“…9,10 Previously implemented Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols at our institution have successfully reduced the amount of opioid use intraoperatively and during the acute postoperative, in-hospital period. 11,12 However, the ERAS protocol did not address pain management at the time of discharge from either inpatient or outpatient procedures. Using this previously published data as a guide, we formulated a standard set of prescribing guidelines for both outpatient and inpatient surgical procedures.…”

“…A large percentage of the patients also received an intraoperative transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block which likely contributed to an overall decrease in postoperative opioid use across both groups, as we have previously shown. 13 However, the difference in prescribing cannot be attributed to TAP block alone, as there was no difference in utilization between groups (40% TAP block in PRE group; 46.7% in POST group; P = .373) and was not independently associated with opioid prescribing on multivariate analysis (Table 3).…”

“…However, this did not address practices of discharge prescribing from the outpatient or hospital setting. 11,12 Our institution developed a standard protocol of opioid prescribing practices for inpatient and outpatient procedures implemented at the Prisma Health-Upstate Hernia Center. Initial data from this pilot study were previously published, demonstrating that primary ventral and inguinal hernia repairs require minimal opioids and, though a more heterogeneous population, incisional hernia repair patients require fewer opioids than expected.…”
