Follow your prehabilitation program anywhere you want

Remote monitoring and exercise prescription with limited face-to-face consultations

How does it work?

Most prehabilitation programs include a combination of physical activity counselling, supervised exercise training, nutritional optimization and psychological support.

Physical activity

Regular physical activity is crucial for patients’ recovery after surgery. With Surgifit, you can keep track of your planned activities during prehabilitation and monitor your progress. Physical activities to conduct during prehabilitation include but are not limited to brisk walks, household chores, climbing stairs, etc. In addition, an exercise-based program supervised at the hospital or local fitness club can be prescribed in selected cases.

Nutritional optimization

Based on the type of surgery and your nutritional profile, you will have access to an individualized plan supervised by a registered nutritionist or receive generic tips on healthy eating before surgery. Thanks to Surgifit, you will be able to monitor your progress and keep track of your nutritional goals during prehabilitation.

Psychological support

Surgery is a stressful event. Psychological support in the form of relaxation techniques and cognitive-behavioural therapy is important to keep you grounded and focused on your goals during prehabilitation. Surgifit will help you cope with your feelings regarding surgery by allowing you to perform mindfulness exercises at the comfortability of your home and at your own pace.
