Abstract:
AbstractEnhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is a global initiative comprised of a series of evidence-based interventions in the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative surgical phases. When implemented as a bundle, ERAS interventions both improve clinical outcomes and provide cost savings to the health care system. This review provides an update on the current evidence for individual ERAS elements to improve quality of care as well as practical recommendations for multidisciplinary teams to implement their own ERAS programs.
