Trial summary

Major vascular operations put the body under stress. We are trying to find out if the general health of a patient and the stress resulting from surgery can lead to the development of complications after surgery as well as increase the length of time spent in hospital. Read more about this study

About this study

Major vascular operations put the body under stress. We are trying to find out if the general health of a patient and the stress resulting from surgery can lead to the development of complications after surgery as well as increase the length of time spent in hospital.

There is evidence to suggest that patients who are frail have a higher risk of developing complications after major surgery.

Our aim is to ask you simple questions about your physical ability to perform daily life activities, assess your general health condition and ask you to do simple tasks such as drawing a clock or walking for a short distance to assess your speed of walking. Our main aim is to identify a tool that will assist us to identify patients who are at risk of frailty.
