The Application of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) for Cardiovascular Surgery in Adult: a Stepped Wedge Cluster Randomized Trial

Among adults, patients undergoing elective extracorporeal circulation for cardiac surgery are included in the ERAS strategy intervention plan, which mainly includes preoperative education, preoperative oral intake of multidimensional carbohydrate beverages, multimodal analgesia, blood protection strategies, correction of perioperative hypoalbuminemia, early removal of tracheal intubation, maintenance of blood sugar at reasonable levels, and targeted liquid therapy. The traditional plan group follows the current clinical diagnosis and treatment routine. By comparing the differences in the incidence of major postoperative outcomes (MACCE events, major pulmonary complications, and acute kidney injury) between the intervention group and the non intervention group, as well as comparing other adverse events (including but not limited to pneumonia, massive bleeding, postoperative arrhythmia, incision infection, postoperative nausea, vomiting, and delirium), all cause secondary intubation, and all cause secondary surgery between the two groups, and recording hospitalization time, ICU stay time The removal time of tracheal intubation and drainage tube, as well as the pain score during hospitalization and the total amount of opioid drug use (converted to equivalent dose morphine), hospitalization cost, postoperative recovery quality QoR15 scale score, and patient satisfaction score, were recorded to explore whether the ERAS regimen can reduce the incidence of major postoperative adverse events, improve patient prognosis, and accelerate postoperative recovery compared to traditional regimens.
