BACKGROUND: Surgery for urological cancers is associated with high complication rates and survivors commonly experience fatigue, reduced physical ability and quality of life. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) as surgical prehabilitation has bee...

Loss of muscle mass in the immediate post-operative period is associated with inadequate dietary protein and energy intake (2023)
Journal Article
Hardy, E. J., Deane, C. S., Lund, J. N., & Phillips, B. E. (2023). Loss of muscle mass in the immediate post-operative period is associated with inadequate dietary protein and energy intake. European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 77, 503-505. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41430-023-01264-0

Despite the implementation of ‘Enhanced Recovery After Surgery’ (ERAS) protocols, major abdominal surgery is still associated with significant and detrimental losses of muscle mass and function in the post-operative period. Although ERAS protocols ad... Read More about Loss of muscle mass in the immediate post-operative period is associated with inadequate dietary protein and energy intake.
