Abstract
Pain management is the backbone of enhanced recovery after thoracic surgery (ERATS) care maps, which aim to save time in the operating room, shorten hospital stays, and reduce pain-related adverse events. We describe a systematic approach developed at our institutions to manage pain in patients undergoing thoracic surgical procedures.
