Brief Summary: This study aims to compare the new preoperative oral rehydration protocol (administering 50-100 mL of clear fluids or carbohydrate-rich beverages orally every hour until the patient arrives at the operating room) with the traditional preoperative protocol (consuming 200-300 mL of water orally two hours prior to surgery). The objective is to investigate the effects of these two protocols on the safety (e.g., risk of reflux and aspiration), comfort (e.g., levels of hunger, thirst, and anxiety), gastric emptying status (as assessed by gastric ultrasound indicators), and postoperative outcomes (e.g., incidence of postoperative delirium, insulin resistance, and inflammatory factor levels) in elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung cancer radical surgery. This research seeks to identify a more appropriate preoperative rehydration protocol for elderly lung cancer patients.
Detailed Description: This study employed a randomized controlled double-blind trial, including 420 elderly patients (aged 65 and above) who were scheduled to undergo thoracoscopic lung cancer radical surgery. The efficacy of three preoperative oral rehydration regimens was compared. The control group orally consumed 200-300ml of clear water 2 hours before the operation; the intervention group 1 orally consumed 50-100ml of clear water every hour before the operation; the intervention group 2 orally consumed 50-100ml of 12.5% carbohydrate beverages every hour before the operation, all requiring to be consumed slowly within 10-15 minutes. The evaluation indicators included: safety (intraoperative reflux aspiration, postoperative nausea and vomiting, incision and pulmonary infection rates), gastric ultrasound (amount of fluid in the stomach and emptying time), comfort (VAS for assessing hunger and thirst, SAS for assessing anxiety), postoperative delirium (CAM scale combined with electroencephalogram), insulin resistance (FPG, FINS, and HOMA-IR), and inflammatory factors (Interleukin-6, Tumor necrosis factor -α, C-reactive protein). The research data were analyzed using SPSS software to clarify the impact of different rehydration regimens on elderly patients.
