ENHANCED RECOVERY AFTER CAESAREAN SECTION - AN IMPROVED PATHWAY THAN CONVENTIONAL CARE FOR REDUCING HOSPITAL STAY.

Background: With the help of an evidence-based approach called "Enhanced Recovery After Surgery" (ERAS), patients can receive standardised perioperative care and recover more quickly. Many surgical specialities, such as orthopaedics, gynaecological onco-surgery, breast surgery, urology, and colorectal surgery, use ERAS protocols extensively. Improved postoperative recovery is beneficial in lowering hospital stays, and costs, and increasing patient satisfaction.
