EXploring practice gaps to improve PERIperativE Nutrition CarE (EXPERIENCE Study): a qualitative analysis of barriers to implementation of evidence-based practice guidelines

摘要

Background/Objectives Aligning care with best practice-such as Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) guidelines-may improve patient outcomes. However, translating research into practice is challenging and implementation science literature emphasises the importance of understanding barriers and enablers specific to the local context and clinicians. This study aimed to explore staff perceptions about barriers and enablers to practice change aligning with nutrition-related recommendations from ERAS guidelines.
