Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of perioperative fast-track surgery(FTS)program and nutrition support in the elderly patients with gastric cancer.Methods Totally 42 patients were equally randomized into FTS group(receiving perioperative FTS program)and control group(receiving a conventional therapy).The postoperative first defecation time,postoperative hospital stay,hospitahzation expenditure,and postoperative complications were compared between these two groups.Results The postoperative first defecation time and postoperative hospital stay were(75.4±24.3)hours and(11.2±3.2)days in FIS group and(98.0±22.6)hours and(14.4±4.6)days in control group(P=0.0165,P=0.0004;respectively).The hospitalization expenditure was significantly lower in FTS group than in control group[(3.66±0.48)×104 vs.(4.56±0.78)×104 RMB yuan;P=0.0001].The incidence of postoperative complications in FTS group was also significantly lower than that in control group(9.5% vs.28.6%,P=0.0422).Conclusion Perioperative FTS program can accelerate postoperative rehabilitation,shorten hospital stay,lower hospitalization expenditure,and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.
