Summary

This clinical trial compares two different prehabilitation programs, with no organized prehabilitation, prior to major colorectal cancer surgery. The prehabilitation programs include intensive and coached physical exercise and optimized nutritional intake coupled with smoking cessation, physiological support and correction of poly-pharmacy.

Conditions

  • Cancer Colorectal
  • Frailty
  • Surgery

Interventions

OTHER

Prehabilitation

* Nutritional optimization: A nutritionist will perform a structured interview, comprehensive nutrition assessment, and provide personalized dietary advice. The main goal is to ensure optimal protein intake to support exercise-induced anabolism. A daily protein intake of 1.2-2.0 g/kg will meet needs as outlined in surgical nutrition guidelines. * Exercise: Based on current guidelines and instructed by a dedicated physiotherapist, for 1 hour per day preoperatively to increase muscle strength, aerobic capacity and physical endurance. Intensity will be based on the rate of perceived exertion using the Borg scale, a 15-graded scale ranging from very light to very hard. Resistance exercises will target upper/lower body, and abdominal muscles. * Psychological coaching and support: Performed as one interview during inclusion, followed by weekly phone calls by a study nurse coordinator during the preoperative intervention.
