Prehabilitation in Colorectal Cancer
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Objectives To investigate the impact of tele-supervised prehabilitation on functional capacity in colon cancer patients undergoing colorectal resection for cancer and to evaluate the effects of prehabilitation on muscle strength and endurance, quality of life (QoL), executive functions, fatigue and inflammatory and metabolic parameters.
Methods A randomized controlled trial will be conducted. Patients will be randomised into either a prehabilitation group or a control group. The prehabilitation group will receive tele-supervised prehabilitation for 4weeks and telerehabilitation for 8weeks post-surgery while control group will begin telerehabilitation only after surgery for 8weeks. Patients will care with an enhanced recovery pathway. Telerehabilitation pre and post-surgery will consist of three moderate-intensity aerobic and resistance sessions per week. Subjects will be assessed at baseline, pre-intervention, post-intervention and post-rehabilitation. The primary outcome will be functional capacity measured using the 6-min walk test. The secondary outcomes will be: physical measurement, quality of life, level of physical activity, executive functions, fatigue, body composition, blood test, energy expenditure.
