What this trial studies

This study evaluates the impact of an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) nursing program on self-reported outcomes for patients undergoing minimally invasive lung cancer surgery. It compares the length of hospital stay, complications, and readmission rates between patients receiving ERAS nursing care and those receiving standard nursing care. The goal is to determine if ERAS nursing can improve recovery metrics for these patients.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older who are scheduled for minimally invasive elective lung cancer surgery.

Not a fit: Patients who undergo pneumonectomy that is converted to open surgery or those unable to cooperate due to language barriers or psychological conditions may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved recovery experiences and outcomes for patients undergoing lung cancer surgery.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown positive outcomes with ERAS protocols in various surgical settings, suggesting potential success for this approach.
