Abstract: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a set of methods that provide early recovery with a multimodal approach in the perioperative care pathway. ERAS protocols are widely used worldwide in major surgery to improve surgical outcomes and require multidisciplinary collaboration. Using ERAS protocols means better pain management, earlier mobilization, improved oral nutrition, shorter hospital stays, and cost-effectiveness. ERAS protocols were introduced into renal transplant programs quite late. Transplantation patients are challenging and should be well prepared and followed up for ERAS. This review article highlights preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative important points for preparing patients for renal transplantation for early recovery.
