Eras program implementation in colorectal surgery: A multi-institution study based on the “lazio network” collective database including 1200 patients over two years

Objectives: The ERAS program implementation produces improved clinical outcomes in patients undergoing colorectal surgery. The process to incorporate this pathway in daily clinical practice could be challenging especially in peripheral hospitals. This observational study analyzes the impact of a systematic ERAS implementation in a regional network of 10 Institutions and evaluates the surgical outcomes in patients undergoing colorectal resections.
