| Abstract | ||
| BBack ground: Enhanced recovery programs (ERP) have been used to lower costs and improve surgical results, per contemporary clinical practice standards. However, the conventional methods of treating colorectal cancer, which are still based on the idea of protecting anastomosis and reducing postoperative problems, continue to resist them Objective: This study compared the effects of ERP and traditional perioperative care following open elective surgery for left colonic cancer. Methodology: 62 patients with left-side colon cancer were included in the current randomized controlled study and allocated into 2 equal groups at random: group (A) received standard perioperative care, and group (B) received ERP. A minimum of one month of follow-up was planned. Results: Patients of both groups did not exhibit statistically significant differences in terms of preoperative comorbidities. Group A's mean operative time was 171.9 ± 12.4 while group B's was 152.2 ± 17.1 (P = 0.038). Patients in group B reported significantly less discomfort than those in group A (P = 0.016*). With the exception of PONV , which were significantly lower in group B. Conclusion: When compared to standard care, ERP are safe, dependable, easy to use, and applicable in open left side cancer colon surgery with no detrimental effects on postoperative problems. . | ||
