Abstract
(1) Introduction: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols can create a cultural shift that will benefit patients by significantly reducing patient length of stay when compared to an equivalent group of surgical patients not following an ERAS protocol. (2) Methods: In this retrospective study of 2236 patients in a multi-center, community-based healthcare system, matching was performed based on a multitude of variables related to demographics, comorbidities, and surgical outcomes across seven ERAS protocols. These cohorts were then compared pre and post ERAS protocol implementation. (3) Results: ERAS protocols significantly reduced hospital length of stay from 3.0 days to 2.1 days (p <0.0001). Additional significant outcomes included reductions in opioid consumption from 40 morphine milligram equivalents (MMEs) to 20 MMEs (p <0.001) and decreased pain scores on postoperative day zero (POD 0), postoperative day one (POD 1), and postoperative day two (POD 2) when stratified into mild, moderate, and severe pain (p <0.001 on all three days). (4) Conclusions: ERAS protocols aggregately reduce hospital length of stay, pain scores, and opioid consumption.
1. Introduction
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols are evidence-based, multidisciplinary and collaborative approaches to perioperative care that provide transformative plans for minimizing pain, reducing opioid administration, expediting patient recovery, and decreasing perioperative complications and hospital length of stay [1,2,3].
ERAS initiatives are important in providing safe care and increasing patient satisfaction in hospital systems [1,2,3]. Successful implementation involves collaboration between anesthesiology, surgery, nursing teams, and many other hospital professionals who agree upon and implement a number of perioperative interventions into an evidence-based protocol [4,5,6,7]. ERAS programs start with patient education. In the preoperative period, education targets expectations about surgery and encourages patient participation in their care [8,9]. Preoperative education also emphasizes the importance of preoperative hydration, focusing on up-to-date fasting guidelines, and describes the administration of non-opioid analgesics throughout the perioperative period [10,11,12]. Intraoperatively, providers administer multimodal non-opioid analgesics and multimodal nausea and vomiting prophylactics, maintain normothermia and euvolemia, and administer regional anesthetic blocks with local anesthetics to improve and reduce pain [11,12,13,14]. In the postoperative setting, early nutrition and mobilization, continuation of multimodal non-opioid analgesics, and early removal of drains, catheters, and tubes aid in further expeditious recovery [11,12,13].
There are numerous studies that have been published previously describing success of individual ERAS protocols in multiple surgical subspecialties both in academic and community-based practices across the United States [15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23]. There are also several meta-analyses published of ERAS programs in a variety of surgical subspecialties in community-based and academic institutions across the world, which suggest a reduction in length of stay, opioid use, complications, and cost [1,2,3,24,25]. However, none provide a pooled analysis from one entire community-based healthcare system.
In this retrospective study, the investigators compared the ERAS pre-implementation and post-implementation aggregate length of stay, maximum pain scores, and total opioid usage (MMEs) among seven surgical procedures. We hypothesize that in a multi-center community-based health system, the aggregate length of stay among seven surgical subspecialties would be significantly reduced after ERAS implementation. In addition, we hypothesize that the addition of these customized ERAS protocols in a community healthcare system would result in a reduction in patient pain scores and opioid usage in the postoperative period.
2. Materials and Methods
The ERAS program at Endeavor Health (a four-hospital community-based healthcare system in Chicago, IL at the time of the study) was created between 2016 and 2021 and involved seven unique ERAS protocols: colorectal, ventral hernia, implant-based mastectomy, Cesarean section, open abdominal hysterectomy, prostatectomy, and hepatobiliary surgeries. This study received Endeavor Health Institutional Review Board approval, and written informed consent was waived, given the retrospective design.
The Endeavor Health ERAS protocols have three distinct phases during the perioperative period: preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative. In the preoperative phase, the main interventions include patient education and medical optimization, up-to-date preoperative fasting guidelines and carbohydrate loading, elimination of mechanical bowel preps, multimodal non-opioid analgesic premedications, and thromboembolic and antimicrobial prophylaxis. During the intraoperative phase, there is an emphasis on multimodal, non-opioid analgesics and antiemetics, regional anesthesia techniques are utilized, patients are kept normothermic and euvolemic, and drain, catheter, and nasogastric-tube usage is minimized. The postoperative components focus on early mobilization and ambulation, early nutrition, and continuation of multimodal, non-opioid analgesics.
This study includes data collected pre and post implementation for each individual ERAS protocol. The pre-ERAS cohort in this study consists of patients who underwent surgery approximately one to two years before the implementation of each individual ERAS protocol, while the ERAS cohort consists of patients in each group from July 2021 to June 2022 after all ERAS protocols were implemented (Table 1). Additionally, during the time frame of ERAS data collection, the total volume of surgical patients participating in ERAS protocols at Endeavor was at its highest. Data were derived from an electronic Endeavor Health data warehouse system that facilitated individual outcome-based study endpoints. Chart review was relied upon to validate individual outlier data points. Pre-ERAS implementation data were collected retrospectively, and ERAS data were collected prospectively at the time of enrollment in the program.
Table 1.
Data Collection Time Frame.
Patients were matched based on the following variables: type of surgery, age, gender, BMI, ASA class, kidney disease *, liver disease *, chronic opioid use/abuse *, chronic pain *, cardiovascular disease *, respiratory disease *, neurologic disease *, procedure time, ICU admission, return to OR on same admission, return to OR within 30 days, discharge location, and hospital readmission.
The study’s primary outcome was the comparative aggregate length of stay between the pre-ERAS and ERAS cohorts. The secondary outcomes comparing the aggregate of the two cohorts were as follows: (1) total postoperative opioid consumption in the hospital measured in morphine milligram equivalents (MMEs), (2) the proportion of patients that received no postoperative opioids, (3) maximum pain score on postoperative day 0 (POD 0), (4) maximum pain score on POD 1 (5) maximum pain score on POD 2 and (6) the number of patients who met mild pain scores (0–3/10) on postoperative days 0–2. Pain scores are recorded in the EMR by use of a numeric pain scale of 0–10.

Statistical Analysis
Patient characteristics were compared between pre-ERAS and ERAS groups using Chi-square test for categorical variables and Wilcoxon rank sum test for continuous variables, and were presented as median with interquartile range. A propensity score was estimated by fitting a logistic regression model which adjusted for type of surgery, gender, age, BMI, ASA class, kidney disease *, liver disease *, chronic opioid use/abuse *, chronic pain *, cardiovascular disease *, respiratory disease *, neurologic disease *, procedure time, ICU admission, return to OR on same admission, return to OR within 30 days, discharge location, and hospital readmission. One-to-one pair matching between the two groups was performed by nearest-neighbor matching without replacement. Covariate balances before and after matching were checked by comparison of standardized mean difference (SMD). A SMD < 0.1 was considered to indicate a proper balance between the two groups. All tests were 2-tailed and p < 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. All analyses were performed with the SAS statistical package (version 9.4, SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA).
3. Results
This retrospective study analyzed a total of 2236 patients who underwent seven different surgical specialty cases during the time intervals of interest. A total of 798 surgical patients were included in the pre-ERAS group, a cohort of patients pooled from the year prior to implementation of each individual ERAS protocol. Additionally, a total of 1438 patients were included in the ERAS group.
After propensity score matching based on demographic and clinical characteristics, a total of 1324 patients were included in the analysis between the pre-ERAS (n = 662) and ERAS (n = 662) groups. Table 2 suggests that all demographic and clinical characteristics were not statistically significant between groups. In addition, there were no differences in discharge location or hospital readmission rates.

Cohort Demographics.
Table 3 outlines numerical and distributional differences in length of stay between pre-ERAS and ERAS groups. The median length of stay in the pre-ERAS group was 3.0 days compared to 2.1 days in the ERAS group (p < 0.0001). Additionally, based on distributional differences in length of stay (p < 0.0001), patients were more likely to be discharged in less than 3 days in the ERAS group when compared to pre-ERAS.

Length of Stay.
Table 4 demonstrates the ERAS group patients consumed fewer opioids in hospital compared to the pre-ERAS group, as measured by MMEs (40 vs. 20, p < 0.0001). Distributional differences in maximum pain scores were found to be statistically significant between the two groups on POD 0 (p < 0.0001), POD 1 (p < 0.0001), and POD 2 (p < 0.0001). An increased number of patients in the ERAS group experienced mild pain (0–3/10) as opposed to moderate or severe pain on POD 0 (p< 0.0001), POD 1 (p < 0.0001), and POD 2 (p< 0.0001) when compared to pre-ERAS patients. Similarly, there was a statistically significant reduction in median pain scores in the ERAS group on POD 0 (7 vs. 6, p < 0.0001), POD 1 (6 vs. 5, p < 0.0001), and POD 2 (6 vs. 5, p = 0.0004).

4. Discussion
This retrospective study demonstrates the positive impact of implementation of multiple ERAS protocols at a multi-specialty, community-based hospital system. By investigating seven surgical specialties, this study provides a comprehensive and real-life analysis of the impact of ERAS implementation in aggregate. The pooled ERAS data clearly show a statistically significant reduction in length of stay by approximately one day. This study also suggests a reduction in opioid consumption by 50% and the achievement of more patients who experienced mild pain versus moderate or severe pain on POD 0–3.
A 50% reduction in opioid consumption using the current ERAS techniques appears to be one major step in curbing the opioid-dependence epidemic. Alarmingly, approximately 7% of all surgical patients in the US develop opioid dependence after surgery [26]. Research also suggests that patients who have high requirement for opioids as an inpatient utilize large quantities of opioids after discharge as well [27]. Because of improved perioperative pain techniques, opioid usage was minimized with multiple ERAS protocol implementations in this multi-specialty community-based hospital system. In addition, ERAS patients in this study experienced a subjective reduction in pain in the first three postoperative days, suggesting that patients’ pain was better controlled overall.
Another benefit of development of an ERAS program in multiple surgical subspecialties in a community hospital system is reduction in hospital length of stay. The one-day aggregate reduction in hospital length of stay in this study could mean millions of dollars of savings for hospitals and patients over time. According to the Kaiser Family Foundation, an average cost of a day in the hospital is approximately USD 3000 [28]. If all of the non-ERAS patients in this trial were converted into ERAS patients, we could potentially expect a cost savings of USD 1,986,000 annually. In a healthcare era where value-based care is a priority, this cost savings appears worth the upstart costs of any ERAS program among a variety of surgical specialties.
ERAS protocols have become increasingly recognized as integral components of perioperative care, aiming to enhance patient outcomes while optimizing resource utilization [29]. The primary outcomes of this study align with the broader literature on ERAS protocols, demonstrating significant reductions in hospital length of stay [30,31,32,33,34,35,36], postoperative pain [36,37,38], and opioid consumption [37,38]. These findings underscore the effectiveness of ERAS interventions in promoting enhanced recovery across diverse surgical specialties within a community hospital system setting. The observed decrease in hospital length of stay suggests a more efficient recovery process [30,32,35], minimizing the duration of inpatient care while ensuring appropriate patient analgesia. Moreover, the reduction in opioid consumption in our ERAS patients reflects the successful implementation of multimodal analgesia strategies, including non-opioid analgesics and regional blocks. This aligns with the principles of ERAS aimed at minimizing opioid-related complications and facilitating earlier mobilization and discharge [36,37,38].
While similar studies have explored the impact of ERAS protocols within individual surgical subspecialties in both academic and community-based medical systems [4,6,7,9,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38], this study stands out for its focus on the impact of multiple ERAS protocols in a multi-specialty community hospital setting. The aggregate reduction in hospital length of stay, along with the significant reduction in total opioid consumption (MMEs) demonstrates the success that can be achieved by developing and implementing an ERAS program at a community-based hospital system. The consistent reduction in hospital length of stay, opioid consumption, and maximum pain scores on POD 0, POD 1, and POD 2 observed across different surgical specialties reaffirms the effectiveness of ERAS principles in various patient populations and procedures. The implications of this study extend beyond the specific context of the investigated community hospital system, emphasizing the broader applicability of ERAS protocols across various healthcare settings and surgical disciplines. The observed benefits in terms of reduced length of stay, postoperative pain, and opioid consumption underscore the potential for ERAS to enhance resource utilization [29], improve patient outcomes, and mitigate the burden of postoperative complications in a real-world environment. By emphasizing the importance of collaborative, evidence-based perioperative care, this study advocates for the widespread adoption of ERAS protocols as routine practice, irrespective of hospital size or surgical specialty.
It is important to note that creation and rollout of ERAS protocols is a difficult and time-consuming process that presents many challenges for hospital systems. There are a number of roadblocks that may impede successful ERAS implementation, including cost restraints, resource availability, administrative support, a lack of enthusiastic ERAS champions, buy-in from all providers and patients, involved quality managers, and reliable ancillary support. At our institution, the biggest impediments during ERAS development have been resource availability, specifically the need to hire more anesthesia technicians and purchase additional ultrasound equipment to aid in regional blocks, and support from all surgical and anesthesia professionals.
Several limitations warrant consideration when interpreting the findings of this study. First, the impact of external factors such as changes in clinical practice or healthcare policies over the study period could confound the observed associations. In addition, because the data from this study were pooled from 2015 to 2022, changes in the healthcare billing model and economic factors such as inflation limit the ability to accurately assess changes in cost pre and post ERAS implementation. Furthermore, the occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic during the study period may have introduced variables that were not accounted for in the analysis, potentially influencing perioperative care practices and outcomes. This study was performed in a community-health multiple hospital system, and, therefore, the findings may be different in other parts of the world and other healthcare settings. Lastly, the retrospective nature of the study may have led to undefined biases.
5. Conclusions
This retrospective comparison trial highlights the positive impact of ERAS protocols on patient outcomes across multiple surgical specialties within a community hospital system. Despite inherent limitations, the findings of this study contribute to the growing body of evidence supporting the widespread adoption of ERAS protocols as a recognized practice in enhancing surgical recovery and optimizing resource utilization. Understanding which interventions are the most impactful could allow a more focused design of future ERAS protocols. Finally, qualitative studies investigating patient perspectives and experiences following ERAS protocols could provide valuable insights into the patient-centered benefits of enhanced recovery initiatives.
