Costs and quality of life for prehabilitation and early rehabilitation after surgery of the lumbar spine

Nielsen, Per Rotbøll ; Andreasen, Jakob Huus ; Asmussen, Mikael and Tønnesen, Hanne LU (2008) In BMC Health Services Research 8.
Abstract
During the recent years improved operation techniques and administrative procedures have been developed for early rehabilitation. At the same time preoperative lifestyle intervention (prehabilitation) has revealed a large potential for additional risk reduction. The aim was to assess the quality of life and to estimate the cost-effectiveness of standard care versus an integrated programme including prehabilitation and early rehabilitation.
