Promoting application of enhanced recovery after surgery protocols during perioperative localized abdominal and thoracic neuroblastomas
Topic overview
This retrospective study demonstrates that enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols significantly improve outcomes in children undergoing neuroblastoma resection, reducing postoperative hospital stay from 11 to 8 days and decreasing pain scores. ERAS implementation also improved early mobilization, nutritional recovery, and reduced healthcare costs without increasing complications.
Key takeaways
- ERAS protocols reduced postoperative length of stay from 11 to 8 days in pediatric neuroblastoma resection (P<0.001).
- Pain scores (FLACC) were significantly lower on postoperative days 1-5 with ERAS versus traditional care (all P<0.01).
- ERAS patients achieved earlier ambulation (1 vs 3 days), faster return to enteral nutrition (5 vs 7 days), both P<0.01.
- Lower CRP on POD1 and higher prealbumin on POD3 suggest reduced inflammation and better nutritional status with ERAS.
- ERAS reduced hospitalization costs by ~5,000 Yuan without increasing complications or 30-day readmission rates.
