Value Analysis of Operating Room Care Protocol Based on Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) Concept in Patients
1Department of Nursing, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, 200025 Shanghai, China.
Objective:
To investigate the application value of an operating room nursing protocol based on the Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) concept in patients with prostate cancer undergoing laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP).
Methods:
A retrospective collection was conducted on patients who were scheduled to undergo LRP and admitted to the urology department of Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2024 to June 2025. The general preoperative, surgical-related and clinical data of the two groups of patients were collected and compared.
Results:
A total of 147 patients with LRP were collected during the study. These patients were divided into the traditional nursing (n = 73) and ERAS (n = 74) groups in accordance with different nursing plans. No significant difference was found in the general data of the two groups before surgery (p > 0.05). In the ERAS group, the moments marking the first discharge and exhaust, along with the lengths of time of urinary catheter indwelling and overall hospital stays, were all markedly shorter than those in the group receiving traditional nursing care, with the disparities between the two groups being statistically significant (p < 0.001). Additionally, the patients in the ERAS group exhibited a notably higher average urinary flow rate than their counterparts in the traditional nursing group (p < 0.001). The first voiding time of the patients in the ERAS group was earlier than that of the patients in the traditional nursing group (p < 0.001). At 8, 12, 24 and 48 h after surgery, the Numerical Rating Scale scores of the patients in the ERAS group were lower than those of the patients in the traditional nursing group (p < 0.001). The results of repeated analysis of variance revealed a significant difference in the time-group main effect (p < 0.001). The Incontinence Quality of Life Questionnaire scores of the patients in the ERAS group were higher than those of the patients in the traditional nursing group at three days after surgery and discharge (p < 0.001).
Conclusions:
The operating room nursing protocol based on the ERAS concept has clinical value in patients with prostate cancer undergoing LRP.
