Enhanced Recovery After Hepatic Surgery (MultiPAS). (MultiPAS)

April 1, 2016 updated by: University Hospital, Angers

Enhanced Recovery After Hepatic Surgery Versus Conventional Care : a Controlled Randomized Monocentric Trial (MultiPAS).

Enhanced rehabilitation programs are based on new therapies and treatment combinations to reduce the length of hospitalization, duration of postoperative convalescence, morbidity, but also the overall cost of care. The operating stress and hypercatabolic conditions surrounding the surgery are sources of complications. In this enhanced rehabilitation approach, the principle is to fight through a series of actions against this surgical stress. Several North American studies, Chinese, Scandinavian or Batavian have shown the feasibility and the interest of enhanced perioperative rehabilitation in liver surgery. Nevertheless, there is not until now French data concerning the assessment of enhanced rehabilitation in liver surgery. The main objective of the study is to compare the effectiveness of the implementation of a multimodal management program after liver surgery in a French university center compared to conventional care. Secondary objectives of the study are to compare an enhanced rehabilitation program in liver surgery versus conventional treatment in terms of morbidity and mortality in the immediate postoperative period and until day 90, length of hospital stay, blood loss and the delay to bowel mobility recovery. Compliance to the program in both groups will also be evaluated.

Postoperative time Stimulation mobilization from D0 Refeeding "on demand " from D0 Early removal of venous, arterial and urinary catheters. J1 recovery from the majority of the usual treatment Breathe physiotherapy from D0 to D5 Ileus prevention by chewing gum
Other: Enhanced recovery

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Day number to functional recovery
Time Frame: 90 days

The evaluation of time to functional recovery is scored once a day. A patient is fully functionally recovered when all of the following criteria are satisfied:

  1. adequate pain control with oral analgesia: Post-operative pain is rated by the numeric rating scale. Nurses ask patients the intensity of their current pain on a scale of 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain). To satisfy this criterion, patient must rate their pain between 0 to 3 with only oral analgesics.
  2. restoration of mobility to an independent level We decided to use the Groningen Activity Restriction Scale for rated the difference between preoperative and postoperative mobility level. To satisfy this criterion, patient must have the same score in postoperative.
  3. absence of intravenous fluid administration for at least 24 hours.
  4. ability to eat solid foods well tolerated for at least 24 hours to satisfy this criterion.
  5. normal or decreasing serum bilirubin level and international normalised ratio.
90 days
