Summary

People who are diagnosed with cancer of the colon/rectum/appendix/ovaries that spreads into the lining of the tummy and some ovarian cancers or people with pseudomyxoma peritonei can often undergo intensive treatment including major surgery where chemotherapy is given whilst the person is having surgery - also known by doctors as surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Fitness for this surgery can improve if people undertake a prehabilitation programme at the time they get their diagnosis. To date, little research has focused on how exercise and nutrition support before surgery can help these patients during recovery. The aim of this study is to explore the use of exercise and nutritional support pre-treatment to enhance physical and psychological outcomes for patients.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Exercise

Standard Exercise Program- Participants will be invited to take part in a structured home, supervised, or both, exercise program while undergoing treatment and for a six-week period when deemed fit post-surgery.

BEHAVIORAL

Nutrition

Participants will be screened for their nutritional health and tailored advice and education will be provided on an individualised basis. An online dietary recall tool will be used to track patients' dietary habits. This will occur from diagnosis until point of surgery and recommence for 6 weeks post-surgery once deemed physically fit.
