The Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocol for the perioperative management of pituitary neuroendocrine tumors/pituitary adenomas.

Objective: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is a multimodal perioperative care pathway that has radically modified the management of patients in multiple surgical specialties. Until now, no ERAS Society guidelines have been formulated for the management of cranial pathologies. During the process of ERAS certification for their neurosurgical department, the authors formulated an ERAS protocol for the perioperative care of patients with pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNET), along with a compliance checklist to monitor the adherence to it and its feasibility.

Introduction: Gait analysis is increasingly used to support clinical decision-making regarding diagnosis and treatment planning for movement disorders. As a key part of gait analysis, inverse dynamics can be applied to estimate internal loading conditions during movement, which is essential for understanding pathological gait patterns. The inverse dynamics calculation uses external kinetic information, normally collected using force plates.
