The effects of prehabilitation on body composition in patients undergoing multimodal therapy for esophageal cancer. (2022)
Journal Article
Halliday, L., Boshier, P., Doganay, E., Wynter-Blyth, V., Buckley, J., & Moorthy, K. (2022). The effects of prehabilitation on body composition in patients undergoing multimodal therapy for esophageal cancer. Diseases of the Esophagus, https://doi.org/10.1093/dote/doac046

Prehabilitation aims to optimize a patient's functional capacity in preparation for surgery. Esophageal cancer patients have a high incidence of sarcopenia and commonly undergo neoadjuvant therapy, which is associated with loss of muscle mass. This s...
