Conditions

Bladder Cancer, Cystectomy

Brief summary

The purpose of this research is to validate the prehabilitation program which is defined as a set of interventions meant to prepare the body physically and nutritionally for the cystectomy procedure.

Detailed description

This research study is testing the efficacy of the prehabilitation study which is a set of investigational interventions and also tries to define the most appropriate and effective set type of interventions to use for further studies. Investigational means that the intervention is being studied. In this research study, the investigators hope to learn whether or not this combination of prehabilitation interventions has an impact on the recoverability of participants who will undergo cystectomy or bladder removal surgery. The 5 interventions that make up the prehabilitation study are: * Participant Interview (If one of the first ten participants) * Exercise Testing * Exercise Training * Nutritional Support * Clinical Assessment of Nutritional Status

Interventions

OTHERExercise Training

Virtually supervised exercise training for four weeks prior to cystectomy

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENTNutritional Intervention

Patients scheduled to undergo cystectomy will receive liquid Ensure supplemental shakes for 2 weeks prior to surgery and liquid Ensure supplemental shakes for 1 week postoperatively

Exclusion criteria

1. Scheduled for a partial cystectomy 2. Previous total colectomy, gastrectomy, or gastric bypass, or functional colostomy or ileostomy 3. More than three doses of opioids (oral or parenteral) within 7 days before the day of surgery 4. The presence of metastatic cancer 5. Be undergoing treatment for another type of cancer concurrently 6. Chemotherapy for bladder cancer within 1 month of scheduled surgery; prior neoadjuvant chemotherapy allowed. 7. Pregnant (identified by a positive serum pregnancy test administered after the initial screening process and before the commencement of study activities) or lactating, or not postmenopausal (no menses for at least 1 year) and of childbearing potential and not using an accepted method of birth control (i.e, surgical sterilization; intrauterine contraceptive device; oral contraceptive, diaphragm, or condom in combination with contraceptive cream, jelly, or foam; or abstinence) (Participants will be asked to use birth control for the entire study and for at least 2 weeks after the last dose of study drug.) 8.

Clinically significant laboratory abnormalities at screening that would have resulted in the cancellation of surgery 10. Using illicit drugs or abusing alcohol 11. History of previous surgeries, illness, or behavior (eg, depression, psychosis) that in the opinion of the investigator might have confounded the study results or might have posed additional risk in administering the study procedures 12.
