Key result
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols in craniomaxillofacial surgery are reviewed to outline evidence and recommendations for preadmission, intraoperative, and postoperative management.
Why the study?
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocols have been largely developed in general surgery, prompting a review of the evidence and recommendations for their development in craniomaxillofacial surgery.
ERAS protocols, which aim to reduce surgical stress and expedite recovery, are reviewed for their application in craniomaxillofacial surgery.
May inform ERAS adoption in craniomaxillofacial surgery; leaves open need for prospective trials to confirm benefits.
Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) refers to a patient centered, multidisciplinary team developed pathway aimed at reducing the surgical stress response and facilitating expedited patient postoperative recovery. These protocols have been largely developed in the general surgery literature and have led to vast improvements in the patient experience. ERAS protocols are generally substantiated on 3 phases along the continuum of surgical care: preadmission optimization, intraoperative treatment, and postoperative management. In this article, the evidence for ERAS development in craniomaxillofacial surgery will be reviewed, and recommendations from prior studies for enhanced recovery will be outlined.

Kavoosi et al. (2023) conducted a review in Craniomaxillofacial surgery. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols was evaluated. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols in craniomaxillofacial surgery are reviewed to outline evidence and recommendations for preadmission, intraoperative, and postoperative management.
