Abstract
Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) has recently gained widespread global adoption in surgical rehabilitation. In breast surgery, ERAS has shown impressive clinical benefits and has become an important strategy for improving postoperative recovery and reducing complications. This review summarizes the current application of ERAS in breast surgery and compares its implementation in domestic and international settings across the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases. It further analyzes the key factors influencing ERAS promotion and implementation. It focuses on the fundamental functions of nursing practice and the challenges encountered. The purpose of this review is to provide evidence to support the optimization of recovery protocols for patients undergoing breast surgery.
