Summary

This study looks at whether a short, low-intensity exercise test called SHAPE-HF can be used before surgery in adults over 60. The goal is to see if it's practical and if results relate to recovery and complications after surgery. No treatment is given—just one 35-minute visit and a follow-up call.
