Objective To explore the impact of restrictive fluid administration for patients with colorectal cancer combined diabetes. Methods The clinical data of patients diagnosed definitely as colorectal cancer with diabetes were analyzed retrospectively from January 2007 to October 2009 in this hospital, the clinical effects on postoperative early rehabilitation were studied and the differences between restrictive fluid regimen (fluid restriction group) and tradition fluid regimen (tradition therapy group) were compared. Results The time of first aerofluxus and the first ambulation in fluid restriction group were shorter than those of tradition therapy group, the differences had statistical significances (Plt;0.05). The incidence of wound infection in fluid restriction group was lower than that in tradition therapy group (Plt;0.05). The differences of preoperative hemoglobin (Hb), white blood cell (WBC), glucose (GLU) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were not statistically significant between two groups, but the difference of postoperative GLU was statistically significant between two groups (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Restrictive fluid regimen can reduce the incidence of common complications after colorectal surgery for diabetic, and has a certain promoter action to the early rehabilitation after rectal surgery.

Methods Between October 2007 and December 2008, 120 patients underwent low/super-low rectal cancer resection without formation of stoma in the West China Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Postoperative early rehabilitations were compared between fast-track group and traditional group. Results In early rehabilitations, time of first passing flatus, ambulation, oral intake, and pulling out urinary catheter and the hospital stay in fast-track group were significantly earlier than those in traditional group （Plt;0.05）, while there was no significant difference in time of using nasogastric tubes or drains （Pgt;0.05）. There was also no significant difference in postoperative morbidity of complications between the 2 groups （Pgt;0.05）. Conclusion Fast-track surgery for low/super-low rectal cancer is safe and can accelerate recovery with decreased length of hospital stay.
Objective To explore the effect of restrictive fluid administration on elderly patients with colorectal cancer in fasttrack.Methods From January 2008 to January 2009, the elderly patients (≥60 years old) diagnosed definitely as colorectal cancer were analyzed retrospectively, the clinical effects on post-operative early rehabilitation were studied and the difference between restrictive fluid regimen and tradition fluid regimen was compared. Results The difference of overall incidence of post-operative complications was statistically significant between the two groups (Plt;0.05). The incidences of anastomotic leakage and pulmonary infection of fluid restriction group were lower than those of tradition therapy group (Plt;0.05). The time of vent to normal, defecation to normal and postoperative first eating of fluid restriction group was shorter than those of tradition therapy group, the difference was statistically significant (Plt;0.05). Comparing the biochemical indicators, the difference of preoperative GLU 〔（6.70±2.93） mmol/L vs. （6.33±3.95） mmol/L〕, BUN 〔(5.84±2.03) mmol/L vs. （7.32±10.83） mmol/L〕and CREA 〔(76.19±19.85) μmol/L vs. （85.36±38.02） μmol/L)〕 was statistically significant (Plt;0.05), but the difference of postoperative results had no statistical significance. Conclusion Restrictive fluid regimen can reduce the incidence of common complications after colorectal surgery for elderly patients, and have a certain promoter action to the early rehabilitation after rectal surgery.
ObjectiveTo explore the role of fast-track surgery (FTS) in day-case laparoscopic cholecystectomy (DLC) pain management. MethodsWe used bidirectional cohort study to investigate the patients undergoing day surgery of laparoscopic cholecystectomy admitted into our department. A total of 143 patients between April and September 2014 receiving routine pain management were chosen to be the control group, and 78 patients between October 2014 and January 2015 receiving FTS pain management were regarded as the FTS group. Postoperative pain, early ambulation, influence of pain on the sleep, patients' satisfaction and prolonged hospital stay rate were compared between the two groups. ResultsPain scores of patients in the FTS group 0-0.5, 0.5-6, 6-12, and 12-24 hours after surgery were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The proportion of patients with early postoperative ambulation and patients' satisfaction rate in the FTS group were significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionThe FTS pain management model can effectively reduce patients' pain after DLC, accelerate patients' postoperative rehabilitation and increase patients' satisfaction.
Objective To illustrate the situation of delayed discharge of patients after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) under fast-track (FT) recovery model, and analyze the reasons. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 152 patients who accepted perioperative management under fast-track model from January to December 2014. The reasons for discharging over 72 hours after hospitalization were analyzed. Results Among the 152 patients, 119 were discharged over 72 hours after surgery, and the rate was 78.2%. The main reasons for delayed discharge were pain (32.8%), limited range of motion (31.9%) and unwillingness to be discharged (27.7%), respectively. Conclusion For patients who have undergone TKA, FT model can shorten hospital stay, save expenses, and accelerate postoperative rehabilitation, but there is still much room for improvement.
Objective To compare the short-term outcomes between laparoscopic surgery and open surgery with fast-track (FT) in patients with colorectal cancer. Methods Between February 2008 and August 2008, the clinical data of 177 patients with colorectal cancer were analyzed retrospectively, who were divided into open group (n=122) and laparoscopic group (n=55) by surgery methods. Open group was further divided into FT group (n=66) and traditional group (n=56). Early rehabilitations were studied and compared among three groups. Results ① The baseline characteristics of patients among three groups were no significant differences (Pgt;0.05) exclude operation time. ② In early rehabilitation, the first flatus of patients in both the FT group 〔(3.86±1.01) d〕 and the laparoscopic group 〔(3.78±1.10) d〕 was significantly earlier than that in the traditional group 〔(4.43±1.25) d〕, Plt;0.05. ③ The first oral intaking in the FT group 〔(2.52±1.14) d〕 was earlier than that in the traditional group 〔(3.38±1.43) d〕 and the laparoscopic group 〔(5.04±2.24) d〕, Plt;0.05, while in the traditional group was earlier than that in the laparoscopic group (Plt;0.05). ④ For drainage management, both the FT group and the traditional group were significantly earlier than those in the laparoscopic group (Plt;0.05). ⑤ For postoperative hospital stay, in the FT group 〔(8.33±1.98) d〕 was also much shorter than that in the laparoscopic group 〔(10.55±3.14) d〕 and the traditional group 〔(10.82±3.76) d〕, Plt;0.05. ⑥ For the postoperative complications, there was no significant difference among three groups (Pgt;0.05). Conclusions FT surgery and laparoscopic technique could both enhance recovery of bowel function, and FT could also shorten postoperative hospital stay. However, further studies are needed to develop a better management.
Objective To investigate the impact of complete video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy and open lobectomy on perioperative heart rate （HR） and blood oxygen saturation （SO2） of lung cancer patients，and explore whether minimally invasive surgery can enhance postoperative recovery of lung cancer patients. Methods A total of 138 lung cancer patients were chosen from 161 consecutive patients with pulmonary diseases who were admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University between September 2010 and December 2011. According to different surgical approach，all the 138 lung cancer patients were divided into routine thoracotomy group （thoracotomy group，70 patients including 53 males and 17 females with their average age of 56.1±9.7 years） and complete video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy group （VATS group，68 patients including 46 males and 22 females with their average age of 53.4±6.5 years）. There was no statistical difference in preoperative clinical characteristics between the 2 groups. Preoperative and postoperative （1st，3rd，7th and 30th day） numeric pain rating scale （NPRS），HR and SO2 were compared between the 2 groups. Results （1） There was no statistical difference in NPRS on the 1st and 3rd postoperative day between the 2 groups （3.83±0.79 vs. 3.93±0.67， 2.88±0.59 vs. 3.03±0.71，P＞0.05），but on the 7th and 30th postoperative day，NPRS of the thoracotomy group was signi- ficantly higher than that of VAST group （1.61±0.33 vs. 1.22±0.12，1.58±0.26 vs. 1.19±0.31，P＜0.05）. （2） Postop- erative sedentary HR of both VATS group and thoracotomy group were significantly higher than preoperative levels ［（84.13±17.21） / minute vs. （73.67±10.32）/minute， （86.13 ±19.67） / minute vs. （72.24±14.21） / minute， P＜0.05］. Postoperative HR of VATS group decreased to preoperative level on the 3rd postoperative day，while postoperative HR of the thoracotomy group decreased to preoperative level on the 7th postoperative day. （3） There was no statistical difference between preoperative and postoperative （all the time points） sedentary SO2 of both VATS group and thoracotomy group （96.34 %±2.11% vs. 97.12%±2.31%，95.33%±4.13% vs. 94.93% ±4.31%，P＞0.05）.（4） The changes of HR and SO2 before and after exercise of VATS group were significantly smaller than those of the thoracotomy group on the 3rd postoperative day ［（11.11±4.81）/minute vs. （18.23±6.17）/minute，3.1%±1.2% vs. 7.4 %±2.7%，P＜0.05］ . Conclusion The impact of complete video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy on cardiopulmonary function is comparatively smaller，which is helpful for postoperative fast-track recovery of lung cancer patients.
