Summary

Prehabilitation includes care for patients preparing for surgery. This is a modern approach aimed at increasing the patient's functional capacity before surgery and improving postoperative results. Prehabilitation includes preoperative physical activity, nutritional intervention, psychological support, cessation of stimulants and optimization of laboratory test results.

Many studies have shown a positive effect of prehabilitation on postoperative results, mainly reducing the number of postoperative complications and shortening the hospitalization time.

The assumed time of prehabilitation is 2-6 weeks, but in the case of oncology patients, the procedure should not be delayed only for the sake of prehabilitation.

Our study includes oncology patients with ovarian cancer who are referred for neoadjuvant chemotherapy before interval cytoreductive surgery. The assumption of the study is an intensive course of prehabilitation during neoadjuvant treatment, which should provide significantly better postoperative results.
