11th Enhanced Recovery after Surgery Society (ERAS) World Congress

11th Enhanced Recovery after Surgery Society (ERAS) World Congress is organized by Enhanced Recovery after Surgery Society (ERAS), Noema Srl and will be held from Sep 17 - 18, 2025 at Lingotto Congress Center, Turin, Piedmont, Italy.

Description:
This iconic building once housed the FIAT car factory. Turin is a wonderful city of culture and cuisine in Northern Italy, well-served by air, road, and rail. The Congress President is Professor Luca Gianotti from Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca and POIS, the Italian ERAS Society.

The program will include:

• The ERAS Educational Course (day one)
• Specialty Sessions (day one)
• Two full days of lectures and interactive sessions. There are three keynote lectures, and throughout, leading clinicians and academics will present on all aspects of ERAS® physiology and pathophysiology, including surgery, anesthesia and perioperative medicine, nursing, allied health, and patient experience.

We will cover established areas, debate new advances, and look at the role of AI, robots, and databases in improving patient care and outcomes. We will discuss various aspects of implementing ERAS® in high, middle, and low-income countries. We will explore how our guidelines have shaped ERAS® practice.
