Core Tip

Core Tip: Surgery is the most common initial treatment for gliomas. How to reduce patients’ surgical stress response, optimize organ function, and facilitate their recovery is an important question. Nursing care in fast-track surgery may help to solve the problem. The present study reported the benefits of nursing care in fast-track surgery in patients with glioma. It was found that this kind of service shortened the time to excretion, time to out-of-bed activities, and length of hospital stay, relieved pain, lessened unhealthy emotions, and improved patient satisfaction.
