Impact of the Rapid Recovery Concept on Complications and Patient Quality of Life in the Perioperative Nursing of Robot-Assisted Radical Oesophageal Cancer
Aim: This study evaluates the impact of Enhanced
Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) nursing on postoperative complications and quality of life in patients undergoing robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE). Methods: A total of 150 patients who underwent RAMIE from January 2020 to January
2022 at our hospital were randomly assigned to either the observation group or
the control group, with 75 patients in each. The control group received standard perioperative management and nursing
care, while the observation group was treated with ERAS nursing strategies.
Interventions continued until discharge, and outcomes such as postoperative
complications, quality of life, and
nutritional status were compared between the groups. Results: The observation group exhibited a significantly
lower incidence of postoperative adverse reactions compared to the control group (P < 0.05). Additionally, all dimension scores of the Short-Form 36
Health Survey (SF-36), including the
total score, were higher in the observation
group (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the Nutritional Risk Screening (NRS) scores
for impaired nutritional status
and disease severity, along with the total NRS
score, were significantly lower in the observation group compared to the
control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Implementing ERAS
nursing in the perioperative care of patients undergoing RAMIE is associated
with reduced postoperative complications and enhanced postoperative quality of
life and nutritional status.
