Objective  To describe the situation of postoperative pain management in colorectal cancer patient in enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) mode, and explore its influenceing factors. Methods  From March to December 2017, colorectal cancer patients in ERAS mode in Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, West China Hospital of Sichuan University were selected. On the third day after surgery, a total of 74 patients with acute pain completed a questionnaire, which was composed of a demographic form, the Houston Pain Outcome Instrument (HPOI), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale, and Social Support Rating Scale. Mean±standard deviation and percentage were used to describe the total score of pain experience, t test, analysis of variance, Spearman correlation analysis were used for single-factor analysis, and multiple linear regression was used for multi-factor analysis. Results  The mean total score of pain experience was 15.1±3.8. Single-factor analysis results showed that the affection of pain on daily life (rs=0.270, P=0.020), satisfaction of pain controlling education (rs=–0.283, P=0.015), subjective support (rs=–0.326, P=0.005), and social support utilization (rs=–0.253, P=0.029) were correlated with the total score of pain experience. Multi-factor analysis results showed that satisfaction of pain controlling education (P<0.001) and subjective support (P=0.005) were negative influencing factors of postoperative pain experience score, and severe anxiety (P=0.001) and pain expectation after surgery (P=0.016) were positive influencing factors of postoperative pain experience score. Conclusions  Pain management situation is not so bad in these patients. High satisfaction of pain controlling education and high subjective social support are helpful to decrease pain. The medical staff should pay more attention to patients with severe anxiety, and help patients to establish reasonable pain expectation after surgery.
