Clinical and patient-reported outcomes after oncoplastic versus conventional breast conserving surgery-a longitudinal, multicenter cohort study.

Background: Oncoplastic breast conserving surgery (OP-BCS) is becoming increasingly popular to avoid mastectomy or optimize cosmetic outcomes of breast conserving surgery (BCS). Few studies have compared clinical outcomes and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) of OP-BCS to conventional BCS (C-BCS). This study aims to compare clinical outcomes and short and long-term PROs after OP-BCS and C-BCS in a large prospective breast cancer cohort.

Morbidity after accelerated enhanced recovery protocol for colon cancer surgery.

Previous studies showed that accelerated enhanced recovery programs (ERPs) with discharge 1-3 days after colorectal surgery are feasible for specific patients without compromising patients' safety. This study aimed to examine the incidence, severity, and treatment of complications after treatment according to an accelerated ERP (CHASE). This accelerated ERP consisted of adjustments in pre-, peri- and postoperative care.

Hyperbaric bupivacaine versus prilocaine for spinal anesthesia combined with total intravenous anesthesia during oncological colon surgery in a 23-hour stay enhanced recovery protocol: A non-randomized study.

After the success of the enhanced recovery after surgery protocol, perioperative care has been further optimized in accelerated enhanced recovery pathways (ERPs), where optimal pain management is crucial. Spinal anesthesia was introduced as adjunct to general anesthesia to reduce postoperative pain and facilitate mobility. This study aimed to determine which spinal anesthetic agent provides best pain relief in accelerated ERP for colon carcinoma.

Views and experiences of healthcare professionals and patients on the implementation of a 23-hour accelerated enhanced recovery programme: a mixed-method study.

Background: An accumulating body of research suggests that an accelerating enhanced recovery after colon surgery protocol is beneficial for patients, however, to obtain these effects, adherence to all elements of the protocol is important. The implementation of complex interventions, such as the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocol (ERAS), and their strict adherence have proven to be difficult. The same challenges can be expected in the implementation of the accelerated Enhanced Recovery Pathways (ERPs).
