Brief Summary

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

This multicenter, prospective randomized controlled study is designed to applicate perioperative Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) management for children with acute complicated appendicitis, the aim is to promote postoperative recovery, shorten the hospital length of stay, and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of this study is through multi-center prospective RCT research, to discuss the application of ERAS in children with acute complicated appendicitis, including its preoperative rehydration, postoperative analgesia, preoperative and postoperative antibiotics application, as well as the discharge standards and so on. The major outcome is whether it can reduce the length of stay in hospital (LOS), secondary outcomes are included the incidence of postoperative complications and postoperative readmission rate, etc.
