Contribution of Connected Devices in the Follow-up of the Observance of a Prehabilitation Program

Poor physical performance and poor nutritional status increase the risk of complications after major surgery. Prehabilitation is the process of enhancing the functional capacity before surgery.

A major problem is the adherence of the patients to the physical program. A controlled randomized study is therefore proposed to determine the impact of coaching on functional exercise capacity. All patients will wear connected devices to measure their physical activity. They will be randomized to either a group in which coaching will be adapted to the physical activity, or a control group in which coaching is performed without any information about physical activity
