Abstract
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS®) is a multimodal, multidisciplinary care and recovery protocol designed to facilitate faster recovery for patients undergoing surgery during the perioperative period. These programs aim to encourage an earlier return to normal activities by reducing complications. While ERAS® protocols have become standard practice in many surgical specialties, their application in the transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVI) procedure is relatively recent. TAVI patients are often high-risk and medically fragile. We believe that managing these patients with a multidisciplinary approach, such as the ERAS® protocol, during the preoperative and postoperative periods will reduce morbidity and mortality, enhance patient satisfaction, and lower hospital costs.
