Completing the required ERAS Implementation Program provided by the International ERAS Society enabled the hepatopancreaticobiliary surgery team at Carolinas HealthCare System to successfully implement evidence-based practice changes for pancreaticoduodenectomy patients on an acuity-adjustable unit resulting in improved care and cost reduction.
