Effectiveness of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) on Postoperative Recovery After Minimally Invasive Gastrectomy: A Multi-center Open-labeled Randomized Controlled Study
This prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter study is designed to evaluate the impact of an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol on the rate of meeting discharge criteria in patients undergoing minimally-invasive gastrectomy for gastric cancer. We hypothesize that implementation of our ERAS protocol will significantly increase the proportion of patients who meet standardized discharge criteria following minimally-invasive gastrectomy.
• Adults aged ≥19 years scheduled to undergo elective laparoscopic or robotic gastrectomy for gastric cancer
• American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification I to III
