Preoperative optimization and enhanced recovery after surgery

Enhanced recovery pathways have been repeatedly shown to reduce length of stay and complication rates for patients undergoing elective major surgery across multiple surgical specialties.

Multidisciplinary team engagement and continuous audit of outcomes are crucial in sustaining a successful enhanced recovery after surgery programme.
