ERAS Compliance and Nutritional Outcomes After Open Heart Surgery
Sponsor: Bursa City Hospital
Summary
This prospective observational cohort study will evaluate the association between compliance with an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol and postoperative nutritional and clinical outcomes in adult patients undergoing elective open heart surgery through median sternotomy. No research-specific treatment or intervention will be assigned. Compliance with preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative ERAS components will be recorded for each participant. An overall ERAS compliance percentage will be calculated, and participants will be classified as having high (≥80%), moderate (60-79%), or low (\<60%) compliance. Nutritional status will be assessed using the Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002) score and the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) before surgery and 48 hours after surgery. Frailty will be assessed preoperatively using the Clinical Frailty Scale, and surgical risk will be estimated using EuroSCORE II. Postoperative complications, intensive care unit and hospital length of stay, and readmission within 30 days will also be recorded.

ERAS Protocol Compliance Assessment
Compliance with applicable preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative ERAS components will be recorded without altering routine clinical care. Each implemented component will be scored as 1 and each non-implemented component as 0. Overall compliance will be calculated as the percentage of applicable components implemented. No study-specific therapeutic intervention will be assigned.
