Notas del episodio
In this episode, we’re joined by Prof. Alberto Settembrini and Associate Professor Ashley K. Vavra to discuss the application of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols in the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms.
We explore how ERAS principles are adapted for both open and endovascular AAA repair, covering key elements such as preoperative risk assessment, anaesthetic management, early mobilisation, and discharge planning.
The conversation underscores the importance of bridging the gap between evidence and clinical practice, as well as the central role of the entire multidisciplinary team, comprising surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, physiotherapists, and dietitians.
