Core Tip

Core Tip: Enhanced recovery after surgery protocols (ERAS) is implemented in different surgical settings. The major advantage of ERAS is the early mobilization of the patient, which diminishes the possible risk of postoperative complications, including ileus and thromboembolic events. ERAS protocols include reduction of the period of hunger, acceleration of carbohydrate load, early oral feeding, and early mobilization that accelerates the recovery of normal activities, and reduces recovery time, hospital stay and hospital costs. ERAS is implemented in standard surgical settings; recently, ERAS has been successfully implemented in pediatric surgery, laparoscopy and robotic assisted surgery, and organ transplantation.
