Key recommendations support use of  opioid-sparing perioperative medications  , minimal preoperative fasting and early feeding , use of anesthetic techniques that decrease postoperative nausea and vomiting and pain , use of measures to prevent intraoperative hypothermia , and support of early mobilization after surgery .
Background : Enhanced recovery following surgery can be achieved through the introduction of evidence -based perioperative maneuvers .
This review aims to present a consensus for optimal perioperative management of patients undergoing breast reconstructive surgery  and to provide evidence -based recommendations for an enhanced perioperative protocol .
