Abstract
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programs reduce recovery time, length of stay (LOS), and complications after major surgical procedures.
We evaluated our 2-year experience with a newly implemented comprehensive ERAS program at a high-volume center after pancreatic surgery.
Outcomes, cost, and compliance metrics were assessed in 215 patients who underwent elective pancreatic surgery (pre-ERAS; n = 99; post-ERAS: n = 116). Mann-Whitney U and χ2 tests were used to evaluate continuous and categorical variables.
There were significant decreases in LOS and cost in the post-ERAS cohorts. There were significant increases in compliance with ERAS implementation. Postoperative complication, readmission, and survival rates did not increase.
Implementation of ERAS at a large-volume hospital may improve compliance and reduce costs and LOS without increasing adverse outcomes.
