Trial summary

Small bowel obstruction surgery is frequent and would benefit from enhanced recovery programs. While some studies advocate for their feasibility, it has never been proved and prospective studies are required to confirm the feasibility of such program and the impact on postoperative outcomes.

About this study

Official title: Feasability and Impact of Enhanced Recovery Programs After Surgery for Small Bowel Obstruction

Small bowel obstruction surgery is frequent and would benefit from enhanced recovery programs. While some studies advocate for their feasibility, it has never been proved and prospective studies are required to confirm the feasibility of such program and the impact on postoperative outcomes.

Being tested
Enhanced recovery program

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Enhanced recovery programProcedure or surgery

    12 items of program (preoperative, peroperative postoperative) according to the enhanced recovery after surgery society

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. occurence rate of postoperative ileus

    Measured: within 30 postoperative days

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Feasibility of the enhanced recovery program after small bowel obstruction surgery

    The feasibility of the enhanced recovery program will be assessed by using the ratio: number of items of the programs followed/ number of items in the programs

    Measured: within 30 postoperative days

  2. Postoperative morbidity

    Measured: within 30 postoperative days

  3. length of stay

    Measured: the day of discharge assessed up to 30 days

  4. Rate of nasogastric tube replacement

    Measured: within 30 postoperative days

  5. Rate of tolerance to solid food

    Measured: within 30 postoperative days

  6. Time to GI function recovery

    Measured: within 30 postoperative days

  7. acceptability toward the enhanced recovery program

    The acceptability will be assessed through 2 qualitative questions and a 1-10 satisfaction scale

    Measured: the day of discharge up to 30 days
