Prehabilitation in Elderly Patients Undergoing Oncological Surgery – Marcos G. Adriano Jota

Marcos G. Adriano Jota, National Director of Partnerships and Social Initiatives at Brazilian Society of Surgical Oncology (SBCO), shared on LinkedIn:

“I was invited by the Journal of Geriatric Oncology (SIOG – International Society of Geriatric Oncology ) to act as a peer reviewer for a study on prehabilitation in elderly patients undergoing oncological surgery.

The theme speaks directly to what I have been structuring since 2012 in perioperative care in oncology: first in São Paulo and today working nationally in the management of care in oncological surgery, always with accelerated recovery protocols and lines of care for the elderly patient as a central axis.

Habilitation is a key piece.
Preparing the patient before surgery changes the outcome after surgery.

Reviewing this type of work is a way of maintaining direct contact with the evidence that supports these practices.

Too happy for the invitation!
Thank you SIOG – International Society of Geriatric Oncology for the opportunity.

We can do more and better, always!

We continue.”
