Implementation of a Rapid Recovery Program in Gynecologic Oncology Surgery: A Pilot Study

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2013
Over 600,000 hysterectomies are performed annually in the United States. Despite increasing use of less invasive approaches, the majority of hysterectomies are still performed via traditional laparotomy, which can be associated with generally slower recovery and longer lengths of post-operative hospitalization. Rapid Recovery Protocols (RRP) seek to optimize post-surgical morbidity outcomes by returning a patient to normal physiology as quickly as possible following surgery.
