Abstract:
Quality improvement and enhanced recovery initiatives for coronarybypass surgery have reduced complications, shortened hospital stay and recovery times, and improved patient outcomes. Beyond the Society of Thoracic Surgery's (STS) quality metrics, many other operative measures, such as completeness of revascularization, and patient care measures add quality and value for patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery; and Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) protocols have improved patient experience and recovery, leading to better outcomes and significant healthcare savings.
