Abstract
Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a multidisciplinary and evidence-based framework, developed to decrease perioperative surgical stress, accelerate postoperative recovery and significantly reduce the postoperative length of hospital stay (PLOS). The benefit of implementing ERAS programs on postoperative complications in pancreatic surgery has not reached consensus. Hence based on above findings the present study was planned to evaluate the safety and outcome of patients undergoing elective pancreatic surgery with ERAS protocol. The study was planned in the Department of Surgery in V.I.M.S, Pawapuri, Bihar from March 2018 to July 2018. Total 50 patients were enrolled in the present study undergoing pancreas surgery like pancreaticoduodenectomy, pancreatectomy. Postoperative outcomes included postoperative length of hospital stay, overall morbidity, major morbidity, unplanned reoperation, readmission and mortality. Grades of complications were recorded according to the Clavien Dindo classification. Enhanced Recovery after Surgery protocols are effective in pancreatic surgery. They improve efficiency, hospital length of stay, and costs. Enhanced Recovery after Surgery is safe. Enhanced Recovery after Surgery decreases postoperative morbidity, especially delayed gastric emptying. The perioperative period for pancreatic surgery is safe and effective to implement ERAS programs that can decrease postoperative complication rates and promote recovery.
