Abstract

Aim-Background Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programmes have been applied mainly in patients undergoing major lower gastrointestinal surgery, to attenuate stress response to surgery and enable rapid recovery. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the implementation of ERAS care, as compared to traditional care, is associated with less morbidity (decreased incidence of major postoperative complications) and improved outcome in patients undergoing elective major upper and lower intra-abdominal surgery.
