Brief summary

This study is aimed to evaluate the safety of applying enhanced recovery after surgery for gastric cancer.

Detailed description

In China, gastric cancer results in the second highest morbidity and mortality rates among all malignancies. It is very important for treatment of gastric cancer to enhance the quality of treatment, increase patients' survival rate and improve the life quality. Now, Gastric Cancer, Version 3.2016, NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology and Japanese gastric cancer treatment guidelines 2014 (ver. 4) recommended surgical resection for gastric cancer. As a result, increasing the quality of surgery and improving the perioperative measures have a great influence on patients received a gastrectomy. Before, patients discharged on 7-10 days after gastrectomy and recovered 4-8 weeks after surgery. So, it is significant for patients to recover from surgical trauma in order to receive other anti-cancer therapies after gastrectomy. Investigators spent over ten years studying enhanced recovery after surgery programs for gastric cancer and have got some successful experience. Investigators found enhanced recovery after surgery can accelerate patients' recovery without increasing complications. This study is the first multi-center study of enhanced recovery after surgery for gastric cancer all over the world. During this period, the study is aimed to evaluate the safety of applying enhanced recovery after surgery for gastric cancer.
