This study tests whether a home-based exercise program before surgery can help improve physical function in people with bladder or upper tract urothelial cancer. If you are planning to have surgery to remove your bladder or upper urinary tract, you may be able to join.
This study tests a patient-centered coaching and preparation program before bladder surgery (cystectomy) to help you get ready for surgery and recovery. It may be especially helpful for people having urinary diversion using an ileal conduit or ileal neobladder.
This study tests whether a structured mindfulness and high-intensity exercise program before radical bladder surgery can help patients improve health and recovery. You may be asked to use monitoring devices and complete questionnaires during the study.
This trial follows adults who are planning to have a robotic radical cystectomy (surgery to remove the bladder and surrounding tissue) to learn what outcomes to expect. If you choose to join and meet the basics, it may help your team compare results and improve care for future patients.
This study looks at the information and support needs of people who have had bladder cancer and undergone a cystectomy. It aims to see how these needs change over time and to improve supportive care after surgery.
