Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Feasibility is assessed by adherence to treatment, inclusion rates, drop out rates and adverse events and complications. The amount of attended training sessions attended and the achieved intensity are noted. The physical activity (accelerometer) and food intake (food diary) are also measured. The appreciation and motivation of the patient will be assessed with questionnaires. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Effectiveness is assessed by measuring physical functioning (timed up and go test, hand grip strength, walking speed/ six-minute walk test, chair rise time test, questionnaires), body composition (BIA/ DEXA) and inflammation (IL-6), before and after 6 weeks of intervention. In addition, postoperative inpatient complications, CRP, recovery of physical functioning and length of hospital stay will be assessed. Furthermore, nutritional intake (3-day food diary) and physical activity (by accelerometer) will be measured. | — |
