Summary

Patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer are often older and multimorbid, thus in an increased risk of perioperative mortality and morbidity in relation to radical cystectomy (RC). The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of perioperative Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) and tailored intervention in older, frail patients with bladder cancer undergoing RC.

Perioperative geriatric assessment and intervention

The intervention will comprise a preoperative, thorough geriatric, multidisciplinary assessment (CGA) and tailored interventions, focused on optimizing health issues of expected importance in further course of surgery. Furthermore, postoperative ward rounds by a geriatric team will be conducted. Thus, the course of treatment for each patient will be a close interdisciplinary collaboration.
