Multimodal Prehabilitation in Head and Neck Cancer Patients Undergoing Surgery: A Feasibility Study
Feasibility of multimodal prehabilitation in HNC surgery patients in this study is limited by its participation rate of 60%. Addressing participation, a widespread network of oncologic physiotherapists or home-based multimodal prehabilitation by an app could possibly potentiate participation. More studies are needed to assess the optimal form of multimodal prehabilitation in this challenging population.
