Summary

The purpose of the proposed study is to measure surgical recovery, including the length of hospital stay, incidence of perioperative complications, and mortality at 90 days post-surgery, in surgical patients with abdominal cancer. The investigators hypothesize that this prehabilitation program will improve recovery and reduce perioperative complications via the proposed prehabilitation intervention.
