[Application of enhanced recovery after surgery in laryngeal cancer surgery with multi-disciplinary team].

Objective: To explore the application value of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) with the multidisciplinary team (MDT) model in laryngeal cancer surgery. Methods: Eighty patients with laryngeal cancer treated in Department of Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery of Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital from May 2016 to June 2017 were selected, including 76 males and 4 females, aged 45 to 75 years old. By random number table method, they were divided into ERAS group (40 cases) and control group (40 cases). Visual analogue scale (VAS), general comfort questionnaire (GCQ) and self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) were used to evaluate the symptoms and signs and psychological state of the two groups before and after operation. Mann Whitney U test was used for non-normal distribution data, and chi square test, Fisher exact probability method and covariance analysis were used for classification data. Repeated measures analysis of variance was used for the comparison of each group at different time points. Results: Two cases in the ERAS group and six cases in the control group withdrew from the study for some reason. Finally, 38 cases in the ERAS group and 34 cases in the control group were enrolled in this study. The postoperative pain scores of the two groups were the highest at 6 h after operation, and then gradually decreased. At different time points after operation, the pain scores of ERAS group were lower than those of the control group. At 24 h after operation, the pain relief degree of ERAS group was significantly higher than that of the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P 0.05). Before discharge, the comfort of ERAS group was significantly higher than that of control group [(60.37±8.78) vs. (50.38±8.08), Z=-4.370, P<0.001]. Before discharge, the anxiety level of ERAS group decreased, while that of the control group increased significantly, which was higher than that of ERAS Group [(59.12±6.43) vs. (52.62±6.25), Z=-4.179, P<0.001]. Conclusion: The application of multidisciplinary ERAS in laryngeal cancer surgery can improve preoperative hunger and thirst, postoperative pain and mental state, shorten the length of hospital stay and reduce postoperative adverse reactions.
