Compliance to the Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) protocol significantly impacts surgical outcomes in the United States, with certain recommendations showing more predictive value than others. Early Foley catheter removal, limited nasogastric tube use, oral carbohydrates, and patient education are associated with improved recovery and reduced complications in specific surgeries. Future research should validate these findings and consider surgery-specific predictive models using individual ERAS recommendations.
