Overview

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols were introduced in the early 1990‘s. ERAS protocols reduce the length of stay in hospital and complication rates in surgical patients. In the Czech Republic, ERAS is still not a standard part of perioperative care. Adherence to ERAS protocols would lead to more effective treatment in the Czech healthcare system like elsewhere.
