Enhanced Recovery with Monty and Desiree | EBPOM Ireland Highlight

TopMedTalk has recently engaged with a large number of new listeners, we are delighted to have you join our family of perioptimists! This piece works as a primer, it explains what lies at the core of the world's favorite perioperative medicine podcast; enhanced recovery. What is it? How do you implement it? What are its core principles? If you've never heard TopMedTalk before but you are a medical practitioner this piece is a great place to start; if you're already onboard it will be a welcome refresher regarding the ideas we all gather around daily. How widespread is enhanced recovery after surgery and, perhaps more importantly, how widespread are its principles? Are patients living the drinking, eating and mobilising early on and so "living the (drink, eat, mobilise) dream?".
