Why the study?
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery evidence-based protocols can improve clinical outcomes and cost savings, prompting consensus recommendations for perioperative care in cardiac surgery.
What are the consensus recommendations for the optimal perioperative management of patients undergoing cardiac surgery using ERAS protocols?
What are the consensus recommendations for the optimal perioperative management of patients undergoing cardiac surgery using ERAS protocols?
This document provides ERAS Society-endorsed consensus recommendations for evidence-based perioperative care protocols in cardiac surgery.
May guide perioperative protocols in cardiac surgery; leaves open prospective validation of components and outcomes.
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) evidence-based protocols for perioperative care can lead to improvements in clinical outcomes and cost savings. This article aims to present consensus recommendations for the optimal perioperative management of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. A review of meta-analyses, randomized clinical trials, large nonrandomized studies, and reviews was conducted for each protocol element. The quality of the evidence was graded and used to form consensus recommendations for each topic. Development of these recommendations was endorsed by the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Society.
