In this episode of the Periop Talk Podcast, host Hannah Campbell and guest Dr. Lisa Spruce explore Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) — a patient-centered, evidence-based approach proven to shorten recovery times and reduce complications. 

They discuss the purpose, importance, and implementation of ERAS protocols, and how facilities can earn recognition through AORN’s Center of Excellence in Surgical Safety: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery. 

Dr. Spruce shares her inspiration for developing the ERAS Guideline and offers practical insights on overcoming common challenges in implementation. 

Whether you’re new to ERAS or preparing your facility for recognition, this episode provides essential guidance for improving patient outcomes and surgical safety.
