Abstract

The advent of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) has introduced a total reformation in perioperative care, replacing classic methods with a better, evidence-oriented approach, that focuses on the patient rather than their surgery. ERAS protocol applies the comprehensive approach to patient care by taking all stages before, during, and postoperatively into account. These schemes center on personalized treatments that are customized to the individual's individual needs. The vital constituents of ERAS include nutrition evaluation and improvement, patient education, minimally invasive procedures, and multimodal pain management. ERAS provides a wide range of benefits such as a reduction in postoperative complications, shorter hospital stay periods, better patient outcomes, and a decrease in cost to the medical industry. This paper will discuss systematically what are previous clinical outcomes in general surgery with EARS protocol as compared to traditional approaches.
