Description

Getting liver surgery patients walking early is harder than protocols assume, in a 2026 review by Yan Zhang and colleagues. The team mined their unit's recovery-pathway quality archive for 320 elective hepatobiliary surgery patients treated from January 2022 to December 2024.

The pathway prescribed out-of-bed activity by the first postoperative day and at least 30 meters of walking by day two, alongside eight standardized care components. Records captured who actually complied and what barriers nurses documented, plus length of stay and first flatus timing. Mapping real-world compliance and its obstacles is a first step toward making enhanced recovery promises hold at the bedside.
