About this study

Detect impact of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) on the outcomes of oesophageal surgery .

Read the detailed description

esophagectomy for both malignant and benign disease has been identified as a particularly complex surgical procedure due to documented high levels of peri-operative morbidity and mortality.

A comprehensive review of complications associated with the esophagectomies performed in high-volume esophageal units utilizing a standardized format for documenting complications and quality measures has confirmed an overall complication rate of 59 % with 17.2% of patients sustaining complications of IIIb or greater utilizing the Clavien-Dindo severity grading system. post-operative complications include high rate of anastomotic leakage , pulmonary infection ,thoracic duct injury , voice changes , breathlessness ,long hospital stay.

These outcomes accentuate the need for providing an enhanced recovery after surgery standardized format for esophagectomy which can be routinely applied and audited to improve international outcomes. though ERAS lacking randomized control trials

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol in minimal invasive esophagectomyOther

    Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) refers to patient-centered, evidence-based, multidisciplinary team developed pathways for a surgical specialty and facility culture to reduce the patient's surgical stress response, optimize their physiologic function, and facilitate recovery.

  • standard of care approaches in minimal invasive esophagectomyOther

    standard of care approaches other than ERAS
