Influence of enhanced recovery after surgery protocol on first exhaust time after laparoscopic resection of colorectal cancer

Figure 1 Comparison of patient satisfaction scores between enhanced recovery after surgery and conventional groups. The bar chart shows patient satisfaction score comparisons between enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) and conventional groups across four dimensions (using a 5-point scale, 1 = very dissatisfied, 5 = very satisfied). Yellow bars represent the ERAS group, and purple bars represent the conventional group. Error bars indicate standard deviation. The ERAS group demonstrated significantly higher satisfaction scores than the conventional group in overall satisfaction (4.7 ± 0.4 vs 3.8 ± 0.8), pain management (4.6 ± 0.5 vs 3.6 ± 0.9), dietary recovery (4.8 ± 0.4 vs 3.7 ± 0.8), and rehabilitation guidance (4.7 ± 0.4 vs 4.0 ± 0.7). Data are presented as mean ± SD. ^aP < 0.05. ERAS: Enhanced recovery after surgery.
