Abstract：Objective: To obserre the effects of Power-lift Stirrups in radical resection of rectal carcinoma surgery. Methods: A total of 106 patients undergone radical resection of rectal surgery with continuous epidural anesthesia were randomly assigned to either control group or Power-lift Stirrups group. Patients in control group were placed in lithotomy position, while patients in Power-lift Stirrups group were positioned by the use of stirrups under the calf which nearly horizontal. The assessment of position setup time, surgeon satisfaction and incidence of postoperative complications were collected for comparison. Results: The results showed significant shorter position setup time in Power-lift Stirrups group (P<0.05), and surgeon satisfaction is 98%, which is significant better than that in control group as 66% (P<0.05). Moreover, significant effects for postoperative complications, including varicose veins of lower extremity (3 versus 0, P<0.05) and swelling of lower extremity (4 versus 0, P<0.05), were seen in control group and Power-lift Stirrups group, respectively. Conclusion: The use of Power-lift Stirrups in radical resection of rectal carcinoma surgery may shorten position setup time, improve the surgeon satisfaction and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications.
