Conclusion:
ERAS (Enhanced Recovery after Surgery) is a perioperative treatment program based on evidence-based medicine. Guidelines consist of pre-operative, perioperative and post-operative care items. Implementation of the ERAS protocol leads to a decrease in complications up to 40% and a reduction in hospitalization by up to 30%, thereby reducing overall costs without increasing the number of rehospitalizations. Multidisciplinary cooperation not only with anesthesiologists and consultant surgeons, but also with nutritional specialists and nurses is crucial.
