Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change of Serum Creatinine level

    Measurement of Serum Creatinine level and expressed as umol/L.

    Baseline, 0-6, 6-12, 24, 48, 72, and up to 96 hours post-operatively

  • Change of Serum Troponin I level

    Measurement of Serum Troponin level and expressed as ng/L.

    Baseline, 0-6, 6-12, 24, 48 and 72 hours post-operatively

Secondary Outcomes (41)

  • Post-surgery organ injury: Sepsis-related Organ Failure

    Baseline, pre-operatively, 0-6, 6-12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours post-operatively

  • Post-surgery organ injury: Kidney Injury (Urinary Biomarkers) - NGAL (Neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalcin)

    Baseline, 1 day pre-op, 6-12, 24 and 48 hours post-operatively

  • Post-surgery organ injury: Kidney Injury (Urinary Biomarkers) - microRNA (Neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalcin)

    Baseline, 1 day pre-op, 6-12, 24 and 48 hours post-operatively

  • Post-surgery organ injury: Kidney Injury

    Daily for 5 days from Baseline

  • Post-surgery organ injury: Kidney Injury

    At 6 weeks and then 3 months post-surgery

  • +36 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (15)

  • Body Composition: Bone Density Scan (DEXA)

    Baseline, pre-assessment and 3 months post-surgery

  • Imaging Assessment of Cardiometabolic Status: Trans-Oesophageal Echo

    At time of surgery

  • Imaging Assessment (optional): Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging - Cardiac Function

    Baseline, pre-assessment and 3 months post-surgery

  • +12 more other outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Group A: Control

NO INTERVENTION

Standard Care

Group B: High energy diet

EXPERIMENTAL

High energy diet for 8-12 weeks pre-surgery

Dietary Supplement: High energy diet

Interventions

High energy dietDIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

An overfeeding regime of 135% required energy intake per day, set from baseline energy requirements consisting of high (saturated) fat snacks, added to the usual diet, supervised by a dietitian.

Group B: High energy diet
