Why the study?
ERAS protocols are emerging quickly in orthopedic spine surgery, but there is a lack of consensus on optimal ERAS practices.
ERAS protocols are emerging in orthopedic spine surgery, but there is a lack of consensus on optimal practices.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Lack of consensus precludes routine ERAS adoption in spine surgery; leaves open standardization via Delphi processes and RCTs.
Background: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is a multimodal, multidisciplinary approach to optimizing the postsurgical recovery process through preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative interventions. ERAS protocols are emerging quickly within orthopedic spine surgery, yet there is a lack of consensus on optimal ERAS practices.
