Why the study?
Evidence-based suggestions were needed for coordinated perioperative care in patients undergoing major limb amputation due to nonreconstructable chronic limb-threatening ischemia.
This consensus statement provides 33 evidence-based suggestions for ERAS-based perioperative care in patients undergoing major limb amputation for chronic limb-threatening ischemia.
Supports ERAS adoption for major limb amputation in CLTI; extends perioperative optimization evidence to this high-risk group.
The Society for Vascular Surgery elected an international, multidisciplinary panel of experts to review the literature and provide evidence-based suggestions for coordinated perioperative care for patients undergoing major limb amputation due to nonreconstructable chronic limb-threatening ischemia.Structured around the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) core elements, 33 suggestions were made and organized into preadmission, preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative sections.
