The Korean Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Committee within the Korean Society of Surgical Metabolism and Nutrition was established to develop ERAS guidelines tailored to the Korean context. This guideline focuses on creating the most current evidence-based practice guidelines for ERAS based on systematic reviews. All key questions targeted randomized controlled trials (RCTs) exclusively. If fewer than two RCTs were available, studies using propensity score matching were also included. Recommendations for each key question were marked with strength of recommendation and level of evidence following internal and external review processes by the committee.

Development of the Korean Version of the Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index Questionnaire: In Jun Yang, Heung-Kwon Oh, Jeehye Lee, Jung Wook Suh, Hong-min Ahn, Hyeonjeong Park, Hyun Hee Sim, Yong Beom Cho, In Kyu Lee, Seungbum Ryoo, Dong-Won Lee, Duck-Woo Kim, Sung-Bum Kang; Ann Clin Nutr Metab 2022;14(1):32-37.

Abstract PDF

Purpose: To establish a standardized quality of life measurement that allows global cross-study comparisons, we translated the Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (GIQLI) into Korean and linguistically validated the Korean version of the GIQLI (K-GIQLI) in patients who underwent colorectal surgery.
Materials and Methods: A cross-cultural adaptation of the original GIQLI was created based on the established guidelines. Based on participation in a cognitive interview, 20 patients with colorectal cancer were enrolled in the study. To ensure that the Korean version of the questionnaire was understood as intended, the time needed to complete the questionnaire was measured, and three additional items related to comprehension were added.
Results: From May to July 2021, two translators, whose native language was Korean translated the GIQLI items into Korean, and a native English editor who had no knowledge of the original questionnaire translated the items back into English. In the cognitive interview, the median age of the patients was 61.8 (range: 44~82) years, and the median time required to complete the questionnaire was 6.5 (range: 5~10) min. For the language and cultural adaptation process, the participants’ comprehension of the questionnaire was measured on a scale of 1~5, with a mean score of 4 (range: 3~4).
Conclusion: The K-GIQLI was developed and did not exhibit a significant difference from the original English version in terms of social, linguistic, and cultural differences between the Western world and Republic of Korea.

Risk Factor of Anemia after a Gastrectomy in Patients with Gastric Cancer: In Jun Yang, Dong-Wook Kim, Ye Seob Jee; Surg Metab Nutr 2019;10(1):15-19. Published online June 30, 2019; DOI: https://doi.org/10.18858/smn.2019.10.1.15

Abstract PDF

Purpose:

In this study, we evaluate hematologic change of iron and vitamin B₁₂ on post-operative anemia after gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

Materials and Methods:

The patients with gastric cancer who underwent gastrectomy between January 2013 and December 2013 in Dankook university hospital were retrospectively reviewed. The 62 patients were followed up for 36 month postoperatively.

Results:

The incidences of anemia in female patients were turned out to be higher than those in male patients but there were no statistical difference; (44.4% vs 40.9%, P=0.399) at 6 month, (33.3% vs 25.0%, P=0.252) at 12 month, (22.2% vs 15.9%, P=0.277) at 18 month, (27.8% vs 15.9%, P=0.142) at 36 month after surgery. Patients with distal gastrectomy after the surgery showed decreasing incidence of anemia while patients with total gastrectomy showed decreasing incidence of anemia until 12 months but increasing incidence after that time.

Conclusion:

Anemia, Vitamin B₁₂ and iron deficiency must be evaluated after surgery for gastric cancer and active treatment is necessary as needed.
