Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols are multimodal perioperative care pathways designed to achieve early recovery after surgical procedures by maintaining preoperative organ function and reducing the profound stress response following surgery. The principle of ERAS is to optimize the patient's health before surgery, minimize stress to the body, and restore function to normal rapidly by taking steps before, during, and after surgery, to decrease the length of stay in the hospital, reduce recovery time, prevent complications, readmissions, same day discharge (SDD) and patient's satisfaction. The aim of this study is to introduce the ERAS recommendations into the management of gynaecological surgical procedures in compared to conventional procedures. After taking permission from Institutional Review Board (IRB) of BSMMU, the proposed study will be started. After taking informed written consent and matching eligibility criteria, a total 160 patients will be selected in this prospective randomized control study. This study will be conducted in the Department of gynecological oncology, BSMMU for two years from April 2024 to March 2026. There will be two group in this study, patients of Group A will be selected for ERAS protocol from preoperative to postoperative event up to follow up. Patients of Group B will be selected for conventional method. Outcome of both procedure in terms of hospital stay, costs, requirement of analgesia and complications will be compared. Statistical analyses of the results will be obtained by using window-based computer software devised with Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS-25).
