September 9, 2016 updated by: National Taiwan University Hospital

Developing and Testing the Effects of Patient-centered Prehabilitation Program on Improving Fatigue, Nutritional Status, and Quality of Life in Patients With Operable Pancreatic Cancer Perioperatively and Following Surgery

The aims of this three-year study are to:

  1. explore the change of fatigue, nutritional status, quality of life and care needs in patients with operable pancreatic cancer perioperatively and following surgery within 3 months.
  2. develop and evaluate the effect of patient-centered cancer prehabilitation care program on improving fatigue, nutritional status and quality of life (QOL) in this population.
