1Sağlık Bilimleri Üniversitesi Bakırköy Prof. Dr. Mazhar Osman Ruh Sağlığı ve Sinir Hastalıkları Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi, Beyin ve Sinir Cerrahisi Kliniği, İstanbul
ERAS (Enhanced recovery after surgery) protocols consist of guidelines that have been used for more than 20 years, based on
person-centered patient care and prepared in line with the recommendations of scientific evidence-based clinical studies. The
studies have shown that the use of ERAS protocols in the perioperative process reduces the rates of postoperative complications,
reduces health care expenditures, and increases the rate of early discharge. In the literature, it has been observed that although
there are many studies in which ERAS protocols are used, especially in general surgery practice, there are a limited number of
studies in the field of neurosurgery. In this review, the limited literature on using ERAS protocols in neurosurgery was reviewed and
discussed in our article.
