Brief Summary

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

An enterocutaneous fistula (ECF) poses a major surgical problem. The definitive surgical repair of persistent fistulas remains a surgical challenge with a high rate of re-fistulation and mortality, and the reasons for that is not the surgical technique alone. Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS®) is an evidence-based multimodal perioperative protocol proven to reduce postoperative complications. The aim of the study was to assess the clinical value of ERAS protocol in surgical patients with ECF.

Detailed Description

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

ERAS protocol was used in all patients scheduled for surgery for ECF at the Stanley Dudrick's Memorial Hospital in Skawina between 2011 and 2020. A multidisciplinary team (MDT) was in charge of the program and performed annual audits. A consecutive series of 100 ECF patients (44 F, 56 M, mean age 54.1) was evaluated. Postoperative complications rate, readmission rate, length of hospital stay, prevalence of postoperative nausea and vomiting were assessed.
