We see that phase of decrease, decrease in length of, uh, stay. Uh, but there's no increase in readmission rates. I think they actually decreased actually in children with enhanced recovery after surgery, which was a surprise because we expected it to be higher, and there was no increase in the complication rates, which is also quite reassuring because if we shorten the stay but we have more complications, this doesn't make sense

The ultimate goal of ERAS protocols is same-day discharge, allowing children to return to normal life at home rather than staying in hospital beds.

Quotation
For us, the ultimate goal of ERAS is same day discharge. For us, the most important is That the kid is able the night after the surgery or the day after the surgery, the kid can go back to his normal life, go home, and his family also. That is the most important. Kids, all they want to do is get up and run around, run around, uh, in the, in the department. So why not run around at home, really, than staying in bed
