Implication

Prospective observational study evaluates enhanced recovery protocols in elective ophthalmic surgeries, indicating improved recovery and patient satisfaction.

Key Points

  • This research aims to assess the feasibility and benefits of ERAS protocols for elective ophthalmic surgeries under general anesthesia.
  • Included 70 patients over 1 month old undergoing elective ophthalmic surgery.
  • Adapted key ERAS elements such as preoperative counselling and multimodal analgesia.
  • Assessed pain using various scoring systems and collected feedback via a validated questionnaire.
  • Analyzed data using SPSS.
  • Mean fasting durations were 7.04 hours for solids and 3.02 hours for clear liquids.
  • Effective pain control was achieved with a low-dose opioid regimen and paracetamol; few patients needed rescue analgesia.
  • Postoperative nausea and vomiting incidence was low at 8.6%.
  • 91.4% of participants rated their satisfaction as 4 or 5 on a 5-point scale.
