REVIEW
Enhanced recovery after surgery, perioperative medicine, and the perioperative surgical home: current state and future implications for education and training.
Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology 2016 December
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The purpose of this review is to summarize the current state of perioperative medicine, including the perioperative surgical home (PSH) and enhanced recovery after surgery pathways (ERAS) as well as the educational implications of these concepts for current and future anesthesiology trainees.
RECENT FINDINGS: Although there is significant, ongoing discussion surrounding the structural concept of the PSH, there remains little clinical evidence to support its development. On the other hand, publications surrounding ERAS principles continue to show clinical benefit in reducing length of stay, cost, and perioperative complications for a variety of surgical populations. In this milieu, perioperative medicine is increasingly being recognized as its own specialty in perioperative care that encompasses, but is larger than, ERAS.
SUMMARY: There is sufficient evidence to support widespread adoption of ERAS principles, although the specifics of local implementation may vary from site to site. There is significant uncertainty as to what the PSH actually is. However, perioperative medicine is a defined specialty in medicine that overlaps significantly with anesthesiology core training and practice and will be a significant focus in future education, research, and clinical care provided by anesthesiologists.
