Improving Perioperative Care in Gastric Surgery: Insights from the EUropean PErioperative MEdical Networking (EUPEMEN) Project.

ABSTRACT: Background/Objectives: Gastric cancer remains a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide and surgical resection represents the mainstay of treatment procedures. However, despite the advancements noted in the field of surgical oncology, perioperative complications and variability in the perioperative care provided persist. To address the challenges caused by non-standardized perioperative care for gastric surgery across European healthcare systems, the EUropean PErioperative MEdical Networking (EUPEMEN) protocol has been developed. The present study concisely provides the EUPEMEN protocol's development, implementation, and impact on perioperative management in gastric resections. Methods: The EUPEMEN protocol was developed through a multidisciplinary collaboration invo
