Details and patient eligibility

About

Enhanced recovery programs are composed of preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative strategies combined to form a multi-modal pathway. ERAS requires a multidisciplinary team of anesthetists, surgeons and nurses for successful implementation and realization of its advantages.The aim of this study is to compare outcomes of conventional perioperative care with those of an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) perioperative care plan in women undergoing surgery for gynecologic cancer or suspected gynecologic disease.

Full description

The study design is a two-arm, randomized, controlled trial. The control arm will consist of standard conventional perioperative care. The intervention arm will consist of a protocol-driven ERAS program. The investigators believe that this information will be very useful because although there is a national interest in creating ERAS protocols for gynecology, there currently is very little published on the subject. Investigators hypothesize that those patients randomized to the ERAS protocol will have shorter lengths of hospital stay and complications, without increasing readmission rates. The investigators would like to publish the investigators' results and protocol as a resource for other institutions to adopt.
