Area of Science:

Surgical Nursing
Healthcare Management

Background:

Rapid recovery (RR) programs aim to minimize surgical stress.
These programs seek to reduce nurse workload, costs, and hospital stays.
Enhanced patient empowerment and improved post-surgical recovery are key goals.

Purpose of the Study:

Define the concept of rapid recovery (RR) or fast-track programs.
Review the existing evidence for implementing RR programs in nursing.
Assess the benefits and risks associated with RR programs in nursing.

Main Methods:

An integrative literature review was conducted.
The review focused on the definition and implementation of RR programs in nursing.
Evidence regarding the effectiveness and efficiency of RR protocols was analyzed.

Main Results:

RR programs demonstrate benefits such as reduced morbidity and mortality.
The incidence of adverse events in RR programs is low.
Multidisciplinary team coordination is essential for successful RR program implementation.

Conclusions:

The benefits and low risk of RR programs in nursing justify their implementation.
Increased support and dissemination are necessary for the development of RR programs.
Further research is required to strengthen the evidence base for RR protocol effectiveness and efficiency.
