ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the safety and feasibility of fast track surgery (FTS) in the promotion of postoperative recovery for gastric cancer patients undergoing gastrectomy.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January to December in 2013, 71 gastric cancer patients were prospectively enrolled and randomized into the FTS group and the control group. Patient in the FTS group received FTS management and those in the control group received routine management. The postoperative recovery and stress were compared between the two groups.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>FTS was associated with shorter time to bowel function return [(67.8±19.7) h vs. (90.0±20.6) h, P<0.01], shorter hospital stay [(13.5±3.0) d vs. (17.8±7.3) d, P=0.01], lower hospital cost [(23.8±3.7) thousand Yuan vs. (27.8±6.1) thousand Yuan, P<0.05], and less stress response (lower pain score, WBC count, C-reactive protein, all P<0.01). The postoperative complications including ileus, infection, anastomotic leakage were similar (all P>0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Fast track surgery decreases postoperative stress response and promotes recovery.</p>
