Meta analysis of the application of ERAS concept in orthopedic surgery / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the value and effectiveness of the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) theory in orthopedic surgery, and to provide a theoretical basis for optimizing rehabilitation plans during the perioperative period of orthopedic surgery.Methods:Relevant literature on the application of accelerated rehabilitation in orthopedic perioperative period officially published in Pubmed and the Chinese Medical Journal Database From January 2000 to October 2022 was searched and included in randomized controlled and clinical case studies. The patients were divided into the experimental group (ERAS group) and the control group (conventional treatment group). The patients in the experimental group were treated with ERAS mode after surgery, while the patients in the control group were treated with conventional rehabilitation mode after surgery. The hospital stay, postoperative complications, postoperative nausea and vomiting, and postoperative incidence rate of deep vein thrombosis in the two groups were statistically analyzed.Results:Finally, a total of 1 301 patients were included in 9 articles, divided into an experimental group (ERAS group, n=643) and a control group (conventional treatment group, n=652). There was a statistically significant difference in hospital stay between the experimental group and the control group ( MD=-4.11, 95% CI -6.73 to -1.49, P=0.002); The overall effect tendency of the incidence of complications between the experimental group and the control group was statistically significant ( P=0.005); Compared with the control group, the incidence rate of postoperative nausea and vomiting in the experimental group was lower ( P=0.04); The incidence rate of postoperative deep vein thrombosis in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group ( P=0.02). Conclusions:The application of accelerated rehabilitation concept in orthopedic surgery patients can reduce the length of hospital stay, and reduce the incidence rate of postoperative complications, nausea and vomiting, and deep vein thrombosis.
