Objective To systematically review the efficacy of clinical nursing pathway (CNP) in patients with esophageal cancer surgery. Methods Databases including PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CBM, WanFang Data and CNKI were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving the comparison of CNP with routine nursing pathway in patients with esophageal caner surgery. The retrieval time was from inception to October 2014. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then data was analyzed by RevMan 5.2 software. Results A total of 16 RCTs involving 1 457 patients were included. The results of meta-analyses showed that:compared with the routine nursing pathway, the CNP could increase patients' nursing satisfaction (OR=8.08, 95%CI 5.12 to 12.74, P<0.000 01), the achievement rate of knowledge (OR=4.13, 95%CI 2.44 to 6.98, P<0.000 01) and decrease the incidence of postoperative complications (OR=0.21, 95%CI 0.13 to 0.33, P<0.000 01), the length of hospitalization (MD=-4.57, 95%CI -5.57 to -3.56, P<0.000 01). Conclusion The clinical nursing pathway can improve patients' nursing satisfaction, the achievement rate of knowledge, it can also reduce the incidence of postoperative complications and the length of hospitalization.
