Desired Practice:

Our goal is to enhance the providers' knowledge of evidence-based medicine, to review information on advances and techniques that impact surgery, in the context of meeting hospital goals and initiatives such as Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS), National Surgical Quality Improvement Program® (NSQIP) data, and MPS scores. This ongoing Continuing Medical Education (CME) event will continue to educate surgeons and provide new data which may prompt changes in management and adoption of best practices for optimal patient outcomes and more efficient care.

Objectives:

• Identify new evidence-based practice approaches
• Identify and interpret supporting data
