Findings underscore the mismatch between patient expectations and HCP guidance, emphasising the need for consensus on rehabilitation protocols. The study advocates for tailored rehabilitation pathways that address individual patient recovery trajectories, reduce dependency on HCPs, and encourage patient self-management.
