Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Healthcare costs

    Hospital costs will be obtained from the accounting office of the hospital

    Up to one month

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Length of stay

    Up to one month

Study Arms (2)

ERAS group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients in this group will receive ERAS protocol preoperatively, perioperatively and postoperatively.

Other: Enhanced recovery after surge(ERAS) protocol

Control

NO INTERVENTION

This group of patients will not receive ERAS care and will undergo a standard laparoscopic hysterectomy.

Interventions

The components of ERAS multidisciplinary pathway concerning preoperative, operative, and postoperative period are as follows: 1. Preoperative care: Counseling before hospital admission Fluid, and carbohydrate loading Avoiding prolongation of the fasting period Avoiding bowel preparation or its application only in selective cases Application of antibiotic prophylaxis Application of thromboprophylaxis 2. Perioperative care: Use of short-acting anesthetic agents Application of midthoracic, epidural anesthesia/analgesia Refraining from using drains Refraining from salt, and water overload Maintenance of normothermia Postoperative care: Application of midthoracic, epidural anesthesia/analgesia Prevention of nausea, and vomiting Refraining from salt, and water overload Earlier removal of catheters Initiation of oral intake at an early period Use of nonopioid oral analgesics/NSAIDs Early mobilization
