Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Postoperative recovery time

    Postoperative day patient is ready for discharge, defined as the day the patient has the ability to walk alone, take care of herself, and ingest at least 75% of the daily caloric needs

    Up to 30 postoperative days

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Complications and Adverse Effects

    Up to 30 postoperative days

  • Readmissions

    Up to 30 postoperative days

  • Intensive Care Unit admission rates

    Up to 30 postoperative days

  • Health-related Quality of Life

    At Baseline, the week before surgery, then at postoperative days 7, 30 and 60

  • Compliance to the ERAS® program guideline

    Up to 30 postoperative days

  • +6 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Prehabilitation + Enhanced Recovery After Surgery

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients allocated to the intervention group will undergo prehabilitation protocol (nutrition + exercise + psychological counselling), with individualized monitoring by the multidisciplinary team.

Other: Prehabilitation Program + Enhanced Recovery After Surgery

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients allocated to the control group will not undergo any pre-surgical intervention, except for preoperative counselling, already implicated in ERAS®.

Other: Enhanced Recovery After Surgery

Interventions

Prehabilitation Program (nutrition + exercise + psychological counseling) + ERAS protocol

Also known as: Prehabilitation + ERAS
