Effectiveness of ERAS on Postoperative Recovery After Minimally Invasive Gastrectomy 308 Randomized Open-Label

Recruiting
Clinical Trial NCT06984952 is an interventional study for Enhanced Recovery After Surgery, Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer that is recruiting. It started on 13 June 2025 with plans to enroll 308 participants. Led by Seoul National University Hospital, it is expected to complete by 31 March 2029. The latest data from ClinicalTrials.gov was last updated on 5 September 2025.
Brief Summary
This prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter study is designed to evaluate the impact of an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol on the rate of meeting discharge criteria in patients undergoing minimally-invasive gastrectomy for gastric cancer. We hypothesize that implementation of our ERAS protocol will significantly increase the proportion of patients who meet standardized discharge criteria fol...Show More
Detailed Description
Adult patients undergoing elective minimally invasive gastrectomy were randomly allocated to receive either the ERAS protocol (n = 154) or the conventional protocol (n = 154). The conventional group received the current standard perioperative care at our institution, whereas the ERAS group received a newly developed ERAS protocol, which included preoperative carbohydrate loading, reduced perioperative fasting duratio...Show More

ExperimentalERAS group
Perioperative care for minimally-invasive gastrectomy is managed according to ERAS protocol.
ERAS protocol
The ERAS protocol includes pre-admission patient education through audiovisual materials; reduction of perioperative fasting duration with preoperative carbohydrate loading and early postoperative oral intake; multimodal prophylaxis for postoperative nausea and vomiting; early removal of surgical drains and intravenous lines; early mobilization; and multimodal analgesia aimed at minimizing postoperative opioid use.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Proportion of patients who fulfilled all of the predefined discharge criteria
Discharge criteria were defined as meeting all of the following conditions: * Tolerance of a soft blended diet (SBD) for at least 24 hours * Unaided ambulation of at least 600 meters * Adequate pain control, defined as a numeric rating scale (NRS) score of ≤ 3, achieved with oral non-opioid analgesics * Absence of abnormal physical examination findings or laboratory test results
At 9:00 AM on postoperative day
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Postoperative pain score
11-pointed NRS pain score at resting/coughing NRS (0-10): 0,"no pain"; 10, "worst pain imaginable"
postoperative 2, 24, 48, and 72 hours
Postoperative gastrointestinal dysfunction
I-FEED score 3 points or more (postoperative gastrointestinal intolerance and dysfunction)
postoperative 24, 48, and 72 hours
Postoperative nausea and vomiting
Incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (%)
From the end of surgery to 24, 48, and 72 hours postoperatively
Quality of recovery assessed using the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire
EQ-5D-5L index scores are calculated from the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire using the Korean value set validated for the Korean population. (range: 0 to 1.000, with higher scores indicating better recovery) (Kim SH, Ahn J, Ock M, et al. The EQ-5D-5L valuation study in Korea. Qual Life Res. 2016; 25: 1845-1852)
postoperative 24, 48, and 72 hours
Major postoperative complication
Major postoperative complications are defined as events classified as Clavien-Dindo grade IIIa or higher and are assessed based on their incidence within 30 days after surgery.
At 30 days postoperatively
