BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:501. [PMID: 38937718 PMCID: PMC11212174 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07606-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2023] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The relationship between delayed ambulation (DA) and postoperative adverse events (AEs) following transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) in elderly patients remains elusive. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effects of DA on the postoperative AEs including complications, readmission and prolonged length of hospital stay (LOS). METHODS This was a retrospective analysis of a prospectively established database of elderly patients (aged 65 years and older) who underwent TLIF surgery. The early ambulation (EA) group was defined as patients ambulated within 48 h after surgery, whereas the delayed ambulation (DA) group was patients ambulated at a minimum of 48 h postoperatively. The DA patients were 1:1 propensity-score matched to the EA patients based on age, gender and the number of fused segments. Univariate analysis was used to compare postoperative outcomes between the two groups, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors for adverse events and DA. RESULTS After excluding 125 patients for various reasons, 1025 patients (≤ 48 h: N = 659 and > 48 h: N = 366) were included in the final analysis. After propensity score matching, there were 326 matched patients in each group. There were no significant differences in the baseline data and the surgery-related variables between the two groups (p > 0.05). The patients in the DA group had a significant higher incidence of postoperative AEs (46.0% vs. 34.0%, p = 0.002) and longer LOS (p = 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression identified that age, operative time, diabetes, and DA were independently associated with postoperative AEs, whereas greater age, higher international normalized ratio, and intraoperative estimated blood loss were identified as independent risk factors for DA. CONCLUSIONS Delayed ambulation was an independent risk factor for postoperative AEs after TLIF in elderly patients. Older age, increased intraoperative blood loss and worse coagulation function were associated with delayed ambulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Elderly patients are less likely to recover from lumbar spine fusion (LSF) as rapidly compared with younger patients. However, there is still a lack of research on the effect of early ambulation on elderly patients undergoing LSF surgery for lumbar degenerative disorders. PURPOSE To evaluate the safety and benefit of ambulation within 24 hours in elderly patients who underwent LSF. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective study. PATIENT SAMPLE Consecutive patients (aged 65 and older) who underwent elective transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion surgery for degenerative disorders from January 2019 to October 2022. OUTCOME MEASURES Outcome measures included postoperative complications, postoperative drainage (mL), laboratory test data, length of hospital stay (LOS), readmission and reoperation within 3 months. METHODS Early ambulation patients (ambulation within 24 hours after surgery) were propensity-score matched 1:1 to a delayed ambulation patients (ambulation at a minimum of 48 hours postoperatively) based on age, intraoperative blood loss, and number of fused segments. The incidence of postoperative adverse events (AEs, including rates of complications, readmission, and prolonged LOS) and the average LOS were used to assess the safety and benefit of early ambulation, respectively. Multivariable regression analysis was performed to assess the association between early ambulation and postoperative AEs. The risk factors for delayed ambulation were also determined using multivariable logistic analyses. RESULTS A total of 998 patients with LSF surgery were reviewed in this study. After excluding 116 patients for various reasons, 882 patients (<24 hours: N=350, 24-48 hours: N=230, and >48 hours: N= 302) were included in the final analysis. After matching, sex, BMI, preoperative comorbidities, laboratory test data and surgery-related variables were comparable between the groups. The incidence of postoperative AEs was significantly lower in the EA group (44.3% vs 64.0%, p<.001). The average postoperative LOS of the EA group was 2 days shorter than the DA group (6.5 days vs 8.5 days, p<.001). Patients in the EA group had a significantly lower rate of prolonged LOS compared with the DA group (35.1% vs 55.3%, p<.001). There was no significant difference in postoperative drainage volumes between the two groups. Multivariable analysis identified older age (odds ratio [OR] 1.07, p<.001), increased intraoperative EBL (OR 1.002, p=.001), and higher international normalization ratio (OR 10.57, p=.032) as significant independent risk factors for delayed ambulation. CONCLUSIONS Ambulation within 24 hours after LSF surgery is independently associated fewer AEs and shorter hospital stays in elderly patients. Implementing the goal of ambulation within 24 hours after LSF surgery into enhanced recovery after surgery protocols for elderly patients seems appropriate. Older age, increased intraoperative blood loss and worse coagulation function are associated with delayed ambulation.

Abstract
Traditional use of opioids to treat postoperative pain may lead to abuse and overdose. The development of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols has helped to shift pain management from traditional methods to evidence-based best practices involving multimodal analgesia techniques. The purpose of this quality improvement project was to implement and determine the effectiveness of a standardized, evidence-based ERAS pain management pathway for patients undergoing colorectal or gynecology procedures at a medical center in Hawaii. After the intervention, the evaluation of data associated with opioid use, patients' pain scores, time spent in the postanesthesia care unit, and inpatient length of stay showed that most results were not significant. However, the ERAS pain management pathway did reduce clinical practice variations, intraoperative opioid administration, the time that patients spent in the postanesthesia care unit, and length of stay. The ERAS pain management pathway continues to be used and updated at this facility.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To systematically review and analyze the safety and effectiveness of ERAS in older patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, MEDLINE (Ovid), Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, and other databases to identify all randomized controlled studies and cohorts. We used the Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool and the Newcastle‒Ottawa Scale to assess the study quality. A meta-analysis was performed using the inverse variance weighting method. RESULTS This study included 15 studies involving a total of 2591 older patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries with 1480 in the ERAS group. The ERAS group had a lower incidence of postoperative complications than the control group (RR 0.52; 95% CI 0.42-0.65). Length of stay was 3.37 days lower in the ERAS group than in the control group (P < 0.01). And the ERAS protocol reduced the patient's postoperative VAS score (P < 0.01). Meanwhile, there was a lack of evidence of significant differences between the ERAS group and the control group in total bleeding and 30-day readmission rate. CONCLUSIONS The implementation of the ERAS program in older patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries is safe and effective. However, there is still a lack of standardization of protocols across institutions and centers for orthopedic surgery for older patients. Identifying ERAS components that are beneficial to older patients and developing ERAS protocols that are appropriate for older adults may further improve outcomes.

Development and validation of a novel nomogram to predict the risk of the prolonged postoperative length of stay for lumbar spinal stenosis patients. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2023; 24:703. [PMID: 37660009 PMCID: PMC10474765 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-023-06822-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 08/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lumber spinal stenosis (LSS) is the increasingly reason for spine surgery for elder patients since China is facing the fastest-growing aging population. The aim of this research was to create a model to predict the probabilities of requiring a prolonged postoperative length of stay (PLOS) for lumbar spinal stenosis patients, minimizing the healthcare burden. METHODS A total of 540 LSS patients were enrolled in this project. The outcome was a prolonged PLOS after spine surgery, defined as hospitalizations ≥ 75th percentile for PLOS, including the day of discharge. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) was used to identify independent risk variables related to prolonged PLOS. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was utilized to generate a prediction model utilizing the variables employed in the LASSO approach. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve's area under the curve (AUC) and the calibration curve's respective curves were used to further validate the model's calibration with predictability and discriminative capabilities. By using decision curve analysis, the resulting model's clinical effectiveness was assessed. RESULTS Among 540 individuals, 344 had PLOS that was within the usual range of P75 (8 days), according to the interquartile range of PLOS, and 196 had PLOS that was above the normal range of P75 (prolonged PLOS). Four variables were incorporated into the predictive model, named: transfusion, operation duration, blood loss and involved spine segments. A great difference in clinical scores can be found between the two groups (P < 0.001). In the development set, the model's AUC for predicting prolonged PLOS was 0.812 (95% CI: 0.768-0.859), while in the validation set, it was 0.830 (95% CI: 0.753-0.881). The calibration plots for the probability showed coherence between the expected probability and the actual probability both in the development set and validation set respectively. When intervention was chosen at the potential threshold of 2%, analysis of the decision curve revealed that the model was more clinically effective. CONCLUSIONS The individualized prediction nomogram incorporating five common clinical features for LSS patients undergoing surgery can be suitably used to smooth early identification and improve screening of patients at higher risk of prolonged PLOS and minimize health care.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the influencing factors of adherence to exercise prehabilitation in older patients with colorectal cancer. Methods Based on the capacity, opportunity, and motivation of behavior change (COM-B) model, 12 older colorectal tumors patients undergoing elective surgeries at a tertiary-care hospital in Shanghai between August 2022 and December 2022 were enrolled for the study through purposive sampling. The respondents were involved in semi-structured interviews. Directed content analysis of their data was conducted to extract themes. Results A total of 3 themes and 8 sub-themes were deduced from the analysis, including capacity (physical ability to tolerate exercise intensity and psychological experience of worrying about exercise risks), opportunity (adequate information support and professional guidance and simple and feasible exercise prescriptions and prehabilitation conditions), motivation (the intrinsic drive to identify with the prehabilitation values, the positive drive of inherent exercise habits, the continuous drive of exercise benefits, and the dual inspiration of team spirit and family support). These themes and subthemes were identified as influencing factors of adherence to exercise prehabilitation in older patients with colorectal cancer. Conclusion Prehabilitation in older patients with colorectal cancer is influenced by multiple factors. Healthcare professionals should enhance education, develop individualized prehabilitation programs, and improve the diversified social support system to enhance patients' adherence to prehabilitation exercise and maximize the benefits of prehabilitation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Fast-track is an evidence-based multidisciplinary strategy for pre-, intra-, and postoperative management of patients during major surgery. To date, fast-track has not been recognized or accepted in all surgical areas, particularly in orthopedic spine surgery where it still represents a relatively new paradigm. PURPOSE The aim of this review was provided an evidenced-based assessment of specific interventions, measurement, and associated outcomes linked to enhanced recovery pathways in spine surgery field. METHODS We conducted a systematic review in three databases from February 2012 to August 2022 to assess the pre-, intra-, and postoperative key elements and the clinical evidence of fast-track protocols as well as specific interventions and associated outcomes, in patients undergoing to spine surgery. RESULTS We included 57 full-text articles of which most were retrospective. Most common fast-track elements included patient's education, multimodal analgesia, thrombo- and antibiotic prophylaxis, tranexamic acid use, urinary catheter and drainage removal within 24 hours after surgery, and early mobilization and nutrition. All studies demonstrated that these interventions were able to reduce patients' length of stay (LOS) and opioid use. Comparative studies between fast-track and non-fast-track protocols also showed improved pain scores without increasing complication or readmission rates, thus improving patient's satisfaction and functional recovery. CONCLUSIONS According to the review results, fast-track seems to be a successful tool to reduce LOS, accelerate return of function, minimize postoperative pain, and save costs in spine surgery. However, current studies are mainly on degenerative spine diseases and largely restricted to retrospective studies with non-randomized data, thus multicenter randomized trials comparing fast-track outcomes and implementation are mandatory to confirm its benefit in spine surgery.

Abstract
Background There were exponentially increased studies focused on revealing the satisfactory outcomes after implementing enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in patients undergoing lumbar fusion surgery. However, little attention has been paid to the impact of chronologic age alone on perioperative outcomes. Methods In the present study, patients were dichotomized into two groups: young-old (65-79 years), and old-old (80 years and older). Given the heterogeneity and age-related comorbidities in this population and the need to compare similar groups, we performed propensity score matching for gender, body mass index (BMI), operation time, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), fusion levels and frail status. Perioperative outcomes were compared between two groups. Results In our study, we found there were significant discrepancies in length of stay (LOS) (7.17 ± 2.81 vs 8.11 ± 3.57 days, p = 0.031) and postoperative nausea and vomiting (3.7% vs 11.0%, p = 0.038); however, there were no significant differences in C-reactive protein (21.50 ± 26.52 vs 19.22 ± 22.04 mg/L, p = 0.490), overall complication rates (24.8% vs 33.0%, p = 0.179), ambulation time (2.89 ± 1.34 vs 2.55 ± 1.49 days, p = 0.078) or removal of urinary catheter time (2.47 ± 1.44 vs 2.32 ± 1.40 days, p = 0.446). Conclusion There were few differences in perioperative outcomes between young-old and old-old groups. Despite similar postoperative complication rates, the old-old group might experience longer LOS when complications occur. More importantly, current outcomes suggested that chronologic age alone does not appear to have the capacity to reflect the tolerance of elderly patients to surgery.

Key Components, Current Practice and Clinical Outcomes of ERAS Programs in Patients Undergoing Orthopedic Surgery: A Systematic Review. J Clin Med 2022; 11:4222. [PMID: 35887986 PMCID: PMC9322698 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11144222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2022] [Revised: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols have led to improvements in outcomes in several surgical fields, through multimodal optimization of patient pathways, reductions in complications, improved patient experiences and reductions in the length of stay. However, their use has not been uniformly recognized in all orthopedic fields, and there is still no consensus on the best implementation process. Here, we evaluated pre-, peri-, and post-operative key elements and clinical evidence of ERAS protocols, measurements, and associated outcomes in patients undergoing different orthopedic surgical procedures. A systematic literature search on PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science Core Collection databases was conducted to identify clinical studies, from 2012 to 2022. Out of the 1154 studies retrieved, 174 (25 on spine surgery, 4 on thorax surgery, 2 on elbow surgery and 143 on hip and/or knee surgery) were considered eligible for this review. Results showed that ERAS protocols improve the recovery from orthopedic surgery, decreasing the length of hospital stays (LOS) and the readmission rates. Comparative studies between ERAS and non-ERAS protocols also showed improvement in patient pain scores, satisfaction, and range of motion. Although ERAS protocols in orthopedic surgery are safe and effective, future studies focusing on specific ERAS elements, in particular for elbow, thorax and spine, are mandatory to optimize the protocols.

World Neurosurg 2022; 164:e397-e403. [PMID: 35513281 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2022.04.109] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2022] [Revised: 04/25/2022] [Accepted: 04/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) for spinal surgery is new; specifically, an ERAS program for elderly patients is lacking. Geriatric patients have special characteristics that result in further harm by surgical stress. ERAS interventions are designed to improve recovery after surgery and can result in substantial benefits in clinical outcomes and cost-effectiveness. We aimed to determine whether ERAS significantly improved satisfaction and outcomes in elderly patients with long-level lumbar fusion. METHODS Patients >70 years old with lumbar disc herniation or lumbar spinal stenosis who underwent lumbar fusion of ≥3 levels from July 2019 to June 2021 (ERAS group) and from January 2018 to June 2019 (non-ERAS group) were enrolled. Demographic, comorbidity, and surgical data were collected from electronic medical records. ERAS interventions were categorized as preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative. We also evaluated primary outcome, surgical complications, and length of stay (LOS). RESULTS The study included 154 patients, 72 in the ERAS group and 82 case-matched patients in the non-ERAS group. Overall, ERAS pathway compliance was 91%. There were no significant differences in readmission and mortality rates at 30-day follow-up between the ERAS and non-ERAS groups. Statistically significant decreases were observed in the ERAS group in complications (6 in ERAS group vs. 19 in non-ERAS group, P = 0.013) and LOS (17.74 ± 5.56 days in ERAS group vs. 22.13 ± 12.21 days in non-ERAS group, P = 0.041). Multivariable linear regression showed that implementation of ERAS (P = 0.002) was correlated with LOS. Multivariable logistic regression showed that implementation of ERAS (P = 0.004) was correlated with complications. CONCLUSIONS The ERAS protocol used in elderly patients after long-level lumbar fusion surgery was safe and associated with incremental benefits regarding complications and LOS.

Patients Older Than 75 Years Undergoing Polysegmental Lumbar Fusion Surgery Can also Benefit from Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Program. Clin Interv Aging 2022; 17:245-252. [PMID: 35283630 PMCID: PMC8909486 DOI: 10.2147/cia.s353511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2021] [Accepted: 02/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To compare pain scores (visual analog scale) on postoperative days 1–3 and length of stay after implementing enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in elderly patients undergoing multi-segments lumbar fusion surgery. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data, patients older than 75 years were enrolled in the study. We selected two periods, before (Pre-ERAS, n =54 patients) and after (ERAS, n =46 patients) implementation of ERAS. Data were collected on patient demographics, operative and perioperative details, 30-day readmission. The primary outcome was the length of stay (LOS), and the secondary outcomes were postoperative mean pain scores on postoperative days (POD) 1–3 and 30-day readmission rates. Results A total of 100 patients (46 in ERAS and 54 in pre-ERAS) were enrolled in this study. There were no significant differences in age, sex, body mass index (BMI), smoking and comorbidities between the groups. However, there was a significant difference in pain on postoperative day (POD) 1 (5.31 ± 1.98 vs 4.37 ± 0.85, p = 0.002), while there was no difference in postoperative complications. The mean LOS was significantly shorter in the ERAS than in the pre-ERAS group, it reduced from 12.29 ± 3.93 to 9.45 ± 2.72 days (p < 0.001). Conclusion To our knowledge, this is the first ERAS protocol used in patients (older than 75 years) undergoing polysegmental lumbar fusion surgery. Pain scores on POD 1 and LOS were significantly lower without increased adverse events after implementation of ERAS. This finding suggests that elderly people (>75 years of age) undergoing polysegmental lumbar fusion surgery could also benefit from ERAS.

Abstract
Background With increasing interest in enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS), the literature on ERAS in orthopedic surgery is also rapidly accumulating. This review article aims to (1) summarize the components of the ERAS protocol applied to orthopedic surgery, (2) evaluate the outcomes of ERAS in orthopedic surgery, and (3) suggest practical strategies to implement the ERAS protocol successfully. Main body Overall, 17 components constituting the highly recommended ERAS protocol in orthopedic surgery were identified. In the preadmission period, preadmission counseling and the optimization of medical conditions were identified. In the preoperative period, avoidance of prolonged fasting, multimodal analgesia, and prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting were identified. During the intraoperative period, anesthetic protocols, prevention of hypothermia, and fluid management, urinary catheterization, antimicrobial prophylaxis, blood conservation, local infiltration analgesia and local nerve block, and surgical factors were identified. In the postoperative period, early oral nutrition, thromboembolism prophylaxis, early mobilization, and discharge planning were identified. ERAS in orthopedic surgery reduced postoperative complications, hospital stay, and cost, and improved the patient outcomes and satisfaction with accelerated recovery. For successful implementation of the ERAS protocol, various strategies including the standardization of care system, multidisciplinary communication and collaboration, ERAS education, and continuous audit system are necessary. Conclusion The ERAS pathway enhanced patient recovery with a shortened length of stay, reduced postoperative complications, and improved patient outcomes and satisfaction. However, despite the significant progress in ERAS implementation in recent years, it has mainly focused on major surgeries such as arthroplasty. Therefore, further efforts to apply, audit, and optimize ERAS in various orthopedic surgeries are necessary.

The Potential Risk Factors for Prolonged Length of Stay Despite an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Protocol for Elderly Patients Undergoing Short-Level Lumbar Fusion Surgery. Geriatr Orthop Surg Rehabil 2022; 13:21514593221144179. [DOI: 10.1177/21514593221144179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2022] [Revised: 11/09/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To identify the risk factors associated with prolonged length of stay (LOS) despite an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol in short-level lumbar fusion surgery. Methods We gathered data for all patients undergoing short-level lumbar fusion surgery from January to November 2021. Given the discharge criteria, a threshold was set according to mean LOS, and two groups were spontaneously formed: LOS shorter than the threshold for discharge (control group, n = 114) and LOS longer or equal to the threshold for discharge (delayed group, n = 72). Preoperative metrics were compared to identify risk factors associated with prolonged LOS. Results A total consecutive 186 patients with complete medical records were enrolled (77 males and 109 females; mean age 71.08 ± 5.70 years). After dichotomization according to the threshold for discharge, there were 114 patients in control group and 72 in delayed group. Statistical analysis demonstrated that age ≥75 years ( P = .002), female sex ( P < .001), American Society of Anesthesiologists grade ≥ 3 ( P = .035), operation time ( P < .001), anesthesia time ( P < .001), ambulation time >1 day ( P = .027), removal of urinary catheter time >1 day ( P = .019), fusion levels ( P < .001), Clavien-Dindo grade > 1 ( P <.001) and allogeneic transfusion ( P = .009) were significantly related to prolonged LOS. Binary logistic regression revealed that age (odds ratio (OR) 5.149; 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.045-12.966, P = .001), sex (OR 5.185, 95% CI 2.183-12.317, P < .001) and Clavien-Dindo grade > 1(OR 15.936, 95% CI 5.220-48.652, P < .001) were independent risk factors of prolonged LOS. Conclusions In this retrospective study, we analyzed the potential risk factors associated with delayed LOS despite implementing ERAS, further, binary logistic regression exhibited that age ≥75 years old, female sex and Clavien-Dindo grade >1 were independently correlated with prolonged LOS.

World Neurosurg 2021; 159:e303-e310. [PMID: 34929368 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2021.12.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2021] [Accepted: 12/13/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is a multimodal, evidence-based approach to perioperative care that aims to reduce physiological and psychological stress, improve the quality of rehabilitation and speed up the recovery of patients. Our study aims to investigate the benefits of perioperative use of ERAS for short-segment posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF). METHODS We selected two 1-year periods: the first from before the establishment of the multidisciplinary ERAS team in January 2017 (pre-ERAS year 2016) and the second period when ERAS was applied widely in our hospital (ERAS year 2019). Data were collected from the electronic medical records of patients who had undergone short-level PLIF during these 2 periods. The primary outcomes were postoperative complications, length of hospital stay (LOS) and off-bed time. RESULTS A total of 207 patients were included; 95 patients in the pre-ERAS group were compared with 112 patients in the ERAS group. There was no significant difference between the two groups in baseline demographic. Patients in the ERAS group had significantly shorter LOS, bed-off time and earlier drainage tube and catheter removal time. The rate of postoperative complications differed significantly between the pre-ERAS and ERAS groups. Patients in the ERAS group had significantly less intraoperative blood loss, financial cost and opioid consumption than patients in the pre-ERAS group. The VAS and ODI scores, similar at baseline, were significantly lower in the ERAS group at postoperative day 3 (POD 3). CONCLUSIONS The benefits of our ERAS protocol for patients undergoing short-level posterior lumbar fusion are evident in terms of reduced hospital stay and time to get out of bed, reduced incidence of postoperative complications, intraoperative blood loss, opioid use and hospital costs, and improved early postoperative pain and dysfunction.
