Multimodal prehabilitation, combining physical and nutritional support, enhances functional capacity in digestive oncology patients before surgery. Further research is needed to clarify its impact on perioperative outcomes and hospital stay.
Area of Science:
- Digestive Oncology
- Surgical Oncology
- Rehabilitation Medicine
Background:
- Multimodal prehabilitation is gaining traction in digestive oncology.
- Optimizing patient condition before surgery is crucial for better outcomes.
Conclusions:
- Structured prehabilitation programs are a promising strategy for improving surgical outcomes in gastrointestinal cancers.
- Further investigation is warranted to fully elucidate the benefits and optimize implementation.
