- Abstract
Fast-track treatment pathways reduce the frequency of postoperative complications in elective colorectal resections by approximately 40% and due to the rapid recovery reduce the postoperative duration of hospitalization by approximately 50%. Specialized nursing personnel (enhanced recovery after surgery, ERAS, nurses) have already been appointed internationally to accompany and monitor the execution of multimodal perioperative treatment. In November 2018 a fast-track assistant was appointed in the Clinic for General and Visceral Surgery of the Municipal Clinic in Solingen for coordination of the fast-track treatment pathway. The results confirmed that a high adherence to perioperative fast-track treatment concepts can also be achieved in the German healthcare system by the assignment of specialized nursing personnel, with the known advantages for patients, nursing personnel, physicians and hospital sponsors.
