Ultrafast Track Pathway After Low-Risk Cardiac Surgery Enables Intensive Care Unit Stepdown Within 6 Hours: A Feasible Model for Anesthesia-Led Recovery

The UFT protocol including stepdown from ICU within 6 hours after surgery proved feasible and safe to implement in a carefully selected cardiac surgery population and enabled efficient ICU bed turnover without compromising clinical outcomes. This approach may support the broader implementation of fast-track strategies.

Abstract

The UFT protocol including stepdown from ICU within 6 hours after surgery proved feasible and safe to implement in a carefully selected cardiac surgery population and enabled efficient ICU bed turnover without compromising clinical outcomes. This approach may support the broader implementation of fast-track strategies.
