Official title
Re-Defining Frailty and Improving Outcomes Through Prehabilitation (RIOT Trial)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This trial studies how well a prehabilitation program works to improve patient outcomes after surgery compared to the normal standard of care prehabilitation in frail patients undergoing surgery for pancreatic, liver, or gastric cancer. Frailty is defined as the pathophysiology of aging or through the accumulation of physiologic and functional deficits. Prehabilitation programs seek to optimize the medical and physical state of patients prior to undergoing surgery with the goal of improving outcomes following surgery. Despite evidence for its importance in health outcomes for frail patients, prehabilitation programs have not been well studied in cancer surgery populations. This trial may provide researchers with more information on how to improve patient outcomes after cancer surgery through the use of prehabilitation programs.
