Brief Summary  

The study will include only selected patients who fit in our inclusion criteria & undergo pancreatico-duodenectomy at our Institute of Surgical Gastroenterology & Liver Transplantation, Govt Stanley medical College & Hospital.

 

A total of 44 lots, 22 for fast track & 22 for conventional protocol will be kept in a container and allowing patients to choose the follow up protocol under randomization at the time of admission and will be followed accordingly.

Fast track will be considered as study group and will be compared to control (conventional group)

            The purpose of the study will be explained to the subjects and a written informed consent

            will be obtained                                                 

Preoperative parameters- detailed demographic profile, clinical symptoms with duration, clinical findings, blood investigations reports (complete blood counts, renal function tests with electrolytes, blood sugar, liver function test), viral marker status (HBsAg, Anti HCV), upper GI endoscopy, findings of radiological imaging (x ray chest, usg abdomen with doppler, CECT abdomen / MRI abdomen & CA 19-9 values were recorded.

After assessing operability, classical pancreaticoduodenectomy to be done. Post operatively each patient will be followed according to the group alloted and recovery will be compared in each group.
