Interventions

Others(Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) perioperative management) : Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) perioperative protocol for pancreaticoduodenectomy Target population/timeline: Patients
perioperative management from pre-admission to postoperative day (POD) 5. 1) Preoperative management (1) Fasting/Carbohydrate loading • ERAS group: Solid diet restricted after midnight
water allowed until 3 hours before surgery
1 can of carbohydrate drink administered orally (PO) 2–4 hours before surgery. • Control group: Nil per os (NPO) after midnight, including water
no carbohydrate drink provided. (2) Preemptive analgesia • ERAS group: Acetaminophen 650 mg (1 tablet) + Zaltoprofen 80 mg (1 tablet) administered orally (PO) 2–4 hours before surgery. • Control group
approximately 1 hour before the end of surgery, Acetaminophen 1 g IV + Ibuprofen 300 mg IV + Nefopam 20 mg IV administered. • Control group: Dexamethasone 5 mg IV at induction
approximately 1 hour before the end of surgery, Acetaminophen 1 g IV only. 3) Postoperative diet • Common starting point: Small amount of water or soft fluid diet (SOW) from the morning of POD1. • Pr
if POD4 percutaneous biliary-pancreatic (PBP) CT shows no abnormality, start soft bland diet (SBD) from POD4 lunch. o ERAS group: If abdominal erect X-ray on POD2 morning shows no abnormality, start S
if POD3 PBP CT shows
