Summary

Currently, at the CHUM - Notre-Dame Hospital, there is no standardized patient care pathway for patients undergoing Video Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS) lobectomy. The investigators goal is to implement an Enhanced Recovery Program (ERP) for patient undergoing VATS lobectomy.

The care given to patient prior to the implementation of this protocol was different amongst patients and depended on the surgeon's preferences. The implementation of this ERP will permit a reproducible and routine management for patients following their surgery.

Enhanced Recovery pathway

The enhanced recovery pathway consists of postoperative medical orders including nursing care, investigations and tests, and other peri-operative orders. The enhanced recovery pathway is standardized for all patients, and can be discontinued at any time when clinical judgment mandates (i.e. patient has a severe complication).
