The Protocol For The Prehabilitation For Thoracic Surgery Study: A Randomized Pragmatic Trial Comparing A Short Home-Based Multimodal Program To Aerobic Training In Patients Undergoing Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery Lobectomy
Abstract:Background: Prehabilitation has been shown to have a positive effect on the postoperative recovery of functional capacity in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy. The optimal way to implement prehabilitation programs, such as the optimal forms of prehabilitation, duration, intensity, and methods to improve compliance, remained to be studied. This Prehabilitation for Thoracic Surgery Study will compare the effectiveness of multimodal and aerobic training-only programs in pat… Show more
