Summary

The STRIVE Before Surgery Trial evaluates three pragmatic elements (recruitment, adherence, and follow-up) associated with participating in a home-based multimodal prehabilitation program supported through an online platform. Half of the participants will be randomized into the prehabilitation group, while the other half will be randomized into the control group.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Prehabilitation intervention

The intervention consists of exercise, nutritional support and breathing techniques. The exercise component consists of 1) strength training; 2) cardio and 3) stretching. Participants will be encouraged to complete self-directed and/or group sessions \>= 3 times per week. Each intervention participant will be provided a unique login to the virtual prehabilitation platform, which is the STRIVE Trial website. The nutrition component includes: 1) protein supplementation; 2) nutrition advice to support healthy eating. For the breathing component, participants will be encouraged to watch the video on Inspiratory Muscle Training (IMT) which involves diaphragmatic breathing and coughing/huffing. They will also be provided with an instruction booklet to take to hospital with them to support postoperative conduct of IMT during early recovery.
