Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of a shared decision-making conference and three-week prehabilitation program on the outcome "care dependency" one year after surgery. The cost-effectiveness of the intervention will also be evaluated in this N = 1400 patient, national multicenter, assessor-blinded, randomized, pragmatic, controlled, parallel-group, clinical trial. The objective of PRÄP-GO is to establish and employ a suitable preoperative case-care management system to improve the short and long-term outcome of elderly surgical patients with signs of a frailty syndrome, improving postoperative quality of life and reducing care dependency by a three-week individualized prehabilitation program.
