Brief Summary

Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a multidisciplinary approach consisting of perioperative and operative management aiming at improving clinical outcomes.

This is achieved through principles such as patient education, goal-directed fluid therapy, multimodal analgesia, and early mobilization with help of a team consisting of nurses, anesthesiologists, dieticians, physical specialists, social workers and surgeons.



Oral cancer with a 5-year prevalence of more than 3 lakh is one of the most common cancers in the Indian subcontinent. Surgery is an integral part of treatment and that enormous prevalence along with morbidity of surgery amounts to a huge burden on our Health care system. Advantages of Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) has been proven in multiple fields such as colorectal surgery, hepatobiliary surgery, and thoracic surgery with factors such as reduced complication rates and shorter hospital length of stay (LOS).

Novelty:

Though there are studies evaluating the effect of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery in Oral Oncosurgery, they are limited in terms of the cases studied, having retrospective analysis and inclusion of only a particular subgroup of patients.

Expected Outcomes:

In this study, we expect to find adherence and response of ERAS in patients with Oral cavity carcinoma undergoing surgery by the specified perioperative and operative intervention as an adjunct to the standard of care that may reduce the hospital stay and reduce the complications.
