| Summary: | INTRODUCTION/OBJECTIVES: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) constitutes a multimodal approach, based on available scientific evidence, that achieves better patient's functionality, reduces pain, and even lowers financial costs. The present consensus statement proposes the standards for the implementation of ERAS programmes to lumbar fusion surgery, a meant benchmark we call REPOC. METHODOLOGY: A multidisciplinary group of experts was set up ad hoc to review consensus recommendations for lumbar arthrodesis, using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system. RESULTS: As a result, 23 recommendations were selected throughout the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases of the surgical procedure. A 29-item checklist was also drawn up to implement REPOC protocols in spinal surgeries. CONCLUSIONS: This list of recommendations will facilitate the implementation of this multimodal approach as a safe and effective tool for reducing adverse events in our environment. |
