What is the ERAS protocol?
ERAS is a comprehensive approach involving a multidisciplinary team that implements best practices throughout the perioperative journey, from pre-admission through post-discharge. AORN emphasizes that ERAS aims to standardize care, reduce variability, and ultimately improve patient outcomes. While AORN's focus is on perioperative nursing, the organization recognizes ERAS as a collaborative, interprofessional effort. The AORN guidelines provide a framework for implementing ERAS principles in various surgical settings.
How to access the AORN ERAS guideline?
AORN's new ERAS guideline is a valuable resource for all members of the perioperative team and represents a significant step towards a future where ERAS is the standard of care for every surgical patient. The AORN guidelines offer evidence-based practice to standardize care and improve patient outcomes. The new ERAS guideline can be found in eGuidelines+, as well as the 2025 print guideline book and ebook.
AORN also offers a free comprehensive education and recognition program, Implementation of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery, through the AORN Center of Excellence in Surgical Safety initiative.
