Key result
The ACERTO multimodal perioperative care protocol has been disseminated across Brazil over 15 years, with compiled studies showing benefits such as reduced hospital stay and complications.
Why the study?
The article aims to compile publications and experiences related to the ACERTO project and outline its 15-year evolution in modern perioperative care in Brazil.
The ACERTO project has successfully disseminated a modern, evidence-based multimodal perioperative care protocol in Brazil over 15 years, leading to improved surgical outcomes.
Supports ACERTO dissemination in Brazil; leaves open prospective RCTs to confirm benefits.
The ACERTO project is a multimodal perioperative care protocol. Implemented in 2005, the project in the last 15 years has disseminated the idea of a modern perioperative care protocol, based on evidence and with interdisciplinary team work. Dozens of published studies, using the protocol, have shown benefits such as reduced hospital stay, postoperative complications and hospital costs. Disseminated in Brazil, the project is supported by the Brazilian College of Surgeons and the Brazilian Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, among others. This article compiles publications by the authors who belong to the CNPq research group "Acerto em Nutrição e Cirurgia", refers to the experience of other national authors in various surgical specialties, and finally outlines the evolution of the ACERTO project in the timeline.
