Summary

Objective: To evaluate the impact of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS)-based nursing intervention on venous thromboembolism (VTE) and lymphedema after radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer.

Methods: In this prospective randomized controlled trial, 160 patients scheduled for radical hysterectomy during September 2022-September 2024 were randomized to an ERAS group (n = 80) or a control group (n = 80). The control group received conventional perioperative care, while the ERAS group received a multimodal perioperative care protocol. Primary outcomes were the 6-month incidence of VTE and lower limb lymphedema. Secondary outcomes included recovery indicators, inflammatory and coagulation markers, quality of life \[QoL; assessed by the Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30)\], and nursing satisfaction.

BEHAVIORAL

ERAS group

In addition to conventional care, the ERAS group received a comprehensive intervention protocol based on ERAS principles, implemented by a dedicated ERAS nursing team. Details are as follows: Preoperative interventions: (1) Enhanced education and prehabilitation: Detailed explanation of the ERAS pathway, VTE and lymphedema prevention using graphics and videos. Instruction on ankle pump exercises and quadriceps isometric contractions. (2) Nutritional support: Nutritional risk assessment and provision of oral nutritional supplements if necessary. (3) Fasting management: No solid food for 6 hours, clear oral fluids (e.g., 200 mL of 10% glucose solution) allowed up to 2 hours preoperatively. Intraoperative interventions: (1) Thermoregulation: Use of forced-air warming blankets and fluid warmers to maintain core temperature \> 36°C. (2) Restrictive fluid management: Goal-directed fluid therapy to avoid excessive infusion. (3) Minimally invasive and meticulous surgery: Encouragement of laparo
