Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The aim of this study is to compare outcomes of conventional perioperative care with those of an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) perioperative care plan in women undergoing open abdominal surgery for gynecologic cancer or suspected gynecologic cancer. Investigators hypothesize that those patients randomized to the ERAS protocol will have shorter lengths of hospital stay, without increasing readmission rates. ASD
