Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) in Patients Undergoing Gynecologic Surgery

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is a multidisciplinary perioperative care program designed to reduce surgical stress, accelerate postoperative recovery, and improve clinical outcomes. This prospective, non-randomized study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an ERAS program in patients undergoing gynecologic surgery at National Taiwan University Hospital Hsin-Chu Branch. Patients who choose to participate in the ERAS program will receive perioperative care according to the institutional ERAS protocol, while those who choose conventional perioperative care will serve as the comparison group. Perioperative outcomes, postoperative recovery, postoperative complications, pain scores, and other clinical outcomes will be compared between the two groups to evaluate the clinical impact of implementing an ERAS program.

Primary outcomes

  1. Time to First Ambulation

    Time frame: Up to 3 days after surgery

    Time from return to the hospital ward after surgery to the first ambulation, defined as leaving the bed and standing independently.

  2. Postoperative Pain Score

    Time frame: 4, 8, 16, 24, 48 hours after surgery

    Postoperative pain intensity will be assessed using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), ranging from 0 to 10, with 0 indicating no pain and 10 indicating the worst possible pain. Higher scores indicate greater pain intensity.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Time to First Gas Passage

    Time frame: Up to 7 days after surgery

  2. Time to First Stool Passage

    Time frame: Up to 7 days after surgery

  3. Time to removal of Foley catheter

    Time frame: Up to 7 days after surgery

  4. Postoperative nausea or vomiting

    Time frame: Up to 7 days after surgery

  5. Overall Postoperative Complication Rate

    Time frame: Up to 90 days after surgery

  6. Length of Hospital Stay

    Time frame: Up to 14 days after surgery
