No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Although the ERAS program is widely used in elective procedures in many surgical subspecialties, the place of this program in emergency surgery remains uncertain probably because of the significant challenges in applying all ERAS pathways in the emergency setting. Nevertheless, the ERAS program is often modified in elective procedures on an individual and/ or institutional basis and thus may also have a role in the emergency setting albeit in a modified form.
