Why the study?
Postoperative complications are common after major surgery, prompting review of prehabilitation's impact on outcomes, clinical measures, cost-effectiveness, and surgical pathway implementation.
Does prehabilitation improve postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing major surgical interventions?
Does prehabilitation improve postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing major surgical interventions?
Prehabilitation, including tailored exercise programs, optimizes functional capacity and improves postoperative outcomes in surgical patients, though better standardization and reporting of interventions in clinical trials are needed.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Supports prehabilitation to reduce complications in major cancer surgery; extends RCT evidence for multimodal programs.
