To the Editor I read with great interest the study by Minnella et al.1 However, I wish to highlight the following issues.
The authors implemented a bimodal prehabilitation program consisting of exercise and nutrition programs. However, have they considered incorporating psychosocial interventions as part of prehabilitation? Psychological assessments and health-related quality-of-life measurements are well established and are important aspects of cancer and surgical care. Hence, the prehabilitation programs should be trimodal, comprising physical, nutrition, and psychosocial components.2

对于编辑,我非常感兴趣地阅读了Minnella等人的研究。1但是,我想强调以下问题。
作者实施了由锻炼和营养计划组成的双峰式康复计划。但是,他们是否考虑过将心理社会干预作为康复的一部分?心理评估和与健康有关的生活质量测量已得到充分确立,并且是癌症和外科治疗的重要方面。因此,康复前计划应为三重模式,包括身体,营养和社会心理方面的内容。2个
