4 Dietitian | Expired March 23, 2022

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a program consisting of multimodal interventions in the perioperative period. ERAS programs have resulted in improvements in clinical outcomes and costs. Nutrition is one of several components of an ERAS program and this post graduate course will allow you to take a deeper dive into these nutritional components. Join us for an exploration into the fundamentals of ERAS, screening and improved outcomes, protein supplementation, and nutrition approaches for pain management for enhanced recovery.

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) and its importance in perioperative care
  • Identify parameters to effectively screening patients in the perioperative setting
  • Develop procedures to improve compliance with ERAS protocols
  • Define the most effective protein supplementation for both prehabilitation and perioperative optimization
  • Analyze the variety of nutritional approaches to pain management for enhanced recovery
