Prehabilitation is a program designed to improve a person's physical fitness, nutrition, and symptom control before surgery.\n\nThe study's main hypothesis is that patients with pancreatic cancer can take part in and adhere to a multimodal prehabilitation program during chemotherapy, and that doing so may improve physical function, patient experience, and early recovery after surgery.","This is a single-center, prospective pilot study designed to evaluate the implementation of a standardized, multimodal prehabilitation program delivered during neoadjuvant chemotherapy prior to pancreatic cancer surgery. The intervention is integrated into routine preoperative care and includes coordinated physical activity, nutritional optimization, and supportive care components delivered throughout the neoadjuvant treatment period. Assessments are performed at baseline, after completion of the prehabilitation period and before surgery, and approximately one month after surgery to characterize participation, intervention delivery, and perioperative changes in functional and clinical measures.\n\nData collection includes standardized functional fitness assessments, patient-reported surveys, and abstraction of perioperative clinical data from the electronic medical record. Analyses are descriptive and exploratory, reflecting the pilot nature of the study, and are intended to characterize feasibility, adherence, and variability of measured outcomes rather than to test efficacy.
