Brief summary

The objective of the study is to assess retrospectively the effect of an awareness-raising phase in favour of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery across the Assistance Publique-Hopitaux Paris institution and to explore the determinants of compliance with modalities of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery. This multicenter study is performed for three types of surgery: total knee arthroplasty, left colectomy and hysterectomy.

Detailed description

The primary goal of the study is to quantify the effect of an awareness-raising phase in favour of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery which was organized in 2016 within the public hospitals in Paris (Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris). The study aims to document and compare the compliance with fast track modalities and its impact for the year before (2015) and the year following (2017) the awareness-raising phase. Durations of hospital stay, compliance with recommendations, benefits on lowering complication rates and cost reductions will be studied for three types of interventions: total knee arthroplasty, left colectomy and hysterectomy. Preoperative information provided to patients, counselling and physical optimisation will be evaluated through a survey among physicians whereas compliance with pre-, intra- and postoperative patient management guidelines will be retrospectively retrieved from the medical records of randomly selected patients. Survival and hospital trajectories will be obtained through the centralised national medical data system. Three groups of patients having underwent total hip prosthesis, ovariectomy or gastrectomy in the same years (2015 and 2017) will serve as control groups, as for these surgeries no specific program has been implemented toward any practice change.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Duration of hospital staythrough study completion, an average of 1 yearThe average duration of hospital stay will be compared for the year before (2015) and following (2017) the awareness-raising program implemented in 2016 for patients with knee arthroplasty, hysterectomy or left colectomy.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Compliance with modalities of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery programthrough study completion, an average of 1 yearModalities of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery recommendations will be compared between the year before (2015) and the year following (2017) the awareness-raising program implemented in 2016.
Number of surgery related complicationsthrough study completion, an average of 1 yearBenefits on lowering complications rates
Costs per patientthrough study completion, an average of 1 yearTo determine if the awareness-raising program implemented in 2016 has produced a significant cost per patient reduction. The total cost for hospitalization, readmission and surgery related complications will be assessed.
