The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program aims to attenuate the surgical stress response and decrease postoperative complications. It has increasingly replaced conventional approaches in surgical care. To evaluate the benefits and harms of the ERAS program compared to conventional care in patients undergoing liver surgery. We searched the MEDLINE, PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane databases. All RCTs that compared the ERAS program with conventional care were selected. Four RCTs were eligible for analysis, which included 634 patients (309 ERAS vs. 325 conventional). Overall morbidity (RR 0.67; 95 % CI 0.48-0.92; p = 0.01), primary length of stay (WMD -2.71; 95 % CI -3.43 to -1.99; p < 0.00001), total length of stay (WMD -2.10; 95 % CI -3.96 to -0.24; p = 0.03), time of functional recovery (WMD -2.30; 95 % CI -3.77 to -0.83; p = 0.002), and time to first flatus (SMD, -0.52; 95 % CI -0.69 to -0.35; p < 0.00001) were significantly shortened in the ERAS group.

BACKGROUND: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs aim to improve postoperative outcomes. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the impact of ERAS programmes on outcomes following liver surgeries. METHODS: EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed and the Cochrane Database were searched for studies comparing outcomes in patients undergoing liver surgery utilizing ERAS principles with those patients receiving conventional care. The primary outcome was the occurrence of 30-day morbidity and mortality. Secondary outcomes included length of stay, functional recovery, readmission rates, time to pass flatus, blood loss and hospital costs. RESULTS: Ten articles were included in the meta-analysis. 30 days morbidity and mortality were significantly less in the ERAS group. Hospital stay, time to pass flatus, time to complete recovery and hospital costs were also significantly reduced due to ERAS protocols. Blood loss and readmission rates were also significantly less in the ERAS group. CONCLUSIONS: The adoption of ERAS protocols significantly reduced morbidity, mortality hospital stay, readmission rates, time to recovery, hospital costs, time to pass flatus, blood loss and readmission rates.

The primary outcome was occurrence of 30 day morbidity and mortality. Secondary outcomes included length of stay , functional recovery ,readmission rates,time to pass flatus,blood loss and hospital costs. RESULTS: Ten articles were included in the metaanalysis. Overall 30 days mortality rates were 0.65% in ERAS group while 0.97% in standard group (p=0.997). 30 days morbidity rates were not different in ERAS group compared to conventional care patients. (20.2 % in ERAS vs. 25 % in non ERAS). (p=0.329).Hospital stay, time to pass flatus, time to complete recovery and hospi...

s Background Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols are evidence-based, multimodal and patient-centred approach to optimize patient care and experience during their perioperative pathway. It has been shown to be effective in reducing length of hospital stay and improving clinical outcomes. However, evidence on its effective in liver surgery remains weak. The aim of this review is to investigate clinical benefits, cost-effectiveness and compliance to ERAS protocols in liver surgery. Methods A systematic literature search was conducted using CINAHL Plus, EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed and Cochrane for randomized control trials (RCTs) and cohort studies published between 2008 and 2019, comparing effect of ERAS protocols and standard care on hospital cost, LOS, complications, readmission, mortality and compliance. Results The search resulted in 6 RCTs and 21 cohort studies of 3739 patients (1777 in ERAS and 1962 in standard care group). LOS was reduced by 2.22 days in ERAS group (MD ...

Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate the added value of an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programme in laparoscopic liver resections for solid tumours. Methods: Patients undergoing laparoscopic liver resection between July 2005 and July 2008 were included. Indications for resections included presumed benign and malignant liver lesions. Primary outcome was total length of hospital stay (LOS). Secondary outcomes were functional recovery, complications, conversions, blood loss and duration of operation. Results: Thirteen patients were treated by laparoscopic liver resections in the ERAS programme in one centre (group 1). Their outcomes were compared with outcomes of 13 laparoscopic procedures performed either before the introduction of the ERAS programme during 2003-2005 in the same centre or during the same period in other centres using traditional care (group 2). Median total LOS was 5.0 days (range 3-10 days) in group 1 and 7.0 days (3-12 days) in group 2. This difference was not statistically significant. Functional recovery occurred 2 days earlier in group 1 (median 3.0 days [range 1-7 days] vs. median 5.0 days [range 2-8 days]; P < 0.044). There were no significant differences in complications, conversions or duration of operation. Blood loss was significantly less in the ERAS group (median 50 ml [range 50-200 ml] vs. median 250 ml [range 50-800 ml]; P < 0.002).
The Safety and Efficacy of Approaches to Liver Resection: A Meta-Analysis
JSLS : Journal of the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons / Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons
The aim of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of conventional laparotomy with those of robotic and laparoscopic approaches to hepatectomy. Independent reviewers conducted a systematic review of publications in PubMed and Embase, with searches limited to comparative articles of laparoscopic hepatectomy with either conventional or robotic liver approaches. Outcomes included total operative time, estimated blood loss, length of hospitalization, resection margins, postoperative complications, perioperative mortality rates, and cost measures. Outcome comparisons were calculated using random-effects models to pool estimates of mean net differences or of the relative risk between group outcomes. Forty-nine articles, representing 3702 patients, comprise this analysis: 1901 (51.35%) underwent a laparoscopic approach, 1741 (47.03%) underwent an open approach, and 60 (1.62%) underwent a robotic approach. There was no difference in total operative times, surgical margins, or perio...
A Pilot Study of Enhance Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) for Liver Resection
2017
Background: Morbidity post hepatectomy still remain persistent throughout decades compared to other surgery. Modern approach have been introduced to improve safety and reduce morbidity whilst at the same time enhance patient recovery. Thus, enhanced recovery after surgery or fast track recovery program for liver resection was initiated. Objective: The aim of this study was to achieve discharge by postoperative day 3 for minor resection and day 5 for major resection. Design and Setting: This is a prospective study conducted in Hospital Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (HUKM) from September 2014 till April 2015. Material and Methods: All patients undergoing open liver resection were included in the study. They were then managed post operatively according to ERAS protocol that was drawn up based on previous studies. Patient's demographics data, intra operative parameters, postoperative complications and adherence to postoperative recovery protocol were recorded. Results: Seventeen pa...

Aim of the study: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to analyse post-operative morbidity after liver resection, and also study various factors associated with mortality via metaregression analysis.Material and Methods: PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, google scholar, web of science with keywords like ‘liver resection”; ”mortality”;” hepatectomy”. Weighted percentage post-operative morbidities were analysed. Meta-analysis and meta-regression were done by the DerSimonian-Liard random effect model. Heterogeneity was assessed using the Higgins I2 test. Publication bias was assessed using a funnel plot. Funnel plot asymmetry was evaluated by Egger’s test. Morbidity was defined as any postoperative morbidity mentioned.Results: A total of 46 studies was included in the final analysis. Total 45771 patients underwent liver resections. 16111 patients experienced complications during the postoperative period. Weighted post-operative morbidity was 30.2% ( 95 % C.I. 24.8-35.7%). Het...
