Conditions

ESWL, Fasting, Pancreatic Duct Stone

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of eating 6 hours after Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL). At present, ESWL and Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) are the routine ways to treat pancreatic duct stones. For large stones (diameter \> 5mm) , ESWL often needs to be performed many times. In clinical practice, fasting for 24 hours after surgery is often used, but long-term fasting brings strong discomfort to patients. However, the consensus for initiation timing of oral nutrition has not yet been established after ESWL. Thus, we design this trial to evaluate the safety of early feeding based on 6 hours parameter instead of the consensus definition.

Detailed description

In recent years, studies have shown that early recovery of enteral nutrition has significant benefits for patients. Early recovery of oral feeding and drinking as well as early oral supplementary nutrition after surgery can promote the recovery of intestinal motor function, help maintain intestinal mucosal function, prevent postoperative flora disorder and diarrhea, shorten postoperative hospital stay, and improve postoperative anxiety of patients.This study mainly evaluated the safety of feeding 6 hours after ESWL, including the risk of post-ESWL pancreatitis and other adverse events, as well as the length of hospital stay, medical expenses, pain, etc. This research conclusion is helpful to provide more scientific and reasonable fasting time for patients after ESWL, improve patient comfort, reduce the risk of adverse events, shorten hospital stay, save medical expenses, and guide clinical practice.

Interventions

Patients in the early diet group started oral intake 6 hours after ESWL of the day of procedure with a soft diet comprised 200 mL with 170 kilocalories.

PROCEDUREStandard fasting group

Patients in the standard fasting group were fasted for 24 hours after the first ESWL operation, and close observation during this fasting period.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
the incidence of post-ESWL pancreatitiswithin 24 hours after ESWLA diagnosis of post-ESWL pancreatitis was thus made if two of three of the following criteria were met, in accordance with the revised Atlanta international consensus: pain consistent with pancreatitis; amylase or lipase of at least three times the upper normal limit within 24 h of the procedure; or characteristic findings on imaging.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
the severity of post-ESWL pancreatitiswithin 24 hours after ESWLstratified as mild, moderate, or severe, mainly on the basis of length of hospitalisation and need for invasive treatment
the incidence of other post-ESWL complicationswithin 24 hours after ESWLOther post ESWL complications includes bleeding, infection, steinstrasse, and perforation.
the transient adverse eventswithin 24 hours after ESWLTransient adverse events were defined as transient injuries caused by shock waves that required no medical intervention and did not prolong hospitalisation, including asymptomatic hyperamylasaemia, haematuria, and acute gastrointestinal mucosal injury (eg, haematemesis, melena, or haematochezia) caused by ESWL.
abdominal pain relief ratewithin 24 hours after ESWLUse the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). VAS can be calculated ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (severe pain).
hunger relief ratewithin 24 hours after ESWLUse the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). VAS can be calculated ranging from 0 (not hungry at all) to 10 (hungriest possible).
