ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background
Considerable evidence exists demonstrating that nursing care in fast-track surgery can bring a serial of benefits in patients undergoing surgery. Surgery is an initial treatment for glioma. Nursing care is essential for the postoperative recovery of patients with glioma. To what extent the patients with glioma can benefit from fast-track recovery technique deserves to be discussed.
Research motivation
To find evidence on the role of nursing care implemented in fast-track surgery in reducing length of hospital stay, time to function recovery, pain, bad emotions, and surgery associated complications in patients with glioma.
Research objectives
To report the efficacy of nursing care in fast-track surgery in patients with glioma.
Research methods
The study enrolled 138 patients who underwent surgery for glioma. They were categorized into an experimental group and a control group with 69 patients in each group. The experimental group was given nursing care in fast-track surgery including preoperative patient education, intraoperative patient-clinician-nurse cooperation, and postoperative nursing care and the control group was given conventional nursing after the surgery. Patient outcomes were compared between the two groups.
Research results
Nursing care in fast-track surgery shortened the time to excretion, time to out-of-bed activities, and length of hospital stay and relieved pain and psychological state at 3 d after the surgery. Moreover, it improved patient satisfaction.
Research conclusions
Benefits of the enhanced recovery programs were showed and it further improves quality of life in long term post-surgical periods in patients with glioma.
Research perspectives
In the future, studies should focus on the long-term functional recovery of patients undergoing surgery for glioma under fast-track recovery technique settings.
