Abstract

BackgroundThis study was performed to determine the feasibility of Day-case loop ileostomy reversal (DLIR) in China based on the community hospital joined enhanced recovery after surgery (CHJ-ERAS) program. MethodPatients who underwent loop ileostomy were enrolled in the CHJ-ERAS program for DLIR after rigorous evaluation. The primary outcome was the results of short-term follow-ups. ResultsFrom August 2017 to April 2022, 216 patients have been enrolled in the CHJ-ERAS program for DLIR. After DLIR, 14 patients (14/216, 6.5%) have recorded 17 episodes of postoperative complications within 1 month after surgery, including 10 readmission and 2 reoperation. Compared with in-patient loop ileostomy reversal, DLIR based on CHJ-ERAS did not increase the postoperative complications and reoperations. ConclusionThe CMJ-ERAS program for DLIR in our center is a safe and feasible alternative option for inpatient LIR and an acceptable transitional approach for the development of day-case DLIR in developing countries.
