• Consensus review of optimal perioperative care in colorectal surgery: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Group recommendations. (2009, neutral): “Bed rest not only increases insulin resistance and muscle loss but also decreases muscle strength, pulmonary function, and tissue oxygenation.(142) Additionally, there is an increased risk of thromboembolism.”
• Evidence-Based Surgical Care and the Evolution of Fast-Track Surgery (2008, background): “Only recently have carefully structured scientific investigations of perioperative care been performed and these evidence-based studies have shown that many of the traditional approaches to surgical care, such as preoperative bowel clearance, the use of nasogastric tubes, drains placed in cavities, ”
• Guidelines for Perioperative Care in Elective Colonic Surgery: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS®) Society Recommendations (2012, background): “Several studies have demonstrated that the ERAS programmes compared with traditional perioperative care is associated with earlier recovery and discharge after colonic resection [1, 2, 218–223].”
• Enhanced recovery after surgery: a consensus review of clinical care for patients undergoing colonic resection. (2005, background): “In general, if length of stay is reduced to 2–3 days approximately 10–20% may require readmission or a few hours of observation and treatment as outpatients.(3,82) Readmission in itself does not imply an overnight stay.”
