Prehabilitation Versus Enhanced Recovery Program for Elective Colorectal Cancer Surgery.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Elective surgery is the most effective treatment option for colorectal cancer, however it has been recognized to be associated with high morbidity and mortality risks.
ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) is a preoperative multimodality treatment package, which has been well investigated and proved to be effective in reducing early postoperative morbidity, mortality, length of hospital stay and hospital costs, as well. Still, a good proportion of patients are not suitable for ERAS program, mainly based on lack of compliance and the impaired physical function before surgery.
Prehabilitation Program is a recently introduced trimodal preoperative preparation (training) program, which addresses improvement of physical, mental and nutritional status of the high risk elective surgery patients.
This study aims to investigate the benefit of all efforts of a 4-6-week preoperative preparation program (Prehabilitation) being added to an established ERAS protocol.
