Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols have demonstrated effectiveness in accelerating patient recovery and improving outcomes. Since the systemwide implementation of ERAS protocols at Baylor Scott & White Health, an annual multidisciplinary conference has provided a review of outcomes and advancements in the ERAS program. This meeting, coined the ERAS symposium, allows providers who utilize recovery protocols to collaborate with national and international leaders in the field to improve the clinical care of patients. The sixth annual ERAS symposium was held on February 10, 2023, and provided key presentations that discussed the latest results from ERAS efforts across multiple surgical specialties along with updates in anesthesia, nursing, and nutrition. A summary of those presentations, which included perioperative glycemic control, misconceptions in pain management, and emerging ERAS protocols in different surgical specialties, is provided to document the system progress.
