Enhanced Recovery Care Plan

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Care Plan

Key Objectives

Provide a tool for the remote management of kidney transplant patients

Outcome measures

Equip patients with the tools they need to support self-management post-operatively, as well as providing the tools they need to interact digitally rather than relying on a face to face consultations.

Current Baselines

All activity is face to face, patients are traveling large distances, and their follow-ups aren’t being efficiently, or effectively managed.

Workflow:

The whole workflow is from pre op> transplant> post-op but the care plan is introduced in the transplant phase.

Patient pathway

Patients register with their PKB record before surgery or on the ward post-operatively when the Enhance Recovery care plan is added to the patient's PKB record on day one by the nurse caring for the patient.

The care plan is completed by the nurse each day while the patient is in the hospital, which is normally for six days post-operatively, before being discharged home where they will complete the care plan themself. The care plan is then reviewed daily by the team over the phone with the patient.

<h2>Introduction to our enhanced recovery programme</h2>

<p>Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) helps patients to recover more quickly from their transplant. Reaching certain targets can reduce the likelihood of complications and can help improve the experience of patients as they recover.</p>

<p>We hope this journal will help you to understand what to expect and feel more involved in what happens during your transplant inpatient journey. The journal is yours to keep and complete to help you record your progress. Relatives, friends and members of the transplant team can help you to fill it in if you find this difficult. By completing this journal as you go along, it will help us to support you and ensure your recovery is as efficient as possible.</p>

<p><b>All elements of the programme may not be suitable for everyone. Do not worry if you don't meet all of your targets. Every patient is different and everyone will achieve targets at their own pace. The transplant team will make any changes where needed to make sure that you receive high quality care specific to your needs.</b></p>

<h2>On admission for your transplant</h2>

<ul>

<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">The nurses will ask you some questions to help plan for your needs when you go home.</li>

<li style="list-style:inherit; margin-left: 15px;">If you have a relative or friend who can be a support person during your recovery, please arrange for them to be available in the afternoon on days 3 and 4 following your transplant. This is an important part of your recovery where the nurses will provide you with education on how to look after your transplant as well as the details of your medications.</li>

<h2>Explanation of terms</h2>

<h3>Drain</h3>

<p>A tube coming from the transplant wound to remove blood and fluid that collects from the operation. It is connected to a bag that can be emptied so that the fluid volumes can be measured.</p>

<h3>Education session</h3>

<p>This is delivered by the nurses to give you information and help you better understand how to care for your new kidney. This will include signs and symptoms of potential complications as well as things you should try to avoid. They can put you in touch with other professionals if you need help with finances, work or have other concerns.</p>

<h3>ERAS = Enhanced recovery after surgery</h3>

<p>The name of the programme we are following to better support you as you recover from your operation.</p>

<h3>Fluid target</h3>

<p>On the morning ward round each day, we will suggest a certain amount of fluid that we would like you to aim to drink over the course of the day. It is important to try to work towards this but don't worry if you don't reach the target. Talk to the transplant team if you are finding it difficult and they will help.</p>

<h3>Medication card</h3>

<p>You will be provided with a card that has a list of your medications. This includes the name of the medication, the dose you take, when to take it and what the medication is for. The nurses will guide you in how to use this card to identify your medications.</p>

<h3>Pain Catheter</h3>

<p>This is a tiny tube inserted during the operation and sits around the muscle layer surrounding your new kidney. It provides a continuous supply of local anaesthetic to numb the area. The anaesthetic is stored in a ball that is attached to you. It usually lasts between 48-72 hours then it can be removed. You may also hear people referring to this as a 'pain buster' or 'OnQ catheter'.</p>

<h3>PCA = Patient controlled analgesia</h3>

<p>This is a machine that provides you with a painkiller called Fentanyl. This attaches to a cannula and enters the body through your veins. A dose is given each time you press the button. There is a safety mechanism which means you will only receive a dose once every 5 mins regardless of how often you press it. This usually stops 24 hours after surgery.</p>

<h3>Physiotherapy mobility programme</h3>

<p>A programme designed to help restore, maintain and make the most of a patient's mobility, function and well-being.</p>

<p>After your transplant, the physiotherapists will assess you and provide you with a mobility programme (A, B or C) prescribing a distance for you to try to walk each day. This is an important part of your recovery. They will take into account your level of fitness before transplant as well as your ability after the operation to make sure that the programme is right for you.</p>
