Your operation takes centre stage. That's why we have a standardised programme for our patients with one goal: to get you home healthy again quickly after your operation. "Enhanced Recovery", accelerated recovery after surgery - a special programme for your operation!
How?
- All specialities help to ensure that you recover as quickly as possible after the operation
- You as the patient are at the centre of attention and are also jointly responsible for your own recovery
- With our Enhanced Recovery Programme, you are actively involved in your recovery
- Good preparation for the operation starts at home - we will show you how you can best prepare for it:
- Nutrition
- Exercise
- Wound healing
- Medication
- Information on
Experiences of our patients
- "The Enhanced Recovery Programme made me feel very comfortable before the operation. I had my tasks to carry out and information to read through. After the operation, I received excellent care from the team and was able to eat and move around without pain again early on!" Mr W., 50 years old
- "The entire programme prepared me very well for the operation. The afternoon after the operation I was already sitting on the edge of the bed and was given protein-rich food to drink. I received all-round support and was motivated to move around, so I was soon back home healthy again!" Mrs M., 62 years old
Key points
- This unique concept was introduced for all our patients who have undergone liver, pancreatic or bowel surgery at Ulm University Hospital.
- Fast-track or enhanced recovery protocols are frequently reported in Germany, but adherence is not met in all criteria.
- Our approach at Ulm University Hospital goes beyond this. Not only the protocols, but the entire process has been significantly modernised.
We provide you with individual support before and after the operation: digital or analogue.
Our Enhanced Recovery Team takes on the task of supporting you throughout the entire treatment pathway.
