Effects of Multimodal Prehabilitation on Frail Elderly Patients Undergoing Elective Gastric Cancer Surgery
Prognostic Impact of a 3-week Multimodal Prehabilitation Program on Frail Elderly Patients Undergoing Elective Gastric Cancer Surgery
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 19 Jul 2024
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Research indicates that prehabilitation is effective in optimizing physical status before surgery, although this method may be considered "aggressive" for frail elderly patients. This study aimed to evaluate whether multimodal prehabilitation consisting of preoperative physical therapy, nutritional support, and cognitive exercises decreases postoperative complications and improves functional recovery in frail elderly patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery, in comparison to usual clinical care.
