The aim of our study was to evaluate the implementation and degree of adherence to the Enhanced Recovery after Surgery (ERAS) protocol in a group of 400 patients operated laparoscopically for colorectal cancer, and to assess its impact on the short-term results. The prospective study included patients with histologically confirmed colorectal cancer undergoing elective laparoscopic resection from years 2012 to 2017. For the purpose of further analysis, patients were divided into four groups: 100 consecutive patients were in each group. There were no statistically significant differences between groups in demographic parameters. The mean compliance with the ERAS protocol in the entire study group was 84.8%. Median adherence differed between the groups 76.9% vs. 92.3% vs. 84.6% vs. 84.6%, respectively ( p &lt; 0.0001). There were statistically significant differences between groups in the tolerance of oral diet (54% vs. 83% vs. 83% vs. 64%) and mobilization (74% vs. 92% vs. 91% vs. 94%) on the first postoperative day. In subsequent groups, time to first flatus decreased (2.5 vs. 2.1 vs. 2.0 vs. 1.7 days, p = 0.0001). There were no statistical differences in the postoperative morbidity rate between groups ( p = 0.4649). The median length of hospital stay in groups was 5 vs. 4 vs. 4 vs. 4 days, respectively ( p = 0.0025). Maintaining high compliance with the ERAS protocol is possible, despite the slight decrease that occurs within a few years after its implementation. This decrease in compliance does not affect short-term results, which are comparable to those shortly after overcoming the learning curve.
