Abstract

The ERAS programs introduce measures that have been shown to either lessen surgical stress or assist the body in mitigating its adverse effects in order to preserve normal physiology postoperatively and improve patient outcomes.
These components include preoperative counselling and patient education, lessening preoperative fasting time, avoiding mechanical preparation of bowel and dehydration, prophylaxis of nausea and vomiting, tailoring of anaesthesia with a focus on short-acting anesthetic agents and regional anaesthesia, goal-oriented fluid control to establish perioperative euvolemia, normothermia intraoperatively, no routine usage nasogastric tubes (NGTs) and drains, early oral feeding, early mobilisation, early removal of catheter, and a preference for nonopioid analgesics.
