Context: The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol is a multidisciplinary approach aimed at improving surgical outcomes, reducing complications, minimizing hospital stays, and lowering healthcare costs.
Objectives: This study assesses the impact of the ERAS protocol on elective craniotomies, a routine procedure in neurosurgery.
Methods: A comprehensive search across PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science identified 562 articles. Following strict screening criteria, 54 studies were reviewed, and ultimately 10 studies meeting the inclusion criteria were selected for detailed analysis.
Results: The review encompassed ten studies [one prospective, one systematic review, and eight randomized controlled trials (RCTs)] published between 2016 and 2023. Key components of the ERAS protocol included preoperative counseling, high-protein intestinal nutrition, preoperative fasting while avoiding carbohydrate intake within 2 hours of surgery, standardized anesthetic and analgesic regimens, and early postoperative initiation of enteral feeding. Postoperative outcomes showed fewer complications, early mobilization, and notably shorter hospital stays, all of which contributed to improved patient recovery.
Conclusions: This review demonstrates that the ERAS protocol, when applied to elective craniotomies, is effective in enhancing postoperative recovery, improving functional outcomes, and reducing hospitalization duration.

Background: The occurrence of pain catastrophizing, depression, and anxiety is prevalent among patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty (THA). The Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocol (ERAS-P) has demonstrated its efficacy in alleviating peri-operative stress responses in such patients. This study endeavors to explore the influence of ERAS-P on patient satisfaction, as well as the levels of pain catastrophizing, surgery-related anxiety, and depression following primary THA.

Objectives: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols for endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) have not been widely implemented, and a critical review of ERAS recommendations and a comprehensive analysis of the supporting literature has not been undertaken. We describe an ESS ERAS protocol including key perioperative interventions for patients undergoing ESS and assess the available evidence.
Data Sources: A search was conducted of all relevant ERAS literature in otorhinolaryngology, anesthesia, and surgery using Medline (via PubMed), and Scopus.
Compared to the adult literature, there are few enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols standardized in the pediatric population. The objective of the current study is to determine if the implementation of an ERAS protocol would improve patient outcomes in the ambulatory pediatric urologic population. A retrospective analysis was performed on pediatric patients who underwent urologic procedures (circumcision, orchiopexy, hypospadias correction, and urethroplasty) in the ambulatory surgical setting affiliated with a tertiary pediatric hospital.

Background: Although the 2021 Chinese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) provide recommendations for ERAS in gastrointestinal surgery, the clinical application of standard ERAS nursing models is challenging due to the variety of diseases involved in gastrointestinal surgery and the complex factors contributing to patient stress responses. Moreover, stress responses are more severe in older adult patients. Therefore, precision medicine is required to improve the quality of nursing care and promote postoperative recovery in gastrointestinal surgery.
