[Effect of optimized preoperative dietary management in patients with consecutive operation of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy at night].

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the effect of optimized preoperative dietary management on enhanced recovery in patient with consecutive operation of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy(RARP) at night. Methods: Forty patients undergoing consecutive operation of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy at night in the department of urology in our hospital from Jun 2018 to March 2019 were divided into two groups, 23 patients in the study group and 17 patients in the control group. The control group followed the traditional fasting program at 24∶00 p.m. the day before the surgery. In the study group, the preoperative fasting procedure was optimized. The fasting time, water deprivation time, intravenous infusion volume, scores of hunger and thirst, blood glucose level, length of postoperative hospital stay and adverse reactions were compared between two groups. The level of hunger and thirst were evaluated using the Likert score. Results: The preoperative fasting time and water deprivation time of the study group and the control group were (11.9±4.4 vs 19.3±4.8) h and (6.0±2.9 vs 19.3±4.8) h, respectively (P<0.01). The infusion volume of study group was (406.5±310.5) ml and that of control group (744.1±443.0) ml, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). The hunger and thirst scores of the study group were lower than those of the control group before surgery, and the postoperative hospital stay was shorter than the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: The optimized preoperative dietary management shortens fasting and water deprivation time, reduces the intravenous infusion volume, relieves the hungry and thirsty in patients with consecutive operation of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy at night.
