About this trial

The basic concept of prehabilitation is to increase the functional capacity of the individual to withstand an expected injury. It embodies the idea of being proactive against the common reactive approach of rehabilitation. While the initial prehabilitation model was limited to physical training, it has now evolved into a multimodal entity that includes nutritional optimisation, psychosocial preparation and smoking cessation in addition to exercise programmes. In the last decade, there has been an increasing effort to coincide prehabilitation with surgery, as surgery is rightly perceived as a stressor for human structural and physiological functions.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

patients' activities of daily living

Patients' daily living activities will be assessed according to the Katz Daily Living Activities Scale. Those with high scores will be shown to have better daily living activities. scale name: Katz activities of daily living. 6 is the highest score and 0 is the lowest. A score of 6 means completely independent.

Time frame
It will be measured one month after the surgery. The date may vary depending on the patient.
2

functional capacity

Patients' functional capacities will be assessed using the Duke Activity Scale. Those with high scores will be confirmed to have better physical and functional capacities. scale name: Duke Activity Status Index. The lowest score is 0 and the highest score is 58.2. A score of 58.2 indicates the highest functional capacity.

Time frame
It will be evaluated one month after surgery. The date may vary depending on the patient.
3

Nutritional Status

Patients' nutrition will be assessed using a mini nutritional test. Those who score high will be assumed to be in good nutritional condition. scale name: Mini nutritional test. The highest score is 14 and the lowest is 0. The highest score indicates the absence of malnutrition.

Time frame
It will be evaluated one month after surgery. The date may vary depending on the patient.
4

Post-operative recovery status

The patient's physical, psychological, bowel activity and general condition will be assessed using a post-operative recovery index. Those with high scores will be considered to have recovered better. The scale name is the postoperative recovery index. The index consists of 5 sub-dimensions and 25 items. The sub-dimensions are psychological symptoms, physical activities, and general symptoms. The ASII total and sub-dimension scores are bowel symptoms and desire-urge symptoms. When determining the subscale score, the scores of the relevant items are summed and the arithmetic mean is calculated. For the total score, all items are summed and the arithmetic mean is calculated. High scores on the index indicate greater difficulty in post-operative recovery, while low scores indicate that post-operative recovery is easier. The ASII is a reliable and valid tool for assessing

Time frame
It will be measured one month after the surgery.
