Abstract
Objective: A joint research between departments of general surgery and anesthesiology, aims to
examine the feasibility and safety of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in elective colorectal
surgery.
Patients & Methods: The study included 80 patients candidates for abdominal colorectal surgery,
randomly divided into two groups; group C contains 40 patients managed perioperatively through
conventional management procedures and group E contains 40 patients managed according to
ERAS protocols. Patients in both groups were monitored throughout the perioperative period.
Collected data includes compliance data, operative data, PO complications, bowel recovery as
well as the length of ICU and hospital stay.
Results: The overall compliance rates with the ERAS protocols was 80 %. No significant
difference between both groups concerning operative time. Pain scores were significantly low (pvalue
