        abstract = {Background: Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) protocols are evidence-based perioperative care pathways that reduce surgical stress and improve recovery. Limited evidence exists in gynecology. Objective: To compare the effectiveness of ERAS versus conventional perioperative management among patients undergoing gynecological surgeries. Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted at Nalanda Medical College & Hospital, Patna, including 100 women divided into ERAS (n=50) and conventional (n=50) groups. Outcomes included hospital stay, postoperative pain, patient satisfaction, and recovery parameters. Results: ERAS significantly reduced hospital stay (3.94 vs. 5.10 days, p < 0.001), pain scores (3.00 vs. 3.60, p = 0.001), and improved satisfaction (7.12 vs. 6.36, p < 0.001). Mobilization and oral intake showed no significant differences but favored ERAS. No increase in complications was observed. Conclusion: ERAS enhances recovery, shortens hospital stay, and improves satisfaction in gynecological surgeries without added risk.},
