Article Synopsis
- - The study compares the effectiveness of two methods of postoperative oral feeding—on-demand versus predetermined timing—in patients who had elective cholecystectomy surgeries under general anesthesia.
- - A total of 120 patients were divided into two groups; one received coconut water upon request (On-Demand group), while the other received it at a set time (Predetermined-Time group).
- - Results showed similar rates of postoperative nausea and vomiting in both groups, but patient satisfaction was significantly higher in the On-Demand group, suggesting that allowing patients to choose when they eat enhances their recovery experience.
There is established evidence on the role of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols in elective surgeries but its effectiveness in emergency surgeries has been nominally studied. We aimed at studying the feasibility and effectiveness of ERAS protocols in patients undergoing emergency abdominal surgery for intestinal perforation and small bowel obstruction and compare their surgical outcomes with conventional care. This prospective randomized study was performed for a period of 16 months.

The present study was conducted with an aim to assess the acute postoperative pain experiences, its interference with ADLs, emotions, sleep, IPR and satisfaction with pain management among patients who had undergone elective surgeries.
Methods: In this observational study, 200 postoperative adult patients; who had undergone elective surgery were interviewed using American Pain Society's Patient Outcome and Satisfaction Survey Questionnaire.
