Outcome of Perioperative Immune Enhancing Nutrition in Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcome of perioperative immune-nutrition with glutamine, arginine and fish oil in patients undergoing radical cystectomy as regards to enhancement of healing, increasing immunity and improving overall health status.

No Intervention: conventional protocol group patients who are enrolled in conventional pre and post operative routine preparation for surgery protocol. |
|
Active Comparator: immune enhancing nutrition protocol group patients who are enrolled in immune enhancing nutrition protocol pre and post operatively. |
Dietary Supplement: Neo-mune powder (otsuka pharmaceutical)
Preoperative: Neo-mune (otsuka pharmaceutical) powder 60 gm o.d. orally (contains glutamine, arginine and fish oil) for 3 days.
Postoperative: Neo-mune (otsuka pharmaceutical) powder 60 gm o.d. orally (contains glutamine, arginine and fish oil) for 2 weeks starting when the intestinal sounds are audible.
Drug: Dipeptiven solution (Fresenius Kabi pharmaceutical)
Dipeptiven (Fresenius Kabi pharmaceutical) solution 50 mg o.d IV ( contains L-ananyl-L-glutamine dipeptide) post operatively for 2 weeks starting from the operation day.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Postoperative complications [30 days]
postoperative complications will be assessed and classified according to modified Clavien-Dindo classification. It consists of 7 grades (I, II, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb and V) in which grade I represents the least severe complications and grade V represents the most severe complications.
- Wound healing [30 days]
wound healing will be assessed by Pressure Ulcer Scale for Healing (PUSH) tool. this tool give every wound a score depending on surface area, exudate amount and tissue type. the scoring system ranging from 0 to 17 in which "0" represents completely healed wound and "17" represents the least healed wound. Surgical wounds are acute wounds that closure expected timeframe is about 4 weeks.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Recoverability time [30 days]
will be measured by number of days to return to daily activity.
- Infection rates [30 days]
infection rate will be assessed by need for intervention or prescription of non-prophylactic antibiotics or presence of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS).
