Objective  To investigate the opinions of operating room nurse (ORN) on enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). Methods  A questionnaire survey was performed among 215 ORNs in West China Hospital. There were 10 males and 205 females at age of 33.4±8.84 years. Results  A total of 154 ORNs (71.6%) thought that we already had very good ERAS theory but we still needed more practice. Thirty-four ORNs(15.8%) thought that the application of ERAS was poor in our clinic comparing to other countries.A percentage of 84.2% (181/215) ORNs thought the criteria to judge whether the ERAS succeed or not should be average days of hospitalization, patients' feeling, and experience and social satisfactions. Besides, 78.1% (168/215) ORNs selected team building as the key point of ERAS success. There were 91.2% (196/215) ORNs who believed expert consensus and ERAS guide should be worked out and propagandized through academic forum or conference in order to popularize the ERAS. Conclusion  The theory of ERAS has already been accepted by almost all the clinicians and team building is the best way to make ERAS work well.
