Objective To investigate the application of fast track surgery (FTS) in hepatobiliary surgery, and discuss the postoperative stress response and its efficacy and safety assessment. Methods A total of 171 patients undergoing different hepatobiliary operations in our ward from August 2008 to Jule 2011 were randomly divided into control group (n=89) and FTS group (n=82). Patients in the FTS group received the improved methods while those in the control group received traditional care. A series of indicators such as hospital stay, hospital expense, duration of intravenous infusion, postoperative complications, and the C-reaction protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels in serum were observed postoperatively. Results For the FTS and control group, the first exhaust time was respectively (2.4±0.3) and (3.3±0.6) days, postoperative hospital stay was (9.1±2.7) and (14.1±4.1) days, hospitalization expense was (16 432±3 012) and (21 612±1 724) yuan, all of which had significant differences (P<0.05). Before surgery and on the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th day after surgery, IL-6 serum level for the FTS group was respectively (8.57±2.58), (30.21±12.44), (17.41±11.73), (11.14±7.12), and (10.50±5.19) ng/L, and for the control group was respectively (9.13±2.99), (51.31±19.50), (36.82±12.33), (28.23±9.18), and (15.44±4.33) ng/L. There was no significant difference in the preoperative IL-6 level between the two groups (P>0.05), while IL-6 level was significantly lower in the FTS group than the control group after surgery (P<0.05). Before surgery and on the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th day after surgery, CRP serum level for the FTS group was respectively (18.41±4.01), (69.74±26.03), (45.52±20.50), (39.14±11.23), and (29.03±6.47) μg/L, and for the control group was respectively (17.74±2.11), (99.23±23.50), (86.81±17.34), (68.22±15.60), and (37.70±9.55) μg/L. There was no significant difference in the preoperative CRP level between the two groups (P>0.05), while CRP level was significantly lower in the FTS group than the control group after surgery (P<0.05). Postoperative complication rate after surgery was not significantly different between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion The application of FTS in some hepatobiliary operations is effective and safe by decreasing the stress response.
