145 ERAS a discussion with Dr Jen Kielty


Listen Later

Hi Everyone,

This week I am joined by Dr Jen Kielty to discuss ERAS – Enhanced Recovery After Surgery. Jen has been helping us with the introduction of ERAS here at our hospital and also shares her experience with the introduction of ERAS into obstetrics at two hospitals back in Ireland.

What is ERAS? Why is ERAS good for patients and good for the hospital? What are the components of an ERAS program?

A big shout out to Dr Chloe Ayres here at KEMH as the champion for this initiative. Chloe has done a huge amount of work to make this a success here in our gynae-oncology patients and without her enthusiasm it probably would never have happened. Another big acknowledgement to my wife Andrea, who as the inaugural ERAS nurse has also had to do an amazing amount of work with staff and patients to make it a success!
