Due to the high lung cancer morbidity and the need for surgical intervention in that patient population, introduction of the concept of standard protocol for enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) may lead to a significant decrease of the rate of postoperative complications and hospital stay. The aim of the review was to assess the main components of ERAS protocol in thoracic cancer surgery using video-assisted thoracoscopic interventions (VATS). Systematic implementation of specific measures in pre- (patient consulting before the intervention, compliance with fluid and nutrition regimen, exclusion of routine sedation, prophylaxis of venous thrombosis, use of intravenous antibiotics and alcohol skin-prepping solution with chlorohexidine), intra- (prevention of hypothermia, thoracoscopic approach, single-tube approach in anatomic lung resections, exclusion of pleural tube insertion, urethral catheterization for less than 2 hours and only in case of epidural anesthesia) and postoperative (early mobilization and cessation of intravenous infusion, pain control using combination of acetaminophen with NSAIDs, maintenance of normovolemy, use of balanced crystalloid solutions and non-pharmacological measures for nausea and vomiting control) periods promote improved outcomes, decrease of postoperative complication rate and postoperative mortality

AbstractBackgroundEnhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a perioperative treatment intended to speed up recovery of surgical patients. Pulmonary lobectomy is a high-risk procedure, which ERAS is intended to address.ObjectiveWe evaluated the application of ERAS to patients with lung cancer.Interventions/MethodsOf 337 patients who underwent pulmonary lobectomies for lung cancer at our hospital, 168 received traditional perioperative nursing, and 169 received ERAS. Their complication rates, numerical rating scale of pain (NRS), satisfaction with care, demographics and some inpatient indices before and after surgery were compared.ResultsThe two groups did not significantly differ in general data or NRS score at 6 post-operative hours (P = 0.214) and 1 post-operative day (POD; P = 0.027). The ERAS group had lower incidence of postoperative lung complication (P = 0.008), shorter length of stay (P < 0.001), shorter enterokinesia recovery times (P < 0.001), lower hospitalization costs (P < 0.001), lower NRS scores at POD 2–5 (P < 0.001), higher nursing satisfaction (P < 0.001), and higher postoperative pulmonary function indices of maximal voluntary ventilation (MVV; P < 0.001), forced vital capacity (FVC; P = 0.002), and forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1; P = 0.002) than did the traditional group.ConclusionERAS is applicable to lung surgery patients.Implications for PracticeApplying ERAS to thoracic surgery patients can alleviate their postoperative pain, shorten enterokinesia recovery, lower postoperative complication incidence, reduce hospitalization expenses, and raise nursing satisfaction, thereby expediting recovery.

Abstract Background The study aimed to evaluate the outcomes following the implementation of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) for patients undergoing lung cancer surgery. Method A retrospective cohort study involving 1749 patients with lung cancer undergoing pulmonary resection was conducted. The patients were divided into two time period groups for analysis (routine pathway and ERAS pathway). Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the risks of developing postoperative pulmonary complications. Results Among the 1749 patients, 691 were stratified into the ERAS group, and 1058 in to the routine group. The ERAS group presented with shorter postoperative in-hospital length of stay (LOS) (4.0 vs 6.0, P < 0.001), total LOS (10.0 vs. 13.0 days, P < 0.001), and lower total in-hospital costs (P < 0.001), including material (P < 0.001) and drug expenses (P < 0.001). Furthermore, the ERAS group also presented with a lower occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) than the routine group (15.2% vs. 19.5%, P = 0.022). Likewise, a significantly lower occurrence of pneumonia (8.4% vs. 14.2%, P < 0.001) and atelectasis (5.9% vs. 9.8%, P = 0.004) was found in the ERAS group. Regarding the binary logistic regression, the ERAS intervention was the sole independent factor for the occurrence of PPCs (OR: 0.601, 95% CI 0.434–0.824, P = 0.002). In addition, age (OR: 1.032, 95% CI 1.018–1.046), COPD (OR: 1.792, 95% CI 1.196–2.686), and FEV1 (OR: 0.205, 95% CI 0.125–0.339) were also independent predictors of PPCs. Conclusion Implementation of an ERAS pathway shows improved postoperative outcomes, including shortened LOS, lower in-hospital costs, and reduced occurrence of PPCs, providing benefits to the postoperative recovery of patients with lung cancer undergoing surgical treatment.

Abstract Background the study was aimed to evaluate the outcomes following implementation of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery.Method a retrospective cohort study with 1,749 patients with lung cancer undergoing pulmonary resection was conducted. Two time period of the patients were included for analyzing (routine pathway and ERAS pathway). Logistic regression analysis and nomogram model was created respectively to assess the risks of postoperative pulmonary complications.Results Among those 1,749 patients, 691 of them was stratified into ERAS group, compared to 1,058 in routine group. ERAS group presented shorter postoperative in-hospital length of stay (LOS) (4.0 vs 6.0, P<0.001), total LOS (10.0 VS. 13.0 days, P<0.001), lower total in-hospital cost (P<0.001) including material (P<0.001), and drug expense (P<0.001). Meanwhile, ERAS group presented lower occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) compared to routine group (15.2% vs. 19.5%, P=0.022). Likewise, a significantly lower occurrence of pneumonia (8.4% vs. 14.2%, P<0.001) or atelectasis (5.9% vs. 9.8%, P=0.004) was found in ERAS group. Regarding to Binary logistic regression, ERAS intervention was the independent factor for the occurrence of PPCs (OR: 0.601, 95%CI: 0.434-0.824, P=0.002). In addition, age (OR: 1.032, 95%CI: 1.018-1.046), COPD (OR: 1.792, 95%CI: 1.196-2.686), and FEV1(OR: 0.205, 95%CI: 0.125-0.339) were independent predictors for PPCs. A nomogram with a C-index of 0.663 was constructed.Conclusion implementation of an ERAS pathway shows improved postoperative outcomes including shortened LOS, less in-hospital cost, and reduced occurrence of PPCs, providing benefits of postoperative recovery for patients with lung cancer undergoing surgical treatment.Clinical registration number: ChiCTR1900022478
