Enhanced recovery pathways implementing concurrent evidence-based interventions improve surgical patient outcomes more effectively than individual interventions.
This article reviews the enhanced recovery pathway and its benefits for surgical patients.
May support bundled enhanced recovery protocols perioperatively; leaves open the need for randomized trials to confirm superiority.
Enhanced recovery involves the implementation of several evidence-based interventions concurrently in pathways of care for surgery, rather than individually, to ensure they have a greater impact on patient outcomes. This article explains the enhanced recovery pathway and discusses some of its benefits.
