Summary
This study follows 600 patients aged 80 and older who are having planned surgery requiring a hospital stay. Researchers will ask patients to fill out a questionnaire about their recovery before surgery and at several points afterward. The goal is to understand recovery from the patient's own perspective, not just through medical records.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors better understand and improve recovery for elderly patients after surgery by focusing on what matters most to them.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly change care. Results may not apply to all older adults or surgeries.
As listed by the trial registrant
