Core Tip

Core Tip: This study highlights the benefits of multidisciplinary collaborative enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) nursing in patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. Compared with conventional care, ERAS nursing significantly reduced postoperative recovery times, improved disease perception, alleviated pain, and enhanced patients’ coping strategies, self-management efficacy, and quality of life. These findings support the integration of multidisciplinary ERAS protocols into perioperative nursing to promote better clinical outcomes and patient-centered recovery in colorectal cancer care.
