It’s Edelstone-Bendix Day @purplesurg @NorthwesternMed - great Pearce Research Symposium posters by some of the @LurieChildrens @LuriePedSurg fellows

Honored to present our ENRICH-US trial results #APSA25. Enhancing recovery for children undergoing GI surgery. 5y trial, ~600pts, 18 hosp. Clinical improvements! Implementation = success! @ped_src @APSASurgeons @LurieChildrens @NIH @CrohnsColitisFn @NUFeinbergMed @ErasSociety

Incredible work from the ENRICH-US team led by Dr @mehulvraval ! Their national, multicenter trial shows that implementing more elements of pediatric enhanced recovery protocols significantly shortens LOS, reduces opioid use, and improves outcomes. #APSA2025 @APSASurgeons

Great session @ #apsa2025 on parental support for surgeons. Yue-yung Hu and colleagues tackling the issue!

Grateful for the honor of presenting the Luck-Raffensperger Lecture at @LurieChildrens yesterday. And such a treat to catch up with fellow @NCHPedSurg alum @mehulvraval & learn about #OpioidStewardship initiatives @LuriePedSurg

More pediatric teams are using ERAS protocols to manage post-op pain without opioids, focusing on early mobility, clear liquids pre-surgery & family education. Dr. Mehul Raval recently concluded one of the largest pediatric ERAS trials to date: ENRICH-US. medscape.com/viewarticle/mo…

Great showing @nu_ipham summit today - team efforts! @LuriePedSurg @ManneResearch @NMSurgery

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to put pressure on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research

Congrats to @mehulvraval as we invested him with the Orvar Swenson Founders Board Chair in pediatric surgery last night @LuriePedSurg @LurieChildrens ed

Fascinating keynote talk by @mehulvraval from @luriechildrens on evidence for enhanced recovery protocols in patients needing pediatric surgery #2024chncsymposium

Big congrats to the multi-I team including @mehulvraval for getting first CPG on opioid prescribing for acute pain in children! Huge milestone in advancing safe, effective care for our patients. 👏 @LurieChildrens @LuriePedSurg [Link: publications.aap.org/pediatrics/art…]"

Life Cycle Analysis of a Pediatric Surgical Kit jamanetwork.com/journals/jamas… Great work by @AlisonLehane @WynSullivan and our team …

Always one of the highlights of the Congress. The Olle Ljungqvist lecture. This year given by @mehulvraval talking about the environmental impact of surgery #ERAS2024

Thank you @mehulvraval for a wonderful and inspiring talk #ERAS2024

Yao Tian and I bringing a little piece of the ENRICH-US trial in pediatric surgery to @AcademyHealth #AHARM24! @mehulvraval @NQUIRES1 @nu_chsor @JulieJKJohnson

Charesa Smith shares our moves to establish feeding regimens for surgical neonates … building blocks for a neonatal ERAS effort! @LurieChildrens @amirhajjat @APSASurgeons @NMSurgery

Mallory Perez shares our NIH NICHD findings on how to leverage NSQIP-P to nationally benchmark post op opioids - the next frontier is finding the right balance of optimal pain management . @US_FDA @APSASurgeons @LuriePedSurg @NICHD_NIH @AmCollSurgeons @LurieChildrens

Huge props to @mehulvraval…for NIH funding for a new T32 surgical scientist training program. Funding for the C-SMART Program brings together extensive expertise of Lurie Children's and @northwestermedicine surgeon-scientists.
