ENHANCED RECOVERY AFTER SURGERY PROTOCOLS: A Multidisciplinary Implementation Guide.

Build more coordinated perioperative pathways from preoperative planning to post-discharge improvement. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Protocols is a comprehensive professional reference for clinicians and health-system teams who need more than a checklist. It connects surgical stress physiology, preoperative optimization, anesthesia strategy, fluid therapy, opioid-sparing analgesia, nausea and ileus prevention, early mobilization, discharge planning, and quality audit into one practical framework for perioperative pathway design. Written for surgeons, anesthesiologists, perioperative nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, dietitians, residents, and quality leaders, this book explains how coordinated care can support safer, more consistent surgical recovery practices across multiple specialties. Inside, readers will learn to: - Understand the neuroendocrine, inflammatory, metabolic, and functional reasons behind structured perioperative care.- Coordinate team roles across preoperative assessment, intraoperative optimization, postoperative milestones, and discharge planning.- Apply specialty-focused considerations for colorectal, hepatobiliary, bariatric, gynecologic, urologic, thoracic, orthopedic, and cardiac cases.- Build practical workflows for prehabilitation, carbohydrate loading, goal-directed fluid therapy, multimodal analgesia, nutrition, and mobilization.- Strengthen audit, compliance tracking, feedback reporting, and quality improvement for long-term program sustainability.- Translate evidence-informed concepts into clearer clinical pathways, training tools, and implementation discussions. If you want a detailed, multidisciplinary resource for understanding and applying enhanced surgical recovery principles in real clinical settings, this guide gives you the structure, language, and implementation focus to move from isolated practices to coordinated perioperative care.
