Key result
A higher number of implemented Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) components was correlated with a shorter length of hospital stay in patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery.
Why the study?
The evaluation of specific ERAS components applied in colorectal surgery and their relationship to patient outcomes remained unclear.
Does fulfilling a higher number of ERAS components reduce the length of stay in patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery?
Cross-Sectional (n=63)
No
Does fulfilling a higher number of ERAS components reduce the length of stay in patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery?
Fulfilling a higher number of ERAS components is significantly associated with a shorter postoperative length of stay in patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports greater ERAS component use in elective colorectal surgery; leaves open whether implementation shortens length of stay.

Jeo et al. (2020) conducted a cross-sectional in Elective colorectal surgery (n=63). Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol components vs. Fewer ERAS components was evaluated on Length of stay (LOS) (r = -0.568, p=<0.01). A higher number of implemented Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) components was correlated with a shorter length of hospital stay in patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery.
