Read our Colorectal Cancer research guide →Researchers want to understand which patients are at higher risk for complications after colorectal cancer surgery by measuring their physical fitness and breathing capacity before the operation. This study will help doctors identify who needs extra support during recovery and plan safer, more personalized surgical care.
Many colorectal cancer patients experience serious complications after surgery, longer hospital stays, or slower recovery — especially older adults or those in poor physical condition. Currently, doctors lack clear guidelines on how to measure fitness and lung function to predict who will struggle most after surgery, so this research aims to fill that gap.

Before your colorectal cancer surgery, you will complete assessments of your physical fitness and breathing capacity. These tests will help doctors understand your overall health and predict how you might recover after surgery. The study involves 42 participants and will help create better ways to prepare patients for surgery and prevent complications.
