Fast-track Perioperative Program for Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery
The Impact of Fast-track Perioperative Program on the Clinical and Immunological Outcomes After Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery in Hong Kong Chinese Patients: A Prospective Randomized Trial
Background:
Laparoscopic colorectal surgery has been shown by randomized trials to be associated with better short-term clinical outcomes when compared with open surgery. However, in a traditional perioperative care setting, the reduction in hospital stay following laparoscopic surgery in these trials was modest. Fast-track perioperative programs have been introduced in the West to optimize perioperative factors to reduce the physiological/psychological stress of open colorectal surgery. However, few studies have evaluated the impact of fast-track programs on the outcomes after laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
Objective:
To compare the clinical and immunological outcomes of Hong Kong Chinese patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer with a "traditional" vs. a "fast-track" perioperative program.
Design:
Prospective randomized trial.
Subjects:
One hundred and twenty-eight consecutive patients undergoing elective laparoscopic resection of non-metastatic colonic and upper rectal cancer will be recruited.
Interventions:
Patients will be randomized to a "traditional" or a "fast-track" perioperative program.
Outcome measures:
Primary outcome: total postoperative hospital stay, including hospital stay of patients who are readmitted within 30 days after surgery. Secondary outcomes: immunological parameters (including systemic cytokine response and cell-mediated immune function), morbidity and mortality, quality of life, and medical costs.
