Abstract
Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) represents a global, multidisciplinary surgical quality improvement initiative to improve preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative patient care with demonstrable economic benefit. In this narrative review, we outline 5 innovative ERAS initiatives, including an improved surgical safety checklist, ongoing advocacy for same-day discharge postoperatively, the role of application-based telehealth in supporting patients after hospital discharge, patient engagement in ERAS protocols and appropriate postoperative opioid prescribing. These innovative strategies are applicable to a broad array of disciplines; however, our focus in this paper is within the fields of gynecology and gynecologic oncology.

Each issue of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynecology is a complete symposium on one or two timely topics of interest in obstetrics and gynecology. For each quarterly issue, two prominent guest editors solicit contributions on key clinical topics of interest to practicing physicians. Procedures, current clinical problems, medical and surgical treatments, and effective diagnostic aids are all carefully reviewed in original articles. The result is an instructive resource that dispenses trustworthy clinical guidance that enhances your understanding of key areas of your practice.
