Discussion on the influence of optimizing the perioperative management on the recovery after laparoscopic hysterectomy

Abstract

The concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) was first proposed by Professor Kehlet from the University of Copenhagen in Denmark in 1997. The aim is to optimize multiple perioperative management measures, promote rapid postoperative recovery, shorten hospital stay, and reduce surgical related costs, this article explores the effect of optimizing perioperative bowel preparation and diet management under the strategy of ERAS on the postoperative recovery of patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign gynecological diseases. We selected 90 patients who underwent laparoscopic total hysterectomy for benign gynecological diseases at Hebei General Hospital from June 2018 to June 2019, these patients are between the ages of 40 and 65. Divide these 90 patients into an experimental group and a control group using a random number table method (n = 45). The experimental group of patients applied the concept of accelerated rehabilitation surgery for perioperative intestinal preparation and dietary management. The control group patients received routine perioperative management. Compare the first postoperative exhaust time, first postoperative defecation time, incision healing status 7 days after surgery, and pelvic infection status 1 month after surgery between 2 groups of patients. The first postoperative exhaust time and first postoperative bowel movement time of the experimental group patients were shorter than those of the control group (P < .05), and the difference was statistically significant; The incidence of poor incision healing 7 days after surgery was lower than that of the control group (P < .05), and the difference was statistically significant; There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of postoperative pelvic infection between the experimental group and the control group (P > .05). Perioperative intestinal preparation and dietary management under the concept of accelerated rehabilitation surgery can promote postoperative recovery of patients undergoing laparoscopic total hysterectomy, promote incision healing, and have good safety.
