Preoperative Optimisation of Modifiable Risk Factors in Surgery of the Pancreas

Investigating Preoperative Optimization in Pancreatic Surgery Patients

Recruiting
18 years and older
All
Phase N/A

This study investigates the preoperative optimization for patients with pancreatic cancer. The focus is on improving patient outcomes by addressing modifiable risk factors before surgery.

The study evaluates the effectiveness of a prehabilitation program. It looks at how this program may impact recovery time and complication rates after pancreatic surgery.

  • Who can participate: Patients scheduled for elective pancreatic surgery as part of a curative treatment plan in the Dutch Pancreatic Cancer Group centers can participate. Participants must be 18 years or older and not undergoing acute pancreatic resections.
  • Study details: Participants will undergo preoperative screening for fitness, nutrition, psychological resilience, and other factors. They will receive a tailored prehabilitation program.
