Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of implementing the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathway in a prospective manner to patients undergoing surgical treatment for extremity sarcoma.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Sarcoma Procedure: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
Specifically, the focus of this study will be regarding the administration of a perioperative non-narcotic, multimodal pain management pathway. Primary endpoints collected with be short-term patient reported outcomes (pain scores [PROMIS] and [QoR-15]), limb function scores [MSTS], and key clinical outcomes (hospital length of stay, opioid requirements/prescribing data and perioperative complications).

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: ERAS
Administration of a perioperative non-narcotic, multimodal pain management pathway.
Procedure: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery
Undergo an enhanced recovery after surgery program

No Intervention: Non-ERAS (Conventional)
Administration of a conventional perioperative pain management pathway that consists of both narcotic and non-narcotic pain medications.



Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Pain scores [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Measured by Quality of Recovery questionnaire (QoR-15) scale = 0-10 (0=none of the time and 10 = all of the time)

  2. Pain scores [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Measured by Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS-29 Profile v2.0) Score 1-5 (1 being worst and 5 being best)

  3. Limb function [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Measured by Musculoskeletal Tumor Society scoring system (MSTS) scored from 0-5 (5 being best and 0 being worst)

  4. Clinical outcomes - length of hospital stay [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Measured by the number of days in the hospital

  5. Clinical outcomes - opioid requirements [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Measured by the amount of opioids consumed

  6. Clinical outcomes - perioperative complications (e.g. wound complications and 30-day readmission) [ Time Frame: 3 months ]
    Measured by the number of perioperative complications reported
