Abstract:Objective To investigate the effect of enteral nutrition support combined with cardiopulmonary rehabilitation training on the prognosis of elderly patients with postoperative fatigue syndrome of esophageal carcinoma.Methods Eighty elderly patients with postoperative fatigue syndrome of esophageal cancer in our hospital from March 2020 to March 2023 were randomly divided into a control group(40 cases)and an ultra-early group(40 cases).Both groups received cardiopulmonary rehabilitation training within 24~48 hours after operation,and the ultra-early group received enteral nutrition support within 12 hours after operation,while the control group received enteral nutrition support within 12~24 hour after operation.The scores of fatigue visual analogue scale on the day of operation,3 days and 7 days after operation,as well as cardiopulmonary function(HR,FEV1/FVC,FVC,MVV),nutritional indicators(ALB,TP,TRF,Hb)and complications at discharge were compared between the two groups Results The fatigue scores of the ultra-early group at 3 days and 7 days after operation were lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).HR of the ultra early group was lower than that of the control group,and FEV1/FVC,FVC and MVV were higher than those of the control group(P<0.05).At discharge,the ALB,TP,TRF and Hb in the ultra early group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of complications in the ultra early group was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Enteral nutritional support combined with cardiopulmonary rehabilitation training at different times can improve the fatigue state,cardiopulmonary function and nutritional level of elderly patients with esophageal cancer after operation,especially when enteral nutrition support within 12 hours after surgery.
