Perioperative quality of care is modulated by process management with clinical pathways for fast-track surgery of the colon

Clinical pathways (CPs) are increasingly used to improve quality of care. However, evidence if such improvements are also feasible in fast-track colorectal surgery is lacking. This study evaluates effects of a CP for fast-track colonic resections with respect to process and outcome quality.
