Modern Perioperative Care Concepts in Thoracic Surgery : Enhanced Recovery After Thoracic Surgery (ERATS)

Thieme. All rights reserved..

In modern perioperative care concepts, multimodal ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) is a multimodal perioperative treatment concept for improving postoperative recovery of surgical patients after an operation. This is managed by the so-called ERAS Society and through which hospitals can also be officially certified. The focus of the ERAS concept is on uniform patient care from admission to discharge, with the aim of improving perioperative processes by implementing evidence-based protocols involving a multidisciplinary treatment team. In 2019, ERAS guidelines were published for the first time by the European Society of Thoracic Surgery (ESTS), in cooperation with the ERAS Society, for specific lung resection procedures, and these identified a total of 45 graduated recommendations or Enhanced Recovery Pathways (ERP). The implementation of ERAS concepts in thoracic surgery (ERATS = Enhanced Recovery After Thoracic Surgery) is intended to establish standardised perioperative procedures based on study results and/or expert recommendations. These recommendations take into account organisational aspects as well as thoracic surgical and anaesthesiological procedures, with the overriding goal of creating a structured treatment plan tailored to the patient. All these measures should result in a multimodal overall concept, which should primarily lead to an improved outcome after elective thoracic surgery and secondarily to shorter hospital stays with correspondingly lower costs.This review article describes basic ERAS principles and provides a compact presentation of the most important European ERAS recommendations from the authors' point of view, together with typical obstacles to the implementation of the corresponding ERATS program in German thoracic surgery.
