Summary

This study, titled: Telerehabilitation in Oncology Patients: Optimization of Prehabilitation and Rehabilitation Post-Colorectal Resection. Is a randomized clinical trial conducted at the Royo Villanova Hospital in Zaragoza, Spain. It aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a tele-rehabilitation program in enhancing functional capacity and quality of life for patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a highly prevalent malignant tumor that significantly impacts global health and patients\' quality of life, particularly after surgery. Prehabilitation and postoperative rehabilitation are crucial for recovery, and telerehabilitation offers a promising alternative to improve outcomes in CRC patients.
