简要总结
Trimodal prehabilitation is a preoperative three-tiered (trimodal) approach to optimizing physical and mental health. It has been found to successfully improve functional recovery in patients undergoing colorectal surgery following an evidence-based enhanced-recovery pathway (ERP). It is unknown whether the same program is effective in patients undergoing a similar surgery for bladder cancer (radical cystectomy).
Objective: To evaluate the appropriateness of a standardized prehabilitation program for implementation into an enhanced recovery pathway for cystectomy patients and determine whether prehabilitation facilitates earlier recovery of functional capacity.
Hypothesis: Prehabilitation will ultimately improve recovery of functional capacity, clinical and patient-centered outcomes in patients undergoing radical cystectomy for bladder cancer.
Design: Participants will follow an 8-week trimodal prehabilitation program consisting of exercise therapy combined with nutritional counseling, protein supplementation, and psychological care; they will be compared to a cohort of participants following ERP care alone.
Conclusion: The proposal will provide insight into the feasibility and effectiveness of trimodal prehabilitation for radical cystectomy patients and may ultimately lead to improved clinical outcomes and reduced morbidity.

研究组 & 干预措施
Trimodal Prehab & ERP
Trimodal prehab includes:
- Guided exercise program at Repsol Place in Calgary, Alberta 2x/week, hosted by the Total Cardiology group. Home-exercise program for another 3x/week.
- Nutritional optimization with a high-protein oral supplement, along with nutritional counseling and access to a Registered Dietitian on site.
- Anxiety reduction workshop and take-home anxiety reduction program.
干预措施: Trimodal Prehab & ERP (Combination Product)
No Prehab; ERP Alone
The active comparator group will be given a home exercise program, nutrition education, and a take-home anxiety reduction program.
干预措施: No Prehab; ERP Alone (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
6-minute walk test (6MWT)
时间窗: Multiple time-points over 20-weeks
The 6MWT is a sub-maximal exercise test used to assess aerobic capacity and endurance. The distance covered over a time of 6 minutes is used as the outcome by which to compare changes in performance capacity.
次要结局
- 30s sit-to-stand test (30CST)(Multiple time-points over 20-weeks)
- Hand-grip dynamometry(Multiple time-points over 20-weeks)
- 10-meter walk test (10mWT)(Multiple time-points over 20-weeks)
- Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy for Bladder Cancer (FACT-Bl)Questionnaire(Collected at beginning and end of 20-week participant involvement period)
- EuroQOL five dimensions (EQ-5D) Questionnaire(Collected at beginning and end of 20-week participant involvement period)
- Godin Leisure Time Exercise Questionnaire(Collected at beginning and end of 20-week participant involvement period)
