Enhanced Recovery Pathway for Colorectal Surgery Improves Outcomes in Private and Safety-Net Settings
BACKGROUND: Although it is known that Enhanced Recovery Pathways (ERP) decrease length of stay (LOS) and improve outcomes in colorectal surgery, these studies predominantly represent the private health care setting. There is a paucity of information regarding the effectiveness of ERP in the public …
