Truly multidisciplinary meeting today getting our @PrepareSurgery programme expanded at the Hammersmith hospital. We prepare our patients not just physically but psychologically and nutritionally like you would for any major challenge.

We rarely do CPEX testing and when we do it is nearly always to back up a decision not to operate. I find the @PrepareSurgery programme is a more meaningful assessment of fitness combined with more specific cardiac investigations when required.

Just over five years ago we removed Karl’s oesophageal cancer. Today we went out for a drink to celebrate. It’s moments like these that make my job the best job in the world. (Krishna’s is pretty good too, but anaesthetists have more fun).

Very interesting read and fully agree. Need to be measuring muscle mass and function in our cancer patients
Ione Ashurst@ashurst_ione9 Jan 2019
For some time I have been interested in muscle mass preservation and improvement. See our paper published. Hot of the press #WhatRDsDO @RM_CancerRehab @royalmarsdenNHS @exerciseworks #proteinformuscle

I don’t understand why we haven’t studied and implemented physical and psychological training before we subject our patients to major surgery. We wouldn’t run a marathon without training, why on earth do we allow our patients to undergo major surgery without it? #RCoAWinter – at Camden Town, London

Sarcopenia cut-off points. ▪️Simple to carry out tests that can be performed in practice with limited time or resources required. ▪️These measures should be routinely monitored for older adults in a similar way to blood pressure, BMI etc #StrengthSavesLives
