Abstract: An evidence-based, interdisciplinary perioperative care route and surgical quality improvement project is called Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS). The frequent adverse effects of ε, β, and κ activation such as sleepiness, dysphoria, constipation, urine retention, delirium, and postoperative nausea and vomiting can be reduced by opioid-free anesthesia (OFA). The likelihood of potentially fatal adverse effects such as respiratory center depression and airway blockage is decreased with OFA. OFA Usage encourages quick healing. Reducing perioperative opioid consumption is advised by ERAS guidelines for a simple and quick recovery. The length of hospital stays, and medical care costs are reduced by the OFA procedures. One of the main components of an ERAS procedure is opioid minimization.
