About this study

Official title: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Versus Conventional Approach in Peptic Perforation-A Randomized Control Trial

This study compares 2 different ways of perioperative management in patients of peptic perforation. Experimental arm is the ERAS arm( Enhanced recovery after surgery) and the comparative arm is Conventional arm.

Read the detailed description

While the conventional approach to perioperative management can potentially prolong the post operative hospital stay, ERAS(Enhanced recovery after surgery), a multi-modal and multispeciality approach to perioperative management may reduce the length of hospital stay. In the preoperative period, patients will be counselled regarding the operative procedure and particulars of the perioperative management.In the intra-operative period short acting general anesthetic agents and short acting muscle relaxants will be used.Intravenous fluid administration will be goal directed. After the operative procedure, bilateral rectus sheath block will be administered. Patient will also receive post-operative nausea and vomiting prophylaxis. Nasogastric tube will be removed immediately after the operative procedure. In the post operative period, patients will be encouraged to ambulate early. Enteral nutrition will be initiated as early as possible. Indwelling catheters will be removed in the early post-operative procedure.
