How can a multidisciplinary group collectively define and maintain what they do while maintaining a patient centred approach? How focused can prehabilitation become? Should personal trainers be more widely involved in perioperative medicine? What is the correct terminology when it comes to expertise in the various areas of your team? Should practitioners be expected to apply lifestyle behaviour changes which other members of our team advocate to patients?

Why is a collaborative approach so important to perioperative medicine?

The historical focus in prehabilitation has been on exercise, how can the insights of psychology and behaviour change techniques be applied to the field? Should psychosocial outcomes and behaviour change be factored into your practice?

There's consistent evidence that anxiety around the time of diagnosis is predictive of post operative pain; depression increases the risk of chronic pain; psychological factors also impact on wound healing and functional recovery. Meanwhile low confidence and depression have been shown to effect outcomes.

How can psychological behaviour change techniques be embedded into encouragement to involve themselves in exercise training in advance of their operation?
