Popis: Background: Enhanced recovery programs (ERPs) improve outcomes, but over 20 % of patients fail ERP and the contribution of social vulnerability is unknown. This study aimed to characterize the association between social vulnerability and ERP adherence and failure. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of colorectal surgery patients between 2015 and 2020 utilizing ACS-NSQIP data. Patients who failed ERP (LOS > 6 days) were compared to patients not failing ERP. The CDC's social vulnerability index (SVI) was used to assess social vulnerability. Result: 273 of 1191 patients (22.9 %) failed ERP. SVI was a significant predictor of ERP failure (OR 4.6, 95 % CI 1.3–16.8) among those with >70 % ERP component adherence. SVI scores were significantly higher among patients non-adherent with 3 key ERP components: preoperative block (0.58 vs. 0.51, p 70 % of ERP components. Social vulnerability needs to be recognized, addressed, and included in efforts to further improve ERPs. Key message: Social vulnerability is associated with non-adherence to enhanced recovery components and ERP failure among those with high ERP adherence. Social vulnerability needs to be addressed in efforts to improve ERPs.
