NUTRIGO: Immunonutrition in ERAS Protocols in Gynecologic Oncology
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
A patient with oncological pathology of any type because of impaired digestion and nutrient absorption, decreased intake, and increased nutrition requirements has an increased risk of malnutrition and moderate to severe weight loss.In the present study the investigators will evaluate the impact of perioperative immunonutrition supplementation on the postoperative outcomes.

Detailed Description
Malnutrition has a major effect not only on the postoperative course of cancer surgery but can also complicate or even limit administration or compromise the effectiveness of other treatments such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy in the perioperative period. Immunonutrition is a type of artificial nutrition based on the use of some types of macro- or micronutrients.The purpose of this review was to evaluate the use, indications, and effects of these formulas in oncologic surgical patients in real time and to identify the types of patients who can benefit from enteral immunonutrition.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Immunonutrition and ERAS Immunonutrition supplements will be provided to patients in the form of oral supplements given twice daily for 3 days pre-surgery and 3 days post-surgery. |
Dietary Supplement: Immunonutrition
enteral supplementation with high amount of proteins, arginine, glutamine, nonessential fatty acids, branched chain fatty acids, nucleotides, or RNA
|
No Intervention: ERAS without immunonutrition Typical ERAS protocol will be followed for patients in that group |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Perioperative infections [Postoperatively (30 days)]
We will notice possible surgical site infections,respiratory inflammations etc and calculate inflammatory markers and the concentration of white blood cells
- Duration of hospitalization [Until discharge from hospital]
From date of hospitalization until the date of discharge or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 months.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Postoperative mobilization [Until first day of mobilization]
From date of surgery until the date of discharge or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 months.
- Postoperative morbidity (other than infectious) [30 days]
Major events such as pulmonary embolism,accuse myocardial infarction,etc
- Recurrence rates [3 years follow-up]
Recurrent disease will be monitored through 3 year of follow up
- Overall survival [3 years follow-up]
Overall survival of the patients will be measured through 3 year of follow up
