Summary

This study tests whether a home-based telerehabilitation program can improve functional capacity and quality of life for patients recovering from colorectal cancer surgery. Fifty-four participants will either follow the digital program or receive a standard booklet. The goal is to see if remote exercise and support can aid recovery without needing frequent hospital visits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Telerehabilitation program (asynchronous digital platform with exercise videos)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a convenient, home-based way to help colorectal cancer patients recover faster and feel better after surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 54 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The program depends on patient motivation and access to technology.
