What this trial studies

This study aims to implement a self-reported online geriatric assessment (GA) tool called CHAMP for older adults scheduled for non-oncological surgery. The tool addresses the unique health needs of older patients by evaluating key domains such as comorbidity, functional status, and cognitive health. By allowing patients to complete the assessment prior to their medical appointments, the study seeks to enhance treatment decision-making and reduce postoperative complications. The initiative is based on recommendations from leading geriatric societies to improve preoperative care for older adults.
