Key result
Enhanced recovery programs promote standardized, multidisciplinary perioperative care to improve functional recovery and patient outcomes in the surgical oncology population.
Why the study?
Nurses in acute and critical care need to understand the paradigm shift toward enhanced recovery approaches to better adopt these practices for surgical oncology patients.
Enhanced recovery programs promote standardized, multidisciplinary care to improve functional recovery in surgical oncology patients, requiring nurses to adapt to this paradigm shift.
May support nurse adaptation to enhanced recovery in oncology surgery; leaves open need for prospective validation before practice change.
Enhanced recovery programs are multimodal, evidence-based perioperative programs designed to improve a patient's functional recovery after surgery. Enhanced recovery programs promote standardized, multidisciplinary care throughout the perioperative course to improve patient outcomes, rather than focusing on surgical technique. It is important for nurses working in acute and critical care to be aware of the paradigm shift created by the trend toward the enhanced recovery approach. By learning more about facets of the approach, the nurse will be better prepared to adopt whatever aspects of enhanced recovery their institution implements for the surgical oncology population. An overview is provided of the potential components of enhanced recovery.
