About this study

Official title: A Randomized Controlled Trial of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Protocal Versus Traditional Care in Laparoscopic Hepatectomy

The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical value of enhanced recovery after surgery protocal in laparoscopic hepatectomy by assessing its outcomes and hospital stay days comparing with traditional care .

Read the detailed description

The ERAS programs has been proved to be a useful solutions in patients undergoing colorectal surgery in terms of significantly reduced postoperative complications and shorter length of hospital stay, compared to the patients of conventional treatment.

But few studies reported about the ERAS programs in the laparoscopic hepatectomy.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical value of enhanced recovery after surgery protocal in laparoscopic hepatectomy by assessing its outcomes and hospital stay days comparing with traditional care .

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. post-operative hospital stay

    participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 6 days

    Measured: up to 4 weeks after surgery

  2. Recovering Rate

    1. No major complication
    2. Tolerance of semiliquid diet
    3. Normal activity
    4. Good pain control with analgesic-free or oral analgesics.

    Measured: 6 days after surgery

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Time to functional recovery (days from operation to functional recovery)

    Normal or decreasing serum bilirubin Good pain control with oral analgesia only Tolerance of solid food No intravenous fluids Mobile independently or at the preoperative level All of the above is functional recovery.

    Measured: up to 4 weeks after surgery

  2. cost of hospitalization

    medical expense

    Measured: up to 1 month after surgery

  3. Quality of life

    EQ-5d health questionnaire and Kolcaba's GCQ (General Comfort Questionnaire), before the operation, on postoperation 1 day, postoperation 3 day, postoperation 5 day, postoperation 1 month

    Measured: up to 1 month after surgery

  4. operation time

    Measured: the day of surgery

  5. associated cytokines in peripheral blood (IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α)

    associated cytokines in peripheral blood were tested on preoperation, postoperation Day1, postoperation Day2, postoperation Day4

    Measured: before the operation, on postoperation 1 day, postoperation 2 day, postoperation 4 day

  6. liver function

    liver function were tested on preoperation, postoperation Day1, postoperation Day2, postoperation Day4, postoperation 1 month if PT ≥ 50% and TB ≥ 50 μmol/L, it supports the liver dysfunction.

    Measured: up to 1 month after surgery

  7. Visual Analog Score for pain

    postoperative 2hours, 6 hours, 1 days, 2 days, 3 days, 4 days and 5 days

    Measured: up to 5 days after surgery

  8. Estimated blood loss

    blood loss during the operation

    Measured: the day of surgery
