Popis: | This review aims to provide clinicians that work in the surgical realm with relevant exercise principles and related research as they consider incorporating prehabilitation into care plans. Exercise is a core component of preoperative health optimization strategies referred to as prehabilitation. The exercise component of prehabilitation aims to improve systemic and loco-regional fitness to increase surgical tolerance and facilitate recovery. Studies demonstrate that greater presurgical physical fitness is associated with improved postsurgical treatment complication rates, recovery, and quality of life. The safety and effectiveness of an exercise prescription requires individualization to the patient’s medical history, exercise preferences, and functional goals within the context of their imminent treatments. However, research has shown that many health professionals express apprehension or discomfort in providing exercise guidance in clinical settings. As interest in the integration of prehabilitation into clinical care grows, an understanding of how to appropriately prescribe exercise within a pre-treatment setting is required. |
