ABSTRACT
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the implementation of Enhanced Recovery in Surgery (ERS) in French obstetrics and gynecology departments. To achieve this objective, we drafted an online questionnaire about ERS protocols for cesarian sections and hysterectomies with a benign indication and put a hyperlink on the 'French National College of Gynecologists and Obstetricians' (Collège National des Gynécologues et Obstétriciens Français) website. We obtained 112 analyzable responses. Respectively 66% and 34% of the surveyed departments had established ERS protocols for cesarean sections and for hysterectomies with a benign indication. However, not all of the key ERS items were sufficiently implemented despite the establishment of written protocols, the degree of compliance with the guidelines issued by the French-Speaking Group for Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (Groupement Francophone de Réhabilitation Améliorée Après Chirurgie) was variable. There are few published data on the implementation of ERS in obstetrics and gynecology departments worldwide. In 2010, the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery® Society issued guidelines and a checklist for an ERS protocol. The literature data suggest that for most surgical disciplines, the main ERS criteria are not well known or not widely applied. ERS protocols are still not widespread in French gynecologic surgery departments. Moreover, the application of some of the major ERS items differs markedly from one ERS program to other, which is likely to reduce the level of effectiveness. It therefore appears to be essential to formalize and promote ERS protocols in gynecological surgery.
