Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Quality of Life; Complex Gastrointestinal Surgery
• Interventions: Behavioral: Interventions to improve preop QOL/resilience deficits

• Registration Number: NCT02082223
• Lead Sponsor: Mayo Clinic

Brief Summary

A pilot to test feasibility of improving patient/caretaker quality of life and resilience.

Detailed Description

Our overall goal is to investigate if pre-operative interventions can address patients' and patients' care givers quality of life/resilience deficits and thus improve outcomes.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Preoperative Rehabilitation	Interventions to improve preop QOL/resilience deficits	Patient \& caregiver input regarding 'single biggest concern right now' (modified BEACON buttons) will be elicited. Information gathered by the study team which includes a trained nursing coach and the patient/caregiver will together develop an individualized 'toolbox' of possible interventions to improve preoperative quality of life. Candidate interventions include, but not limited to: Participation in SMART program, caregiver participation in Caregivers study protocol MC1295 (IRB 13-002943), nutritional recommendations (deficiencies, immuno-nutrition), low impact resistance training/tai chi, referral to financial or counseling services, establishment of information sources \& plans for concerns not frequently covered in clinical practice such as sleeplessness, spiritual assistance.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Feasibility	3 months post surgical	Primary outcome is the feasibility of the interventions as measured through the end of study feedback form.
