Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators wish to standardise and optimise perioperative care for consecutive patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy for weight loss. The investigators will compare patients under a standardised perioperative care program to patients who undergo routine perioperative in our hospital and determine whether patients who had optimised perioperative care went home earlier and had fewer complications.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

ERAS

The perioperative management of the patients in this arm will be according to a fast-track protocol designed by the investigators. The preoperative component of this program is the same as routine practice. Intraoperative and postoperative components which are different to routine practice are as described in the intervention section. This protocol is based on current literature regarding Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS).

Intervention Type OTHER

Intraoperative:

1. Pre-op carbohydrate loading
2. No pre-op GIK while NBM
3. Pre-medication
4. Dexamethasone 4mg as antiemetic, IV Paracetamol (first dose) Parecoxib 40mg
5. Ondansetron regularly for first 48 hours and Cyclizine, Droperidol or Scopaderm as rescue antiemetics
6. Fluid restriction
7. Standardised method of anaesthesia
8. Give 40ml 0.5% bupivacaine with adrenaline administered prior to placement of laparoscopic port sites
9. 10ml 0.75% ropivacaine diluted to 50ml with 0.9% normal saline solution administered to surgical site prior to procedure

Postoperative:

1. Rescue PCA for up to 12 hours. Oxynorm 5mg for rescue pain. Oxycontin 20mg bd/prn postoperatively
2. Maintenance IV fluids (60ml/hr plasmalyte to be stopped 0800 day 1 post op). Clear oral fluids 2 hours post op. Bariatric free oral fluids morning of day 1
3. Post operative oxygenation
4. Incentive spirometry
5. Drains (e.g. IDC) removed in recovery
6. Full mobilisation 4-8 hours post op)
7. Early Follow up

non ERAS

The perioperative management of patients in this arm will be according to routine practice currently implemented at our institution.
