Patients were grouped according to three stages of the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocol implementation: (i) pre\u2010Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (group\u00a0A; <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a0146); (ii) pre\u2010alvimopan Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (group B; <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a0102); and (iii) Enhanced Recovery After Surgery plus alvimopan (group\u00a0C; <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a048). The primary outcome was the length of hospital stay. Secondary outcomes were time to first bowel movement, time to tolerate a regular diet, the incidence of postoperative ileus, postoperative complications and 30\u2010day readmission rate.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Group\u00a0C showed a significantly shorter median length of hospital stay (7\u00a0days, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.003), shorter gastrointestinal recovery time (4\u00a0days, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.018) and a lower rate of postoperative ileus (14.6%, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.005). The reduction in length of hospital stay, gastrointestinal recovery time and a lower rate of postoperative ileus was significant after controlling for other confounders on multivariable regression analysis. With the open approach, group\u00a0C showed a significantly shorter length of hospital stay and gastrointestinal recovery time (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.005, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.001, respectively); however, in robotic cohorts, no significant differences were observed.

Patients seem to derive the optimum benefits of alvimopan when it is used with an open approach; however, these benefits become less obvious with the robotic
