Fast-Track in Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery: Feasibility and Cost Analysis Through a Matched-Cohort Study in a Single Centre

Abstract: Enhanced recovery pathway reduces significantly LOS in bariatric surgical patients and shortens the mean OT of the procedure, with no significant differences in terms of surgical outcomes. Furthermore, recovery charges were lower and operative time was shorter allowing for procedural cost reduction.

“…Similar studies are available for laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (11). Furthermore, thanks to the ERAS protocol, the cost of treatment can be cut down, proving cost-effectiveness of ERAS strategy (12). In our experience ERAS protocol is a safe and well tolerated solution.…”

“…The one-stage surgical approach seems to be as safe as two-stage, yet there are only a few studies evaluating these approaches [23]. The LOS after revisional surgery is longer than standard LOS after primary bariatric surgery (4.18 days), but over the years, following the learning curve, it was possible to reduce LOS to 3.25 days in 2014 [24]. …”
