Study Summary
Purpose: To compare post-operative functional outcomes in patients undergoing preoperative functional prehabilitation versus standard of care preoperative management in older adults undergoing major elective operations. Hypothesis: Older adults undergoing preoperative functional prehabilitation (nine sessions of home physical therapy over three weeks) will have improved physical function and reduced delirium in comparison to usual preoperative care following major abdominal and thoracic operations. Specific Aims: (#1) To compare the difference in the timed up-and-go, Mini Mental Status Exam (MMSE), the de Morton Mobility Index, Modified Physical Performance Test (MPPT), and short physical performance battery scores in the control and intervention groups at the preoperative and initial assessment timepoints. (#2) To compare the difference in the timed up-and-go, Mini Mental Status Exam (MMSE), the de Morton Mobility Index, Modified Physical Performance Test (MPPT), and short physical performance battery scores in the control and intervention groups at the 60-days postoperative and the initial assessment timepoints. (#3)To compare the rates of ICU delirium and need for post-discharge institutionalization in patients in the control and interventions groups. (#4) To compare post-operative complications
Primary Outcome
Timed up-and-go score 60 days post operatively.
