Brief Summary:
This is a pilot study designed to evaluate a programme of rehabilitation for patients undergoing elective colorectal resection surgery.
Detailed Description:
Operations on the colon and rectum are major abdominal operations and many individuals can become severely deconditioned or weakened afterwards. For some individuals this can even mean that they can no longer completely return to their usual way of life following one of these major operations. As part of this study the investigators are attempting to identify ways to maximize patients' recovery and to maximize their overall quality of life following these major operations. It is possible that preconditioning may make a difference to patient's overall quality of life, decreased or need for hospital length of stay and decreased postoperative medical complications occasionally seen during these operations, in essence provide an overall enhancement to their surgical recovery. Physiatrists are physicians who are medical experts in maximizing a patient's overall ability to function well and live independently. Investigators are proposing patient participation in an initial pilot study in order to test the question as to whether or not participation with a physiatrist and any interventions recommended by said physician would help improve a patient's postoperative recovery.
