NCT03189550

Brief Summary

Multimodal perioperative care pathways have evolved into enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). ERAS pathways improve the quality of patient care, reduce morbidity, and shorten length of stay. This project will test the hypothesis that implementation of a multi-modal ERAS perioperative care protocol in colorectal surgical patients will result in significantly reduced perioperative morbidity and mortality.

Study Arms (3)

Historical control

Patients who underwent colorectal surgery with standard perioperative care starting from June 2014 and progressing backward in time.

Procedure: Standard perioperative care

ERAS without SOC noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring

Patients who underwent colorectal surgery after implementation of standard of care (SOC) ERAS perioperative care from July 2014 to February 2015

Procedure: ERAS perioperative careProcedure: Standard perioperative care

ERAS with SOC noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring

Patients who underwent colorectal surgery after implementation of standard of care ERAS perioperative care with standard of care noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring (with the ClearSight System, Edwards Lifesciences) after February 2015

Procedure: ERAS perioperative careProcedure: Standard perioperative careProcedure: Noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring

Interventions

Standard of care implementation of multi-modal evidence-based care pathway, including standardized preoperative preparation (medical and diet), perioperative goal-directed fluid therapy, multi-modal perioperative pain management, postoperative nausea and vomiting prevention, surgical care and bowel isolation, and surgical site infection prevention
