Interventions

  • Algorithmic Guideline for Functional Recovery following Cancer Surgery — BEHAVIORAL
    This is a pilot feasibility study to test the clinical use of a novel algorithmic guideline to support patient functional recovery following cancer surgery. To date, no algorithmic guideline exists to support functional recovery as a primary postoperative outcome.
