A novel neurosurgical ERAS protocol for elective craniotomy significantly reduces postoperative hospital stay and accelerates recovery without increasing complications.
This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.
This multidisciplinary, evidence-based, neurosurgical ERAS protocol for elective craniotomy appears to have significant benefits over conventional perioperative management. Implementation of ERAS is associated with a significant reduction in the postoperative hospital stay and an acceleration in recovery, without increasing complication rates related to elective craniotomy. Further evaluation of this protocol in large multicenter studies is warranted.Clinical trial registration no.: ChiCTR-INR-16009662 (chictr.org.cn).
