Subhi H, Manor O, Elazary R, Kaluti D, Ben-Porat T. Effects of a 6-month physical activity behavioral intervention in patients following metabolic bariatric surgery: a randomized controlled trial. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2024:S1550-7289(24)00736-6. [PMID: 39256111 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2024.08.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2024] [Revised: 07/21/2024] [Accepted: 08/03/2024] [Indexed: 09/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Promoting habitual physical activity (PA) among bariatric patients is crucial for long-term surgery success, yet it poses a significant challenge for healthcare practitioners. OBJECTIVES This randomized controlled trial (RCT) aimed to examine the effectiveness of a theory-based behavioral intervention on PA level in post-metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) patients. SETTING University Hospital, Israel METHODS: Forty-four patients undergoing MBS were randomized to the intervention (n = 22) or control group (n = 22). The intervention group received a 6-month PA counseling program based on self-determination theory (SDT) and the 5 A's framework, while the control group received usual care. PA level and self-efficacy for exercise (SEE) were assessed pre- (baseline, preintervention) and postoperatively (14 and 28 weeks follow-ups). Anthropometrics, physical function, cardiovascular, and biochemical outcomes were measured at all time points. RESULTS The intervention group showed greater increases in PA levels across time compared to the control group. A significant increase in step counts from baseline to 14 weeks was observed (P = .003). Significant differences favoring the intervention group were observed in self-reported PA changes from baseline to 14- and 28-week follow-ups (P = .020 and P = .024, respectively). Additionally, Physical function, as assessed by the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) and the 5 sit-to-stand (5STS) test, significantly improved in the intervention group throughout the follow-up period (P < .05 for all), However, no between-group differences were observed in SEE, anthropometrics, cardiovascular, or biochemical parameters. CONCLUSIONS A 6-month behavioral intervention post-MBS significantly enhanced patients' PA levels and physical function. Given its theory-based approach and structured protocol, this intervention could be disseminated to support MBS clinicians and centers. Further research with longer follow-up period is warranted to confirm these findings and assess the long-term effects.

Abstract
Background: Fatigue with obesity negatively affects the motivation to lose weight and causes failure of treatment. So, obesity and fatigue are two related entities that worsen each other in a vicious circle. This study aimed to examine the changes in fatigue levels in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). Methods: Preoperative and postoperative BMI, fat percentage, and obesity degree were determined based on Tanita test results, and the rates of change were calculated. The Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS) was used to assess the impact of obesity on mental and physical fatigue. Results: Six months after LSG, there was a 29.7% decrease in Body Mass Index (BMI) across all patients (45.0 to 31.4, p < 0.001). Significant reductions in the percentage of body fat, obesity grade, and HgA1C were observed in both women and men and overall (p < 0.001 for all comparisons). Scores on the Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS) for total, mental, and physical scales decreased significantly for women, men, and all participants (p < 0.001 for all comparisons). There was a weak but significant positive correlation between the percentage change in FAS total and FAS physical scale scores and the change in BMI% (p = 0.015 and 0.004; r = 0.089, 0.106, respectively). Change in obesity grade and FAS physical subscale scores negatively correlated (p = 0.029, r = 0.080). Conclusions: LSG not only leads to significant weight reduction but also improves fatigue levels in patients with obesity.

Abstract
Diets varying in macronutrient composition, energy density, and/or palatability may cause differences in outcome of bariatric surgery. In the present study, rats feeding a healthy low-fat (LF) diet or an obesogenic high-fat/sucrose diet (HF/S) were either subjected to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB) or sham surgery, and weight loss trajectories and various energy balance parameters were assessed. Before RYGB, rats eating an HF/S (n = 14) diet increased body weight relative to rats eating an LF diet (n = 20; P < 0.01). After RYGB, absolute weight loss was larger in HF/S (n = 6) relative to LF feeding (n = 6) rats, and this was associated with reduced cumulative energy intake (EI; P < 0.05) and increased locomotor activity (LA; P < 0.05-0.001), finally leading to similar levels of reduced body fat content in HF/S and LF rats 3 wk after surgery. Regression analysis revealed that variation in RYGB-induced body weight loss was best explained by models including 1) postoperative cumulative EI and preoperative body weight (R2 = 0.87) and 2) postoperative cumulative EI and diet (R2 = 0.79), each without significant contribution of LA. Particularly rats on the LF diet became transiently more hypothermic and circadianally arrhythmic following RYGB (i.e., indicators of surgery-associated malaise) than HF/S feeding rats. Our data suggest that relative to feeding an LF diet, continued feeding an HF/S diet does not negatively impact recovery from RYGB surgery, yet it promotes RYGB-induced weight loss. The RYGB-induced weight loss is primarily explained by reduced cumulative EI and higher preoperative body weight, leading to comparably low levels of body fat content in HF/S and LF feeding rats.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Relative to feeding an LF diet, continued feeding an HF/S diet does not negatively impact recovery from RYGB surgery in rats. Relative to feeding an LF diet, continued feeding an HF/S diet promotes RYGB-induced weight loss. The RYGB-induced weight loss is primarily explained by reduced cumulative EI and higher preoperative body weight, leading to comparably low levels of body fat content in HF/S and LF feeding rats.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Physical activity (PA) after metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) can influence weight loss, health status, and quality of life. Known mediators to participate in PA are enjoyment, self-efficacy, and social support. Little is known about PA behavior in MBS individuals. The aim of this study was to explore levels of PA and the PA mediators enjoyment, self-efficacy, and social support before and after MBS and to investigate changes over time. METHODS Adults scheduled to undergo MBS were recruited from a Swedish university hospital. Accelerometer-measured and self-reported PA, body weight, and PA mediators were collected at baseline and at 12 to 18 months post-surgery. RESULTS Among 90 individuals included, 50 completed the follow-up assessment and had valid accelerometer data. Sedentary time (minutes/day) was unchanged, but sedentary time as percentage of wear time decreased significantly from 67.2% to 64.5% (p<0.05). Time spent in light PA and total PA increased significantly from 259.3 to 288.7 min/day (p < 0.05) and from 270.5 to 303.5 min/day (p < 0.01), respectively. Step counts increased significantly from 6013 to 7460 steps/day (p < 0.01). There was a significant increase in self-reported PA, enjoyment, self-efficacy for exercise, and positive social support from family. The increase in PA mediators did not lead to a significant change in time spent in moderate to vigorous PA. CONCLUSION The increase in PA-mediators was not associated with an increase in moderate to vigorous PA, but the strengthened PA mediators suggest potential for an increase in moderate to vigorous PA in patients undergoing MBS.

Abstract
Only in the USA, 315 billion dollars are spent annually on the medical cost of obesity in adult patients. Till now, bariatric surgery is the most effective method for treating obesity and can play an essential role in reducing the direct and indirect costs of obesity treatment. Nonetheless, there are few comprehensive guidelines which include nutrition, physical activity, and supplements, before and after surgery. The purpose of the present narrative review is to provide an updated and comprehensive practical guideline to help multidisciplinary teams. The core keywords include nutrition, diet, physical activity, exercise, supplements, macronutrients, micronutrients, weight reduction, bariatric surgery, Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, Sleeve Gastrostomy, Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding, and Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch which were searched in databases including PubMed/Medline, Cochrane, and some other sources such as Google Scholar. We answered questions in five important areas: (a) nutritional strategies before bariatric surgery, (b) nutrition after bariatric surgery, (c) physical activity before and after bariatric surgery, (d) weight regain after bariatric surgery, and (e) micronutrient assessments and recommendations before and after bariatric surgery. Some new items were added in this updated guideline including "weight regain" and "pregnancy after bariatric surgery." Other fields were updated based on new evidence and guidelines.

Changes in Fat-Free Mass, Protein Intake and Habitual Physical Activity Following Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery: A Prospective Study. Obes Surg 2023; 33:2148-2157. [PMID: 37249699 PMCID: PMC10228447 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-023-06650-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 05/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/12/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Large inter-individual variations in post-bariatric fat-free mass loss (FFML) are observed, which might relate to differences in protein intake and physical activity across patients. We performed repetitive assessments of protein intake and physical activity before and after banded Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery, and examined its relations to FFML during 6 months of follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS FFML (bio-impedance analyses), protein intake (24-h dietary recalls) and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA; activPAL) were assessed in 28 patients (4 males, age 42 ± 12 years) before surgery and at 1-, 3- and 6-months post-surgery. Changes in protein intake and MVPA were evaluated with mixed model analysis, whereas associations with FFML were assessed by univariate regression analysis. RESULTS Six-month FFML was -7.3 ± 3.6 kg. Protein intake decreased from 80 ± 29 g/day (pre-surgery) to 45 ± 26 g/day (1 month post-surgery (P < 0.001)) and did not improve thereafter (51 ± 21 g/day; P > 0.05). Seven participants (25%) consumed ≥ 60 g protein/day at 6 months post-surgery. Participants performed 7394 ± 2420 steps/day in 54 ± 20 min/day of MVPA, which did not change from pre- to post-surgery (P > 0.05). A higher step count (B = -0.002; 95%CI = [-0.004 - 0.000]; P = 0.048) and higher level of MVPA (B = -0.29; 95%CI = [-0.54 - -0.03]; P = 0.018) were related to a lower FFML. CONCLUSION A lower post-surgery FFML was attributable to higher MVPA levels but not protein intake. This may be due to the low total protein intake and the observation that only a minority of patients achieved a protein intake ≥ 60 g/day. Future studies should focus on interventions to increase post-bariatric protein intake and MVPA levels.

Exercise for counteracting weight recurrence after bariatric surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2023; 19:641-650. [PMID: 36624025 PMCID: PMC10219840 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2022.12.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2022] [Revised: 11/14/2022] [Accepted: 12/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Exercise is recommended to prevent post-surgical weight recurrence. Yet, whether exercise interventions are efficacious in this regard has not been systematically evaluated. Moreover, clinicians lack evidence-based information to advise patients on appropriate exercise frequency, intensity, time, and type (FITT) for preventing weight recurrence. Thus, we conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving exercise interventions specifying FITT and weight measurement ≥12 months post-surgery. We reviewed scientific databases up through February 2022 for RCTs comparing exercise interventions reporting FITT and a nonexercise control group on weight ≥12 months post-surgery. Procedures following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses were registered at the international prospective register of systematic reviews (PROSPERO: CRD42022342337). Of 1368 studies reviewed, 5 met inclusion criteria (n = 189; 47.8 ± 4.2 yr, 36.1 6 ± 3.8 kg·m2, 83.2 ± 9.5% female; 61.7% underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass). Exercise interventions were largely supervised, lasted 12-26 weeks, and prescribed 80-210 minutes/week of moderate-to-vigorous intensity combined aerobic and resistance exercise over ≤5 days. Within-group effects showed non-statistically significant weight loss for exercise (d = - .15, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -1.96, 1.65; -1.4 kg; P = .87) and weight gain for control (d = .11, 95% CI: -1.70,1.92; +1.0 kg; P = .90), with no difference between these groups (d = -2.26, 95% CI: -2.07, 1.55; -2.4 kg; P = .78). Exercise elicited an additional 2.4 kg weight loss versus control, although this effect was small and statistically non-significant. Ability to draw definitive conclusions regarding efficacy of exercise interventions for counteracting post-surgical weight recurrence was limited by the small number of trials and methodological issues. Findings highlight the need for more rigorous RCTs of exercise interventions specifically designed to reduce post-surgical weight recurrence.

Abstract
Purpose This study aims to (1) quantify physical behavior through self-reports and sensor-based measures, (2) examine the correlation between self-reported and sensor-based physical activity (PA) and (3) assess whether bariatric patients adhere to PA guidelines. Methods A Fitbit accelerometer was used to collect minute-to-minute step count and heart rate data for 14 consecutive days. Total physical activity levels (PAL), moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) and sedentary behavior (SB) were used to quantify physical behavior. Self-reported PA was assessed with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). To analyze the association between sensor-based and self-reported PA, Spearman’s correlation was used. A minimum of 150 MVPA minutes per week was considered as compliance with the PA guidelines. Results Fitbit data of 37 pre- and 18 post-surgery patients was analyzed. Participants averaged 7403 ± 3243 steps/day and spent most of their time sedentary (832 min, IQR: 749 – 879), especially in prolonged periods of ≥ 30 min (525, IQR: 419 – 641). Median MVPA time was 5.6 min/day (IQR: 1.7 – 10.6). Correlations between self-reported and sensor-based MVPA and SB were respectively 0.072 and 0.455. Only 17.1% was objectively adherent to MVPA guidelines ≥ 150 min/week, while 94.3% met the guidelines in case of self-reports. Conclusion PA quantification confirmed that bariatric patients are highly sedentary and rarely engage in MVPA, despite a relatively high daily step count. Moreover, bariatric patients are not able to assess MVPA and moderately their SB by self-reports. Our results indicate the need for sensor-based PA monitoring in routine bariatric care.

Abstract
Individuals following bariatric surgery are considered at high risk for the development of sarcopenic obesity (excess fat mass, low muscle mass and low physical function), and exercise may play an important role in its prevention and treatment. We systematically reviewed 5 scientific databases (Embase, Medline, Scopus, SPORTDiscus, and Web of Science) and 2 grey literature databases (ProQuest and Google Scholar) for clinical trials that evaluated the effect of exercise on muscle strength in adults following bariatric surgery and conducted a separate meta-analysis for studies that used different muscle strength tests. Random-effect models, restricted maximum likelihood method and Hedges' g were used. The review protocol was registered at the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) database (CRD42020152142). Fifteen studies were included (638 patients), none had a low risk of bias, and all were included in at least 1 of the 5 meta-analyses (repetition maximum [lower and upper limbs], sit-to-stand, dynamometer, and handgrip tests). Exercise interventions improved both upper (effect size, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.41-1.01; I2 = 0%) and lower (effect size, 1.37; 95% CI, 0.84-1.91; I2 = 46.14) limb muscle strength, as measured by repetition maximum tests. Results were similar for the sit-to-stand (effect size, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.20-1.01; I2 = 68.89%) and dynamometer (effect size, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.06-0.87; I2 = 31.03%), but not for the handgrip test (effect size, 0.11; 95% CI, -0.42-0.63; I2 = 73.27%). However, the certainty level of the meta-analyses was very low. Exercise with a resistance training component performed post bariatric surgery may improve muscle strength, which is related to sarcopenic obesity, functional capacity, and mortality risk, therefore should be included in the follow-up.

Boppre G, Diniz‐Sousa F, Veras L, Oliveira J, Fonseca H. Can exercise promote additional benefits on body composition in patients with obesity after bariatric surgery? A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Obes Sci Pract 2022; 8:112-123. [PMID: 35127127 PMCID: PMC8804945 DOI: 10.1002/osp4.542] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2021] [Revised: 06/04/2021] [Accepted: 06/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for patients with severe obesity, but success rates vary substantially. Exercise is recommended after bariatric surgery to reduce weight regain but the effectiveness remains undetermined on weight loss due to conflicting results. It is also unclear what should be the optimal exercise prescription for these patients. A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials on the effects of exercise on body weight (BW), anthropometric measures, and body composition after bariatric surgery was performed. METHODS PubMed/MEDLINE®, EBSCO®, Web of Science® and Scopus® databases were searched to identify studies evaluating exercise effectiveness. RESULTS The analysis comprised 10 studies (n = 487 participants). Exercise favored BW (-2.51kg; p = 0.02), waist circumference (-4.14cm; p = 0.04) and body mass index (-0.84kg·m-2; p = 0.02) reduction but no improvements in body composition. Combined exercise interventions were the most effective in reducing BW (-5.50kg; p < 0.01) and body mass index (-1.86kg·m-2; p < 0.01). Interventions starting >6-months after bariatric surgery were more successful in reducing BW (-5.02kg; p < 0.01) and body mass index (-1.62kg·m-2; p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Exercise, combined exercise regimens and interventions starting >6-months after bariatric surgery were effective in promoting BW, waist circumference and body mass index reduction. Exercise following bariatric surgery does not seem to favor body composition improvements.

Weight regain and eating behavior in physically active and inactive women after 24 months of bariatric surgery. Eat Weight Disord 2021; 26:1709-1717. [PMID: 32797374 DOI: 10.1007/s40519-020-00973-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2020] [Accepted: 07/27/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE This research has tested the association between anthropometric profile and eating behavior according to the practice of physical activity in women with more than 24 months after bariatric surgery. METHODS It is a transversal study accomplished with 44 adult women, in which sociodemographic and anthropometric data of eating behavior as well as physical activity practice have been collected. RESULTS The average of overweight loss was satisfactory (> 50%), the average of weight regain was of 16.4 ± 11.2%, being the weight regain (kg) statistically lower in the physically active group (p = 0.049). There had been predominance of emotional eating in both groups (active p = 0.025; inactive p = 0.040); significant inverse correlation (β = - 0.286; IC - 0.317; - 0,005; p = 0.044) between food restriction behavior and weight regain (%) depending on postoperative period; and the time of physical activity practice (min) has presented inverse correlation, statistically significant (β = - 0.311; IC - 0.048; - 0,001; p = 0.039) on the weight regain (%) independent of postoperative period. CONCLUSIONS The physically active participants have presented the lowest weight regain and predominance of emotional eating domain, evidencing the need to model eating behavior and to encourage the practice of physical activity in these patients. LEVEL III Case-control analytic study.

J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10081739. [PMID: 33923789 PMCID: PMC8073104 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10081739] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2021] [Revised: 03/27/2021] [Accepted: 04/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Despite bariatric surgery being the most effective treatment for obesity, some individuals do not respond adequately, especially in the long term. Identifying the predictors of correct weight maintenance in the medium (from 1 to 3 years after surgery) and long term (from 3 years and above) is of vital importance to reduce failure after bariatric surgery; therefore, we summarize the evidence about certain factors, among which we highlight surgical technique, psychological factors, physical activity, adherence to diet, gastrointestinal hormones or neurological factors related to appetite control. We conducted a search in PubMed focused on the last five years (2015–2021). Main findings are as follows: despite Roux-en-Y gastric bypass being more effective in the long term, sleeve gastrectomy shows a more beneficial effectiveness–complications balance; pre-surgical psychological and behavioral evaluation along with post-surgical treatment improve long-term surgical outcomes; physical activity programs after bariatric surgery, in addition to continuous and comprehensive care interventions regarding diet habits, improve weight loss maintenance, but it is necessary to improve adherence; the impact of bariatric surgery on the gut–brain axis seems to influence weight maintenance. In conclusion, although interesting findings exist, the evidence is contradictory in some places, and long-term clinical trials are necessary to draw more robust conclusions.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is the most widely used surgical treatment for severe obesity worldwide. Individuals who have undergone SG usually need to change lifestyle behaviors as a response to the anatomical changes imposed by SG, and patients need to sustain lifestyle changes for long-term surgical success. Little is known about how patients experience and manage lifestyle changes following SG. In China, where SG comprises over 70% of bariatric surgical procedures, there have been no reports addressing this issue. This study aimed to describe individuals' experiences related to lifestyle changes after SG in China. MATERIALS AND METHODS Semi-structured interviews were conducted at the Shanghai Huashan Hospital in China with adults who had undergone SG between 2012 and 2018. Two independent researchers used an interpretive thematic approach to analyze transcripts for themes and sub-themes. RESULTS Interviews (N = 15) revealed three major themes of participants' experiences with postoperative lifestyle changes: advantages outweigh disadvantages; developing self-management strategies (i.e., adopting new behaviors and developing habits, continuing self-monitoring, focusing on health over weight, staying determined); and experiencing culture-specific difficulties in adherence to follow-up visits and lifestyle recommendations. CONCLUSION The data from this study provided a rich description of the postoperative experiences of patients in China. Participants reported that surgical benefits supersede the surgery-related side effects, and participants were able to develop self-management strategies in order to achieve success. However, personal and social barriers, such as the challenges of applying postoperative dietary guidelines into daily practice, may impede patients making and sustaining recommended behavioral changes.

Abstract
Although there is growing evidence on the importance of physical activity and exercise intervention after bariatric surgery, it remains to be clarified as to why and how post-operative exercise intervention should be implemented. In this narrative and practically oriented review, it is explained why exercise interventions and physical activity are important after bariatric surgery, how to prescribe exercise and monitor physical activity and how and when physical fitness, muscle strength, fat (-free) mass and bone mineral density could be assessed during follow-up. It is suggested that the inclusion of physical activity and exercise training in the clinical follow-up trajectory could be of great benefit to bariatric surgery patients, since it leads to greater improvements in body composition, bone mineral density, muscle strength and physical fitness.

Abstract
Despite its important treatment implications for obesity and related comorbidities, bariatric surgery requires several behavioral changes that warrant comprehensive evaluation and support before and after surgery. This article outlines emerging scientific and anecdotal evidence for addiction transfer after bariatric surgery. Other common behavioral changes that impact adherence, weight loss, and psychiatric risk after surgery are also reviewed. Last, recommendations for presurgical psychological evaluation and postoperative support are provided.

Abstract
Nowadays, obesity and related comorbidities like type 2 diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidaemia and obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome are considered one of the medical challenges of the 21st century. Even with the rise of bariatric and metabolic surgery, obesity and metabolic syndrome are reaching endemic proportions. Even in 2020, obesity is still a growing problem. There is increasing evidence that next to bariatric surgery, exercise interventions in the perioperative period could give extra beneficial effects. In this regard, effects on anthropometrics, cardiovascular risk factors and physical fitness. The aim of this review is to summarise effects of preoperative and postoperative exercise, tools for screening and directions for future research and implementations.
