Enhanced recovery in Sri Lanka
Open Access
|Jun 2013Abstract
The concept of ‘Enhanced Recovery’ is changing the face of surgical care pathways in western countries, benefiting patients as well as healthcare providers. The improvement in outcomes claimed would be of even greater benefit to developing countries, where resources are harder to come by. However, implementation of such a program in a developing country such as Sri Lanka needs to be preceded by thorough study of the obstacles to early discharge of patients, and the program customised to address problems specific to the local healthcare environment.
