A new care pathway aims to get cancer surgery patients home safer and faster
NCT ID NCT07727876
First seen Jul 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 28, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This large trial tests whether a structured program called RESET can improve outcomes for adults undergoing planned cancer surgery. RESET combines pre-surgery preparation (prehabilitation), enhanced in-hospital recovery practices, and personalized support after discharge. Researchers will compare patients who receive RESET with those getting standard care to see if it reduces complications, shortens hospital stays, and lowers readmission rates.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- a comprehensive perioperative care pathway called RESET that combines prehabilitation, enhanced recovery, and transitional care
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could establish a scalable, evidence-based model to improve recovery and reduce hospital stays for cancer surgery patients.
- What could go wrong
- The program is complex and resource-intensive, so results may vary across hospitals. It is still being tested, so benefits are not yet proven.
