Assessment of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Implementation at Pediatric Surgery Practices in Mainland China

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a new mode to optimize perioperative management, the core of which is to reduce perioperative physiological and psychological trauma and stress damage, and accelerate postoperative rehabilitation. ERAS has been gradually introduced in pediatric surgery in recent years, however, there are limited reports on its overall implementation. We aimed to determine the popularity of ERAS among pediatric populations in mainland China.

About this study

The application of ERAS in children with congenital biliary dilatation (CBD) was investigated. A total of 31 province-level administrative regions in mainland China were involved and each of them had at least one participating center. A questionnaire was designed to assess the baseline adherence of 17 recovery elements and chief pediatric surgeons at each center were invited to complete.
