BACKGROUND: Enhanced recovery after surgery pathways have become the standard of care in various surgical specialties. In this study, we discuss our initial experience with a staged enhanced recovery after surgery pathway in endocrine surgery and assess the impact of this pathway on select perioperative outcomes and unanticipated admissions.
METHODS: We collected information regarding all thyroid/parathyroid surgeries performed by endocrine surgeons at our institution before and after the implementation of the multi-intervention enhanced recovery after surgery pathway. We compared relevant outcomes for all cases 1 year before (n = 479) and 1 year after (n = 166) implementation of the pathway. We also compared outcomes between enhanced recovery after surgery patient groups with varying levels of enhanced recovery after surgery compliance.
RESULTS: Enhanced recovery after surgery was associated with a significant decrease in total length of stay (9.2 vs 7.5 hours, P < .0001). Whereas there was no significant decrease in all-cause unanticipated postoperative admissions, there was a decrease in patient-initiated admissions in the Enhanced recovery after surgery group. There was also a significant decrease in mean postoperative morphine milligram equivalents (14.4 vs 16.2 vs 24.8, P = .0015), average daily morphine milligram equivalents (25.6 vs 45.6 vs 53, P < .0001), and average daily pain scores (1.89 vs 2.38 vs 2.74, P = .0045) in the Enhanced recovery after surgery group (particularly with increasing Enhanced recovery after surgery compliance). There were no significant differences in the requirement for postoperative antiemetics or in the post-anesthesia care unit length of stay.
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates a significant benefit from Enhanced recovery after surgery pathways for thyroidectomies and parathyroidectomies, even with initial data and a staggered roll-out plan. Further directions include a follow-up study once we reach a higher level of institutional compliance with all components of the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery pathway and a prospective trial to identify the relative significance of different portions of the Enhanced Recovery after Surgery pathway, particularly the superficial cervical plexus block.
