BACKGROUND: Lung cancer is currently the most prevalent malignancy and the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Although the early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) presents a relatively good prognosis, a considerable number of lung cancer cases are still detected and diagnosed at locally advanced or late stages. Surgical treatment combined with perioperative multimodality treatment is the mainstay of treatment for locally advanced NSCLC and has been shown to improve patient survival. Following the standard methods of neoadjuvant therapy, perioperative management, postoperative adjuvant therapy, and other therapeutic strategies are important for improving patients' prognosis and quality of life. However, controversies remain over the perioperative management of NSCLC and presently consensus and standardized guidelines are lacking for addressing critical clinical issues in multimodality treatment. METHODS: The working group consisted of 125 multidisciplinary experts from thoracic surgery, medical oncology, radiotherapy, epidemiology, and psychology. This guideline was developed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system. The clinical questions were collected and selected based on preliminary open-ended questionnaires and subsequent discussions during the Guideline Working Group meetings. PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) were searched for available evidence. The GRADE system was used to evaluate the quality of evidence and grade the strengths of recommendations. Finally, the recommendations were developed through a structured consensus-building process. RESULTS: The Guideline Development Group initially collected a total of 62 important clinical questions. After a series of consensus-building conferences, 24 clinical questions were identified and corresponding recommendations were ultimately developed, focusing on neoadjuvant therapy, perioperative management, adjuvant therapy, postoperative psychological rehabilitation, prognosis assement, and follow-up protocols for NSCLC. CONCLUSIONS This guideline puts forward reasonable recommendations focusing on neoadjuvant therapy, perioperative management, adjuvant therapy, postoperative psychological rehabilitation, prognosis assessment, and follow-up protocol of NSCLC. It standardizes perioperative multimodality treatment and provides guidance for clinical practice among thoracic surgeons, medical oncologists, and radiotherapists, aiming to reduce postoperative recurrence, improve patient survival, accelerate recovery, and minimize postoperative complications such as atelectasis.

OBJECTIVE: To optimize the perioperative management experiences for breast cancer patients undergoing direct-to-implant-based breast reconstruction, and provide reference for clinical practice. METHODS: A comprehensive review of recent domestic and international literature was conducted to systematically summarize the key points of perioperative management for direct-to-implant-based breast reconstruction, including preoperative health education, intraoperative strategies, and postoperative management measures, along with an introduction to the clinical experiences of West China Hospital of Sichuan University. RESULTS: Standardized perioperative management can effectively reduce the incidence of complications and achieve excellent cosmetic outcomes and quality of life after operation. Preoperative management includes proactive health education to alleviate patients' anxiety and improve treatment compliance, as well as comprehensive assessment by surgeons of the patient's physical condition and reconstructive expectations to select the most appropriate implant. Intraoperative management consists of strict aseptic technique, minimizing implant exposure, preserving blood supply to the nipple-areola complex (e.g., by using minimally invasive techniques or indocyanine green angiography, etc), and meticulous hemostasis. Postoperative management encompasses multimodal analgesia, individualized drain management (such as early removal or retaining a small amount of fluid to optimize contour), infection prevention and control (including topical and systemic antibiotics, ultrasound-guided minimally invasive drainage), guidance on rehabilitation exercises (early activity restriction followed by gradual recovery), and regular follow-up to evaluate aesthetic results and monitor for complications. CONCLUSION Establishing a standardized, multidisciplinary perioperative management framework markedly enhances surgical safety and patient satisfaction, thereby providing a replicable benchmark for direct-to-implant-based breast reconstruction across diverse clinical settings.

OBJECTIVE: To review current status of clinical application and research progress of different anticoagulants in perioperative period of free flap transplantation. METHODS: A comprehensive review of recent relevant literature was conducted, focusing on clinical research concerning the application of anticoagulants in the perioperative period of free flap transplantation. The administration route, timing, dosage selection, effectiveness, and safety of commonly used and novel anticoagulants were summarized. RESULTS: At present, the anticoagulants mainly used in the perioperative period of free flap transplantation include drugs for venous thrombosis prophylaxis, drugs for arterial thrombosis prophylaxis, and physical/colloidal anticoagulants, etc. The administration strategies can be classified into two major categories: single-agent anticoagulation and combined anticoagulation. Single-agent anticoagulation mainly includes unfractionated heparin, low-molecular-weight heparin, aspirin, and novel anticoagulants. Combined anticoagulation is commonly a synergistic anticoagulation regimen dominated by heparin drugs, combined with aspirin, different antiplatelet drugs, and expansion agents. Studies indicate that perioperative anticoagulant administration can effectively reduce the risk of thrombosis in free flaps and improve the overall flap survival rate. However, significant differences exist in the impact of drug types, administration routes, initiation timing, and dosage intensity on efficacy and bleeding risk. A unified, standardized application protocol has not yet been established. In addition, there has been a growing number of studies on novel anticoagulant drugs. However, their superiority and optimal application strategies in the field of free flap transplantation still necessitate more high-quality evidence. CONCLUSION Perioperative anticoagulation therapy represents one of the key strategies for improving the survival rate of free flaps. However, there is still a lack of high-level evidence to establish a standard protocol. Future research should focus on the optimization of individualized anticoagulation strategies, the validation of the effectiveness of new anticoagulants, and the exploration of the advantages of different anticoagulation strategies. At the same time, attention should be paid to balancing anticoagulation and bleeding risks to promote the standardization of clinical practice and the improvement of treatment safety.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of innovative perioperative pain management on prostate cancer patients with hematuria undergoing prostatic artery embolization (PAE). METHODS: A total of 60 patients undergoing PAE in the Interventional Therapy Department of General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command from May 2024 to January 2025 were selected by convenience sampling method and randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group, with 30 patients in each group. The control group received traditional pain management of nursing. An innovative perioperative pain management was performed in intervention group including preoperative "body-mind-pain" holistic assessment and preparation, intraoperative humanistic care and real-time support, postoperative multimodal analgesia and rehabilitation, dynamic monitoring and closed-loop feedback. The pain degree after 6 hours, 1 day, 3 days and 1 week of the operation, and the quality of life after 1 week of operation, as well as nursing satisfaction at discharge were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: The VAS scores of the intervention group were significantly lower than those of the control group after 6 hours, 1 day, 3 days and 1 week of operation (P<0.05). One week after the operation, the quality of life in the observation group was higher than that of the control group significantly (P<0.05). The nursing satisfaction of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group at discharge(P<0.05). CONCLUSION The application of innovative perioperative pain management can alleviate pain of patients with PAE, which improves the quality of life and nursing satisfaction of patients, and is conducive to the rehabilitation of patients.

INTRODUCTION: Emergency laparotomy (EL) is associated with high morbidity and mortality, often exceeding 10%. This study evaluated the impact of the EMergency Laparotomy Audit (EMLA) interdisciplinary perioperative pathway on patient outcomes, hospital costs and length of stay (LOS) within a single centre. METHOD: A prospective cohort study was conducted from August 2020 to July 2023. The intervention team included specialist clinicians, hospital administrators and an in-hospital quality improvement team. Patients who underwent EL were divided into a pre-intervention control group (n=136) and a post-intervention group (n=293), and an 8-item bundle was implemented. Propensity scoring with a 1:1 matching method was utilised to reduce confounding and selection bias. The primary outcomes examined were LOS, hospitalis-ation costs and surgical morbidity, while secondary outcomes included 30-day mortality and adherence to the intervention protocol. RESULTS: The utilisation of the EMLA perioperative care bundle led to a significant reduction in surgical complications (34.8% to 20.6%, P<0.01), a decrease in LOS by 3.3 days (15.4 to 12.1 days, P=0.03) and lower hospitalisation costs (SGD 40,160 to 30,948, P=0.04). Compliance with key interventions also showed improvement. However, there was no difference in 30-day mortality. CONCLUSION This study offers insights on how surgical units can implement systemic perioperative changes to improve outcomes for patients undergoing emergency laparotomy.
