Prehabilitation for frail patients having heart bypass surgery
This study tests if a special program before heart bypass surgery (called prehabilitation) can help people who are frail recover better and have fewer problems after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been told by a doctor that you are frail (have frailty).
- You are scheduled to have coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
- Your surgery is planned ahead of time (not an emergency).

This study tests whether starting a supervised exercise program before your first heart bypass surgery (CABG) is possible and helpful. If you are waiting for elective CABG and speak Danish, you may be able to join a prehabilitation program to get stronger before your operation.
This program helps people who are at higher risk of complications after heart surgery get stronger before their operation. It uses video visits to support you while you wait, so you recover better.
This study tests whether a 'prehabilitation' program (tailored exercise and nutrition support before surgery) helps older patients who are frail recover better after hip or knee replacement. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the prehabilitation group or the usual care group.
This trial tests a program to help prepare adults over 65 who are having major non-cardiac surgery. It focuses on those who are frail and may need extra support before and after the operation.
This study is for people who are getting ready for heart surgery and want to follow a program that helps them prepare and recover. It tests a seamless approach from before surgery through rehabilitation, focusing on exercise and support.
This study tests a 'prehabilitation' program — gentle exercise and health support before surgery — to see if it can help older adults feel stronger and less frail before going into a planned operation. It is for people 50+ who are a bit frail but can still walk.
