The ERAS Protocol: Faster, Safer Surgical Recovery

SUMMARY: This episode introduces listeners to the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol, exploring its origin, guiding principles, and the rationale behind its evidence-based practices. Listeners will gain an understanding of how ERAS differs from traditional surgical care pathways and the ways in which it improves patient outcomes. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in successful ERAS implementation. 

Building on foundational knowledge, this episode examines how ERAS principles are integrated across the perioperative continuum—from patient education and nutrition to multimodal analgesia and early mobilization. Real-world examples from clinical settings will illustrate how nurses and other healthcare providers can implement ERAS strategies to reduce complications, shorten hospital stays, and improve patient satisfaction.
