Implementation was facilitated by a 1-year, group-based Learning Collaborative curriculum, a repository of tools, ERP adherence feedback, and implementation report cards.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Main Outcomes and Measures<\/jats:title>\n Site-level scores were created based on 5AIFs domains. ERP adherence was assessed by ERP elements delivered at patient and site level. The primary effectiveness outcome, postoperative length of stay (LOS), and secondary effectiveness outcomes (including opioid use, time to regular diet, complications, readmission, and patient-reported health-related quality of life [HRQOL]) were evaluated across study phases (baseline, implementation, and sustainability). Correlations between site-level implementation scores and fidelity were estimated.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n Of the 597 enrolled pediatric patients (median [IQR] age, 15 [13-17] years; 274 [45.9%] female; 323 [54.1%] male), 433 (72.5%) had inflammatory bowel disease. No significant differences were found by study phase in LOS or secondary outcomes, except shorter time to regular diet and decreased opioid use during hospitalization. Patients who received at least 13 ERP elements had shorter median LOS (\u22121.14 days [95% CI \u22122.01 to \u22120.27]) and fewer complications (adjusted odds ratio, 0.48 [95% CI, 0.28-0.82]). Patient-level adherence increased by study phase (number of ERPs: 11 [10-13], 14 [12-15], and 14 [13-15], [\n P<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009&amp;lt;\u2009.001]). ERP integration into order sets and site culture were moderately correlated with fidelity.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions and Relevance<\/jats:title>\n This stepped-wedge cluster-randomized trial found that despite multifaceted implementation strategies, a pediatric GI surgery ERP did not significantly reduce LOS. However, when accounting for implementation fidelity at the patient level, it resulted in significantly lower LOS and complications.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Trial Registration<\/jats:title>\n \n ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:\n NCT04060303<\/jats:ext-link>\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1001\/jamasurg.2026.1382","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,13]],"date-time":"2026-05-13T15:00:48Z","timestamp":1778684448000},"page":"670","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Implementation and Effectiveness of an Enhanced Recovery Protocol for Children Undergoing Surgery"],"prefix":"10.1001","volume":"161","author":[{"given":"Mehul V.","family":"Raval","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Northwestern Quality Improvement, Research & Education in Surgery (NQUIRES), Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, Illinois"},{"name":"Division of Pediatric Surgery, Department of Surgery, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Ann & Robert H.
