La préhabilitation, un nouveau parcours préopératoire pour améliorer la condition des patients

The maintenance and optimization of functional capacities before, during, and after treatment are major challenges for frailty persons as cancer's patients. It is now known that physical activity in prehabilitation plays a crucial role in limiting, among other things, post-operative complications. The benefits have already been demonstrated in various studies, including a decrease in hospitalization duration, an increase in cardiorespiratory endurance, improvement in quality of life, and better fatigue management. It is observed that patients who undergo prehabilitation are those who recover their preoperative capacities the fastest. However, it is estimated that only one-third of patients with access to prehabilitation improve their physical capacities.
