Enhanced Recovery After Injury & Surgery

Nystrom; ERAS Presentation

What is ERAS?

Enhanced Recovery after injury and surgery is optimizing patient outcomes through an integrative, multidisciplinary, evidenced approach to reduce pain, accelerate healing and restore function.

Despite surgical success, patients may experience the following:

  • Persistent muscle guarding
  • Limited range of motion
  • Delayed tissue healing
  • Chronic compensatory pain

Traditional rehabilitation alone may not address underlying neuromuscular or inflammatory imbalances.

Benefits of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery

  • Better patient outcomes 
  • Helps patients with delayed healing, limited range of motion, persistent muscle guarding, or compensatory pain
  • Reduces complications (e.g. infections, blood clots)
  • Supports earlier return to function and mobility
  • Minimizes reliance on pain medications reducing side effects (e.g. nausea, constipation)
  • Decreased costs by reducing complications and shortening recovery time 
  • Improved patient satisfaction
  • Involve patients in their recovery plan

ERAS is evidence based and focuses on the physical and psychological stress of surgery.
