Enhanced recovery after surgery on multiple clinical outcomes: Umbrella review of systematic reviews and meta-analyses.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Previously, many meta-analyses have reported the impact of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs on many surgical specialties.

Objectives

To systematically assess the effects of ERAS pathways on multiple clinical outcomes in surgery.

Date sources

PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library.

Results

The umbrella review identified 23 meta-analyses of interventional study and observational study. Consistent and robust evidence shown that the ERAS programs can significantly reduce the length of hospital stay (MD: -2.349 days; 95%CI: -2.740 to -1.958) and costs (MD: -$639.064; 95%CI:: -933.850 to -344.278) in all the surgery patients included in the review compared with traditional p
