Efficacy of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Protocols in Emergency Colorectal Surgery: A Meta-Analytical Comparison With Conventional Care in Terms of Outcomes and Complications.

The "Enhanced Recovery After Surgery" (ERAS) strategy, a patient-centered, evidence-based approach, aims to reduce surgical stress, maintain physiological function, and expedite recovery. Initially developed for elective surgeries, particularly colorectal procedures, ERAS protocols are now being explored for their potential benefits in the more challenging context of emergency surgeries. The current investigation aims to identify the most useful ERAS components in emergency surgery scenarios by comparing postoperative recovery times, possible health outcomes of patients, and complication rates.
