摘要
Enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)protocols are applied in orthopedic surgery and are intended to reduce perioperative stress by implementing combined evidence-based practices with the cooperation of various health professionals as an interdisciplinary team.ERAS pathways include pre-operative patient counselling,regional anesthesia and analgesia techniques,post-operative pain management,early mobilization and early feeding.Studies have shown improvement in the recovery of patients who followed an ERAS program after hip or knee arthroplasty,compared with those who followed a traditional care approach.ERAS protocols reduce post-operative stress,contribute to rapid recovery,shorten length of stay(LOS)without increasing the complications or readmissions,improve patient satisfaction and decrease the hospital costs.We suggest that the ERAS pathway could reduce the LOS in hospital for patients undergoing total hip replacement or total knee replacement.These programs require good organization and handling by the multidisciplinary team.ERAS programs increase patient's satisfaction due to their active participation which they experience as personalized treatment.The aim of the study was to develop an ERAS protocol for oncology patients who undergo bone reconstruction surgeries using massive endoprosthesis,with a view to improving the surgical outcomes.
