NCT06103526

Brief Summary

A patient with oncological pathology of any type because of impaired digestion and nutrient absorption, decreased intake, and increased nutrition requirements has an increased risk of malnutrition and moderate to severe weight loss.In the present study the investigators will evaluate the impact of perioperative immunonutrition supplementation on the postoperative outcomes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Perioperative infections

    We will notice possible surgical site infections,respiratory inflammations etc and calculate inflammatory markers and the concentration of white blood cells

    Postoperatively (30 days)

  • Duration of hospitalization

    From date of hospitalization until the date of discharge or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 months.

    Until discharge from hospital

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Postoperative mobilization

    Until first day of mobilization

  • Postoperative morbidity (other than infectious)

    30 days

  • Recurrence rates

    3 years follow-up

  • Overall survival

    3 years follow-up

Study Arms (2)

Immunonutrition and ERAS

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Immunonutrition supplements will be provided to patients in the form of oral supplements given twice daily for 3 days pre-surgery and 3 days post-surgery.

Dietary Supplement: Immunonutrition

ERAS without immunonutrition

NO INTERVENTION

Typical ERAS protocol will be followed for patients in that group

Interventions

ImmunonutritionDIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

enteral supplementation with high amount of proteins, arginine, glutamine, nonessential fatty acids, branched chain fatty acids, nucleotides, or RNA

Immunonutrition and ERAS
