Brief Summary
Introduction: Successful colorectal surgery is determined based on postoperative mortality and morbidity rates, complication rates, and cost-effectiveness. One of the methods to obtain an excellent postoperative outcome is the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol. This study aims to see the effects of implementing an ERAS protocol in colorectal surgery patients. Methods: Eighty-four patients who underwent elective colorectal surgery at National Tertiary-level Hospital were included between January 2021 and July 2022. Patients were then placed into ERAS and control groups according to the criteria. The Patients in the ERAS group underwent a customized 18-component ERAS protocol and were assessed for adherence. Postoperatively, both groups were monitored for up to 30 days and assessed for complications and readmission. The investigators then analyzed the length of stay and total patient costs in both groups.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
length of hospitalization
The length of hospitalization was calculated from the day of admission to the hospital ward until the discharge
day 1 until day 30
postoperative complications
Postoperative complications were defined as infection on the surgical site or systemic infection, wound dehiscence, and other complications found after surgery
day 1 until day 30
readmission rate
The readmission rate was calculated from discharge to one month after surgery.
day 1 until day 30
Total medical costs
Total medical costs were calculated based on direct medical costs recorded in the hospital billing data. The currency was converted from Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) to US dollars (USD) based on the September 1, 2022, conversion rate of USD 1 = IDR 14,200.
day 1 until day 30
Secondary Outcomes (1)
adherence to the ERAS protocols
day 1 until day 30
Study Arms (2)
ERAS group
Patients who met the inclusion criteria and consented were assigned to the ERAS group
control group
Patients who met the inclusion criteria and did not consent were assigned to the ERAS group
