It is divided into four critical phases:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Preadmission phase:<\/strong> Preadmission is the first phase of the ERAS protocol. During this time, a team of doctors will evaluate the patient&#8217;s medical condition. After a thorough examination, the team will provide nutritional guidance and inform the patient about the next steps before surgery. The medical specialists will also set goals and optimize the patient&#8217;s health before they go into surgery. Apart from direct information provided by the doctor, the patient can find more valuable data online through various instructional and informational videos.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Preoperative phase:<\/strong> The preoperative phase overlaps with the preadmission. Nowadays, consuming complex carbs is acceptable until two hours before going into surgery.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Surgery:<\/strong> Each surgery requires an individual approach, as every patient has different medication needs. During the surgery process, anesthesia, fluids, and medications are all customized based on the patient at hand. The focus is on using a minimal amount of opioids. This allows for better pain control after surgery.<\/li>\n<li><strong>After surgery<\/strong>: This ERAS protocol phase is about getting the patient to function normally ASAP. Medical specialists will help the patient get up and walk earlier, allow them to eat, and use non-sedating medicine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-3 fusion-flex-container has-pattern-background has-mask-background fusion-parallax-none nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling padding-wrapper\" style=\"--awb-border-sizes-top:0px;--awb-border-sizes-bottom:0px;--awb-border-sizes-left:0px;--awb-border-sizes-right:0px;--awb-border-color:#ffffff;--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-padding-top:5%;--awb-padding-bottom:5%;--awb-background-image:linear-gradient(180deg, rgba(153,197,241,0.53) 0%,#99c5f1 100%),url(https:\/\/www.toplinemd.com\/omar-rashid\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/132\/2021\/03\/Request-an-Appointment-1920x500-1.jpg);;--awb-background-size:cover;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1227.2px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-2 fusion_builder_column_3_5 3_5 fusion-flex-column padding-null\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:60%;--awb-margin-top-large:20px;--awb-spacing-right-large:3.2%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:3.2%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"--awb-text-color:#585858;--awb-margin-top-small:20px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:20px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h2 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:40;line-height:1.13;\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Request an Appointment<\/p><\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4 fusion-text-no-margin\" style=\"--awb-margin-bottom:25px;\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Have a question about our practice or want to schedule an appointment?
