Morbidity after accelerated enhanced recovery protocol for colon cancer surgery.

ABSTRACT: Previous studies showed that accelerated enhanced recovery programs (ERPs) with discharge 1-3 days after colorectal surgery are feasible for specific patients without compromising patients' safety. This study aimed to examine the incidence, severity, and treatment of complications after treatment according to an accelerated ERP (CHASE). This accelerated ERP consisted of adjustments in pre-, peri- and postoperative care. Patients treated according to the CHASE protocol were compared to a retrospective cohort of patients who received standard ERAS care. The primary outcome was the rate of severe complications. The overall complication rates were similar in both cohorts (CHASE 30.7% vs ERAS 31.4%, p = 0.958) as well as severe complications (CHASE 20.9% vs ERAS 21.4%, p = 0.950). Among the 113 patients with a complicated course, the readmission rate was significantly higher in the CHASE cohort (41.9% vs 21.4%, p = 0.020). LOS after readmission was longer in the CHASE cohort (p = 0.018), but the total LOS was shorter (4 versus 6 days, p = 0.001). This study demonstrates that accelerated recovery can be safe for ASA I-II patients and has the potential to become a standard of care. Moreover, the CHASE protocol proved to be beneficial in terms of total LOS for patients with complications.

Project description:ImportanceEnhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) care has been reported to be associated with improvements in outcomes after colorectal surgery compared with traditional care.ObjectiveTo determine the association between ERAS protocols and outcomes in patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery.Design, setting, and participantsThe Postoperative Outcomes Within Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Protocol (POWER) Study is a multicenter, prospective cohort study of 2084 consecutive adults scheduled for elective colorectal surgery who received or did not receive care in a self-declared ERAS center. Patients were recruited from 80 Spanish centers between September 15 and December 15, 2017. All patients included in this analysis had 1 month of follow-up.ExposuresColorectal surgery and perioperative management were the exposures. Twenty-two individual ERAS items were assessed in all patients, regardless of whether they were included in an established ERAS protocol.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary study outcome was moderate to severe postoperative complications within 30 days after surgery. Secondary outcomes included ERAS adherence, mortality, readmissions, reoperation rates, and hospital length of stay.ResultsBetween September 15 and December 15, 2017, 2084 patients were included in the study. Of these, 1286 individuals (61.7%) were men; mean age was 68 years (interquartile range [IQR], 59-77). A total of 879 patients (42.2%) presented with postoperative complications and 566 patients (27.2%) developed moderate to severe complications. The number of patients with moderate or severe complications was lower in the ERAS group (25.2% vs 30.3%; odds ratio [OR], 0.77; 95% CI, 0.63-0.94; P = .01). The overall rate of adherence to the ERAS protocol was 63.6% (IQR, 54.5%-77.3%), and the rate for patients from hospitals self-declared as ERAS was 72.7% (IQR, 59.1%-81.8%) vs non-ERAS institutions, which was 59.1% (IQR, 50.0%-63.6%; P < .001). Adherence quartiles among patients receiving the highest and lowest ERAS components showed that the patients with the highest adherence rates had fewer moderate to severe complications (OR, 0.34; 95% CI, 0.25-0.46; P < .001), overall complications (OR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.26-0.43; P < .001), and mortality (OR, 0.27; 95% CI, 0.07-0.97; P = .06) compared with those who had the lowest adherence rates.Conclusions and relevanceAn increase in ERAS adherence appears to be associated with a decrease in postoperative complications.
