Overview

Meta-analysis finds prehabilitation reduces complications and improves recovery in UGIC surgery patients, suggesting better outcomes with enhanced preoperative care.

Key Points

  • Prehabilitation significantly improves postoperative recovery and lower complication rates in patients undergoing UGIC surgery.
  • The analysis included 13 clinical trials that evaluated factors like the six-minute walk distance and hospital stay duration.
  • Prehabilitation is shown to optimize the perioperative functional ability of patients with upper gastrointestinal cancer.
  • Further studies are required to address the impact of prehabilitation on nutritional and psychological outcomes.
