Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols are a series of coordinated medical practices designed to help patients recover more quickly and comfortably after surgery. These protocols include evidence-based techniques such as optimized pain management, early mobilization, minimal use of opioids, proper nutrition, and reducing surgical stress. By preparing patients before surgery and carefully managing their care afterward, ERAS aims to reduce complications, shorten hospital stays, and improve overall outcomes, making the recovery process smoother and more efficient.
