Ready for Safe Cancer Treatment (RESET): A comprehensive perioperative program for surgical patients
Official title: Comprehensive Tool to Improve the Quality and Optimize Hospitalization of Oncological Surgery Patients Implemented for Timely, Safe Discharge From Hospital - Ready for Safe Cancer Treatment RESET, Consisting of a Standardized Sequence of Processes -From Prehabilitation, Therapeutic Team/Patient/Family Advanced Communication, Early Rehabilitation Protocol, Followed by Individual Transitional Care Program, Dedicated to Oncology Network Hospitals
Run by Regional Specialist Hospital in Wroclaw · NCT07727876 · Data updated 2026-11-12
The RESET program tests a structured, multidisciplinary perioperative plan to improve safety and recovery for adults having planned cancer surgery and older adults having planned non cancer-related surgery.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults (18+) planned for radical cancer surgery or adults aged 70+ planned for non-oncological surgery under general anesthesia who consent to participate.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with short expected follow-up, non-surgical plans, or contraindications to perioperative multimodal care may derive little or no benefit.

What this trial studies
This randomised, two-center study compares the RESET multimodal perioperative care pathway with standard perioperative care. It includes adults undergoing planned oncologic surgery and adults aged 70+ undergoing planned non-oncologic surgery under general anesthesia, with a 9:1 allocation favoring RESET. RESET spans prehabilitation, in-hospital care, recovery, discharge planning, and post-discharge follow-up, organized into four interconnected modules. The trial assesses postoperative complications, hospital stay length, readmissions, overall health status, physical function, quality of life, safety, and recovery. Outcomes are measured within an integrated pathway rather than as isolated components.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, RESET could reduce complications and shorten or simplify recovery after surgery, improving overall perioperative safety and discharge readiness.
How similar studies have gone: Previous perioperative pathways with multimodal components have shown improvements in recovery, though the specific dual-population RESET approach is relatively novel.
