Clinical effect of restrict rehydration strategy on anastomotic healing of patients with colorectal cancer in fast-track / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss the clinical effect of restrict rehydration strategy on anastomotic healing of patients with colorectal cancer.Methods 483 cases of colorectal cancer ( from January 2008 to November 2009) were analyzed retrospectively,166 in fluid restriction group and 317 in tradition therapy group.Postoperative early rehabilitations and complications were studied and compared.Results The first time of passing flatus(3.9 d vs 4.4 d),first ambulation(2.9 d vs 3.3 d),oral intake(2.9 d vs 3.6 d),time with use of urinary catheter(4.6 d vs 5.5 d),and drains(2.2 d vs 3.1 d),and postoperative hospital stay ( 8.7 d vs 11.6 d) in fluid restriction group were significantly earlier or less than those in tradition therapy group ( P ＜ 0.01 ),while there were no significant differences in time with use of nasogastric tubes ( 1.1 d vs 1.2 d) between the 2 groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ).There was significant difference in the postoperative complications rate between the two groups ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions Restrictive fluid regimen could reduce the incidence of common complications for patients after colorectal surgery,and might have a certain promoter action to the anastomotic healing.
