Rapid rehabilitation nursing improves clinical outcomes in postoperative patients with colorectal carcinoma: A...

Colorectal carcinoma has a high incidence rate and the high mortality rate has always been an important global health challenge. Surgical treatment is widely performed in patients with colorectal carcinoma. Fast track surgery (FTS) applies evidence-based medical concept to optimize the management during the operation, so as to reduce the psychological and physical trauma stress of surgical patients and make them recover rapidly. We perform this protocol for randomized controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of a rapid rehabilitation care in colorectal carcinoma surgery.

It is a single-center randomized controlled study to be conducted from January 2021 to December 2021. It was authorized via the Ethics Committee of the Huzhou Central Hospital (20191127-01). Eighty participants who undergo colorectal carcinoma surgery will be included in this research. Patients are randomly assigned to control group (standard management group, including 40 samples) and study group (the FTS group, including 40 samples). The main results are times of postoperative exhaust, first defecation, ambulation, first eating, and postoperative hospital stay. Secondary outcomes are incidence of nausea and emesis, wound infection, urinary tract infection, lung infection, deep vein thrombosis, and rehospitalization rate among the 2 groups. All analyses are conducted using the SPSS for Windows Release 15.0.

Figure 1 shows the clinical results between groups.

The research can offer a reliable basis for the effectiveness of a rapid recovery nursing program in patients with colorectal carcinoma.

This study protocol was registered in Research Registry (researchregistry6038).
