close stoma-therapeutic-care pathway (STCP) in terms of length of stay, autonomy in the management of the pouch, readmission rate, and stoma-related complications. METHODS Patients undergoing surgery for colorectal disease and first stoma creation from January 2017 to December 2020 were analyzed. All patients enrolled had joined the Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) protocol. RESULTS Among 143 enrolled, 56 (40%) did not completely follow the STCP (group A), whereas 87 (60%) demonstrated strict compliance (group B). The hospital stay lasted 8 days in group B and 11.5 in group A (p = 0.001). The first look at the stoma needed 1 day in group B and 3 days in group A (p < 0.001), emptying the pouch 2 days in group B and 5 days in group A (p < 0.001). Finally, the ability to change the pouch was 3 days in group B and 6 days in group A (p < 0.001). Nine (16.1%) stoma-related complications were counted in group A and 16 (18.4%) in group B, and 30-day readmission was 10.1% in group B and 11.5% in group A (p = 0.82 and p = 1, respectively, not significant). CONCLUSIONS The STCP has been shown to reduce the hospital stay and to have a protective role making the patient autonomous in the management of the stoma.

Abstract
This integrative literature review summarizes recent literature relating to patient adjustment to stoma. The search strategy included 5 databases (CINAHL Plus, PsychINFO, Web of Science, Scopus, and MEDLINE); 65 articles meeting criteria were retrieved. Eleven were removed as duplicates, and a further 29 were removed when read in full, yielding 25 elements. Three were randomized controlled trials; 2 were prospective descriptive studies; 15 were cross-sectional descriptive studies; and 5 were qualitative studies. The quality of studies was evaluated using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). The calculated mean quality score was 97%, and no studies were excluded on quality grounds. Limited evidence suggests that adjustment occurs over time and provides some insight concerning how rehabilitation leads to resumption of an altered normality. Some evidence suggests that long-term adjustment is associated with demographic and pre- and postoperative factors. A knowledge gap was identified regarding the role of support groups, which in other fields has been shown to positively benefit psychological well-being. This review revealed a paucity of interventional studies seeking to test ways to address adjustment-related problems. Longitudinal studies are recommended as ostomy care nurses work to facilitate adjustment in the person with a stoma over time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate if ostomy care pathways improve outcomes for adults anticipating or living with an ostomy. DATA SOURCES In this systematic review, the authors searched the MEDLINE, CINAHL, Cochrane Central, and EMBASE databases. STUDY SELECTION Studies were included if they met the following criteria: written in English, targeted adults anticipating or currently living with an ostomy, evaluated the impact of two or more components of an ostomy care pathway, and included one or more of the pertinent outcomes (patient satisfaction, hospital length of stay, hospital readmission rates, and staff satisfaction). DATA EXTRACTION Details recorded included design, setting, descriptions of intervention and control groups, patient characteristics, outcomes, data collection tools, effect size, and potential harms. DATA SYNTHESIS Of 5,298 total records, 11 met the inclusion criteria: 2 randomized controlled trials and 9 nonrandomized studies. The overall quality of the studies was low. Of the four studies that examined patient satisfaction, all studies reported improvement or positive satisfaction rates. Of the six studies that evaluated hospital length of stay, five noted a decrease in length of stay. Of the eight studies that evaluated hospital readmission rates, five found a reduction in hospital readmission rates. No studies reported on staff satisfaction. CONCLUSIONS Ostomy care pathways included preoperative education and counseling, postoperative education and discharge planning, and outpatient home visits and telephone follow-ups. Ostomy care pathways may contribute to patient satisfaction and decrease both hospital length of stay and hospital readmission rates. However, higher-quality literature is needed to be confident in the effectiveness of ostomy care pathways.

Abstract
Background The population affected by colorectal cancer is growing, and there is an increasing need for prevention of functional decline following treatment. We proposed that the Kihon Checklist published by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare would be an appropriate means of frailty assessment for prediction of postoperative complications in older patients with colorectal cancer. This prospective cohort study aims to identify the factors influencing postoperative frailty. Methods We prospectively enrolled consecutive patients with colorectal cancer and aged ≥ 65 year (N = 500) between May 2017 and December 2018. Eligible patients were assessed with the Kihon Checklist prior to surgery and 30 days after surgery. The main measures were variables related to postoperative change in view of frail status. Results According to the Kihon Checklist questionnaire, 164 patients were frail preoperatively and 172 patients were frail postoperatively, whereas 38 patients changed from "nonfrail" before surgery to postoperative "frail." Overall complications were counted in 97 patients (19.4%), and 5 patients died. Performance status ≥ 2, history of laparotomy, open surgery, complication, ostomy creation, and delirium were significantly associated with changing postoperative "frail" (P = .014, P = .023, P = .006, P < .001, P = .023, and P = .024, respectively). In multivariate analysis, independent related factors of changing postoperative "frail" were complication (odds ratio 2.69, 95% confidence interval 1.19–6.09, P = .018) and ostomy creation (odds ratio 2.32, 95% confidence interval 1.01–5.33, P = .047). Conclusion The Kihon Checklist questionnaire could identify the factors related to postoperative change of frailty status in older patients with colorectal cancer. This cohort concluded that whether postoperative complication occurred or not was closely associated with perioperative change of frailty status. Our prospective cohort study examined the factor influencing postoperative frailty in older patients with colorectal cancer by Kihon Checklist questionnaire. The importance of this study is that postoperative complication and ostomy creation were significantly associated with postoperative change of frailty status.

Abstract
Background Enhanced recovery care could alleviate surgical stress and accelerate the recovery rates of patients. Previous studies showed the benefits of enhanced recovery after surgery program in liver surgery, but the exact role in laparoscopic hepatectomy is still unclear. Aim We aimed to perform a meta-analysis to evaluate the safety and efficacy of enhanced recovery after a surgery program in laparoscopic hepatectomy. Methods The relative studies from a specific search of PUBMED, EMBASE, OVID, and Cochrane database from June 2008 to February 2022 were selected and included in this meta-analysis. The primary outcomes included length of hospital stay, duration to functional recovery, and overall postoperative complication rate. The secondary outcomes included operative time, intraoperative blood loss, cost of hospitalization, readmission rate, Grade I complication rate, and Grade II–V complication rate. Results A total of six studies with 643 patients [enhanced recovery care (n = 274) vs. traditional care (n = 369)] were eligible for analysis. These comprised three randomized controlled trials and three retrospective studies. Enhanced recovery care group was associated with decreased hospital stay [standard mean difference (SMD) = −0.56, 95% confidence interval (CI) = −0.83~−0.28, p < 0.0001], shorter duration to functional recovery (SMD = −1.14, 95% CI = −1.92~−0.37, p = 0.004), and lower cost of hospitalization Mean Difference (MD) = −1,539.62, 95% CI = −1992.85~−1086.39, p < 0.00001). Moreover, a lower overall postoperative complication rate was observed in enhanced recovery care group [Risk ratio (RR) = 0.64, 95% CI = 0.51~0.80, p < 0.0001] as well as lower Grade II–V complication rate (RR = 0.55, 95% CI = 0.38~0.80, p = 0.002), while there was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss (MD = −65.75, 95% CI = −158.47~26.97, p = 0.16), operative time (MD = −5.44, 95% CI = −43.46~32.58, p = 0.78), intraoperative blood transfusion rate [Odds ratio (OR) = 0.71, 95% CI = 0.41~1.22, p = 0.22], and Grade I complication rate (RR = 0.73, 95% CI = 0.53~1.03, p = 0.07). Conclusion Enhanced recovery care in laparoscopic hepatectomy should be recommended, because it is not only safe and effective, but also can accelerate the postoperative recovery and lighten the financial burden of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate a C-reactive protein (CRP)-driven monitoring discharge strategy for patients with Crohn's disease (CD) undergoing laparoscopic ileo-cecal resection (ICR) and if needed, temporary stoma closure (SC). METHODS Four hundred and ten patients who underwent laparoscopic ICR for CD: 153 patients (CRP group) between June 2016 and June 2020 at our department, had a CRP-driven monitoring discharge on postoperative day (POD) 3 and were discharged on POD 4 if CRP < 100 mg/L. These patients were matched (according to age, sex, body mass index, type of CD (and stoma or not) to 257 patients who underwent laparoscopic ICR for CD between January 2009 and May 2016, without CRP monitoring (Control group). For SC, 79 patients with CRP monitoring were matched with 88 control patients. Primary outcome was overall length of hospital stay (LHS). Secondary outcomes were discharge on POD 4 for SC and POD 4 and POD 6 for ICR, 3-month postoperative overall morbidity and severe morbidity rates, surgical site infection, readmission rates, and CRP level in cases of morbidity at 3 months. RESULTS For ICR without stoma, mean LHS was significantly shorter in the CRP group than in the control group (6.9 ± 2 days vs 8.3 ± 6 days, p = 0.017). Discharge occurred on POD 6 (or before) in 73% of the patients (CRP group) vs 60% (Control group) (p = 0.027). For ICR with stoma, LHS was 8 days for both groups (p = 0.612). For SC, LHS was significantly shorter in the CRP group than in the control group (5.5 ± 3 days vs 7.1 ± 4 days; p = 0.002). Discharge occurred on POD 4 in 62% (CRP group) vs 30% (Control) (p = 0.003). Postoperative 3-month overall and severe morbidity, and rehospitalization rates were similar between groups. CONCLUSIONS CRP-driven monitoring discharge strategy after laparoscopic ICR for CD is associated with a significant reduction of LHS, without increasing morbidity, reoperation or rehospitalisation rates.

J Gastrointest Surg 2022; 26:635-642. [PMID: 34618324 PMCID: PMC9217180 DOI: 10.1007/s11605-021-05158-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2021] [Accepted: 09/09/2021] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
Patients who undergo colorectal surgery, particularly, construction of a new ileostomy, are known to have longer length of stay (LOS) and increased readmissions. With the increased availability of patient engagement technology (PET), we hypothesized that because PET facilitates education before and after surgery, ileostomy patients who used PET would have decreased LOS without increasing readmissions. Variables were obtained from the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database for patients undergoing ileostomy construction. Study patients were categorized into three groups: pre-PET (patients prior to PET), non-PET (patients who did not use PET), and PET users (patients who used PET). Univariate analysis of patient and surgical characteristics, LOS, ED visits, and readmissions and multivariable modeling of potential predictors of LOS were performed. There were 106 patients in the pre-PET, 51 in the PET, and 108 in the non-PET and cohorts were similar except pre-op diagnosis. Length of stay was lower for the PET cohort (p = 0.0001), with no significant difference in readmission or ED visits. On multivariable analysis, we identified the PET cohort as an independent predictor of shorter LOS relative to non-PET and pre-PET (p = 0.007 and p = 0.02, respectively). Similarly, patients had significantly shorter LOS who had a diagnosis of neoplasm as compared to IBD (p = 0.03). Hypertension requiring medication (p = 0.001) and Black race relative to White race (p = 0.002) were independent predictors of longer LOS. In this study of ileostomy patients, we have shown that use of PET is an independent predictor of decreased LOS without increased ED visits or readmissions.

Abstract
Objectives: To identify nursing interventions, their characteristics, and outcomes for promoting self-care in candidates for a bowel elimination ostomy.
Materials and methods: A scoping review was carried out based on the Joanna Briggs Institute’s recommendations. For this, studies published in Portuguese, English, and Spanish on the Web of Science, CINAHL, and Scopus databases and without a time limit were selected on November 9, 2020.
Results: Of 2248 articles identified, 41 were included in this review. We identified 20 nursing interventions associated with the self-care of patients with an ostomy; most of them have gaps in their content, method, and frequency or dosing. More than 30 indicators were identified to assess the impact of nursing interventions; however, most of them were indirect assessments.
Conclusion: There is scarce evidence regarding the different aspects that must be involved in nursing interventions for patients with a stoma. Moreover, there is no standardization in methods, frequency, or dosing of intervention. It is urgent to define the content, method, and frequency of nursing interventions necessary to promote self-care in patients with a bowel elimination ostomy and to use assessment tools that directly measure stoma self-care competence.

Abstract
Whereas the advancement of minimally invasive surgical techniques and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways for partial colectomies has shortened postoperative length of stay, the ideal length of stay after partial colectomy with or without diverting loop ileostomy is still up for debate. This article examines the safety and efficacy of discharging select patients home from day surgery following partial colectomy. We performed a retrospective review of 7 patients who underwent partial colectomy at one tertiary care center from December 2020 to August 2021. None of our cases suffered complications such as anastomotic leak, surgical site infection, or bowel obstruction or required admission to the hospital. One patient was seen in the emergency department on postoperative day 1 for nausea and vomiting and was managed as an outpatient. A second patient required a fluid bolus in the clinic for high ileostomy output. In conclusion, our study suggests that appropriately selected patients can be successfully managed in the outpatient setting without increased complications following partial colectomy when preoperative preparation and education are put in place alongside our colon ERAS pathway and minimally invasive surgical techniques.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction A therapeutic plan is elaborated based on the health needs of each user, allowing a multidisciplinary team to assess diagnoses, treatment options, bonds, and optimal hospitalization time.
Objectives To identify risk management tools already used and implemented in a reference teaching hospital in the city of São Paulo and to analyze their application and risk factors in medium and large colorectal surgery.
Method Observational, longitudinal, and prospective study, with 30 patients with colorectal disease hospitalized in the surgical ward of the coloproctology service and in need of surgical treatment. In the first group, the protocol was applied with the knowledge of the researcher only, and, in the second group, with the knowledge of both the researcher and the attending physicians.
Results Sixty percent of the patients were female with a mean age of 60.93 years and body mass index (BMI) of 26.07 Kg/m2.After surgery, patients in the first group who did not receive venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in the first 24 hours had an increased risk of having the event compared with those who returned to prophylaxis (p < 0.005), thus suggesting this prophylaxis was a protective factor against thromboembolic event (p = 0.006). This group also had a higher risk of hypoglycemia when no strict control was performed (p = 0.041).
Conclusion The compliance to hospital protocols with application monitoring, notedly in teaching places with annual admission of resident physicians, is a fundamental part of the adequate care of the patient combined with the implementation of therapeutic plans.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In this study we present the evidence based management for patients hospitalized for UC with a special focus on the synergic approach of the two key actors of the inflammatory bowel disease multidisciplinary team (IBD-MDT): gastroenterologist and surgeon. RECENT FINDINGS Focused treatment by a specialized IBD-MDT and early involvement of the colorectal surgeon in the management of hospitalized ulcerative colitis patients is advocated. The colectomy rate has not changed over the years. Moreover delayed surgery after admission is burden by increase complication and mortality. Thus, it is pivotal to identify the patients who are likely to undergo surgery, by mean of predictors of outcome, and to not prolong ineffective medical treatment. The perfect timing based on clinical close monitoring is crucial. Up to 25% of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) may require hospitalization. The aim of admission is to evaluate severity of the disease, exclude infections and establish proper treatment while monitoring the response. During admission, the patient has to be closely observed for the possible development of toxic megacolon or perforation, which should prompt emergency colectomy. Up to 30% of UC patients will fail to respond to initial intravenous corticosteroid. Non responder or partial responder to medical therapy should be evaluated for timely surgery or could be considered for rescue medical therapy.

Abstract
AIMS Explore the evidence from randomized controlled trials for the effect of self-management interventions on quality of life, self-management skills and self-efficacy, and to explore which intervention characteristics are associated with effectiveness. DESIGN Systematic review. DATA SOURCES A search of the literature was conducted in these databases: MEDLINE (OVID), EMBASE (OVID) and PsychINFO (OVID) from January 2000 to February 2020. REVIEW METHODS Studies were included if participants had a bowel stoma, were over the age of 18 and the design was a randomized controlled trial of a self-management programme. The outcome measures for this review were quality of life, self-management skills and self-efficacy. The Behaviour Change Technique Taxonomy was used to code interventions for underlying components and alongside other intervention characteristics, associations with improvements in outcomes were explored. RESULTS The search identified 3141 articles, 16 of which were eligible. A meta-analysis of self-efficacy scores from five studies (N = 536) found an improvement in those that received the self-management intervention at follow-up with a 12-point mean difference compared with the usual care group. Effects on quality of life and self-management skills were mixed, and meta-analyses of these data were not possible. Across 13 studies an average of 10 behaviour change techniques were used with, credible source (e.g. nurse, doctor, therapist) (n = 13), instruction on how to perform the behaviour (n = 13), demonstration of the behaviour (n = 12) used most often. The behaviour change technique of self-monitoring was associated with an improvement in quality of life. The involvement of a nurse was associated with higher self-efficacy and self-management skills. CONCLUSION This review suggests that self-management interventions can increase peoples' self-efficacy for managing their stoma. IMPACT A standardized approach to the reporting of interventions and the measures used is needed in future studies to better understand the effect on quality of life and self-management skills.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rectal resection surgery is often followed by a loop ileostomy creation. Despite improvements in surgical technique and development of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols, the readmission-rate after rectal resection is still estimated to be around 30%. The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for readmission after rectal resection surgery. This study also investigated whether elderly patients (≥ 65 years old) dispose of a distinct patient profile and associated risk factors for readmission. METHODS This is a retrospective study of prospectively collected data from patients who consecutively underwent rectal resection for cancer within an ERAS protocol between 2011 and 2016. The primary study endpoint was 90-day readmission. Patients with and without readmission within 90 days were compared. Additional subgroup analysis was performed in patients ≥ 65 years old. RESULTS A total of 344 patients were included, and 25% (n = 85) were readmitted. Main reasons for readmission were acute renal insufficiency (24%), small bowel obstruction (20%), anastomotic leakage (15%) and high output stoma (11%). In multivariate logistic regression, elevated initial creatinine level (cut-off values: 0.67-1.17 mg/dl) (OR 1.95, p = 0.041) and neoadjuvant radiotherapy (OR 2.63, p = 0.031) were significantly associated with readmission. For ileostomy related problems, elevated initial creatinine level (OR 2.76, p = 0.021) was identified to be significant. CONCLUSION Recovery after rectal resection within an ERAS protocol is hampered by the presence of a loop ileostomy. ERAS protocols should include stoma education and high output stoma prevention.
