Evidence-based prehabilitation:
Digital. Integrated. Measurable.
One solution. Two components. Seamlessly connected.
Prehabilitation is well established internationally as a key factor in surgical success – yet in everyday clinical practice it frequently fails due to a lack of structures and staffing. PrehabM solves this problem with a digitally supported, multimodal solution consisting of the patient-facing app and the Professional Portal for clinicians.
What the evidence shows –
and what it means for you.
Multimodal prehabilitation is backed by robust evidence and in active use internationally. The effects on treatment outcomes, length of hospital stay, and patient satisfaction are demonstrable:
✓ Shorter hospital stays and fewer intensive care days4 5 6
✓ Lower rates of rehospitalisation7 8 9
✓ Faster return to outpatient care
✓ Demonstrably improved treatment outcomes
✓ Up to 50% fewer complications – clinically proven1 2 3
✓ More stable preoperative parameters for better surgical planning
✓ More satisfied patients – greater trust and stronger patient-physician relationships
✓ Real-time communication grounded in actual patient data
✓ Higher adherence to treatment protocols through transparent monitoring7 8 9
Multimodal. Digital.
Seamlessly integrated.
An optimally prepared patient means fewer complications, shorter hospital stays (in line with ERAS principles), and a smoother recovery trajectory. Our digital programme handles the structured preparation process during the critical 1 to 8 weeks before surgery.
Prehabilitation works – when it is implemented consistently and comprehensively. PrehabM makes exactly that possible: an app for your patients and a Professional Portal for you. Physical training, nutrition, mental preparation, and lifestyle – all within one system that integrates into your existing clinical workflows.
The 5-pillar concept:
Optimal patient preparation before surgery
Physical: Improving cardiovascular and pulmonary reserves.
Mental: Reducing preoperative anxiety to support patient compliance.
Nutrition: Addressing deficiencies and optimising immune function and protein stores.
Lifestyle habits: Active support for preoperative tobacco and alcohol cessation.
Sleep: Sleep is far more than rest – it is an active and essential healing process.
Your patients at a glance – secure and GDPR-compliant
Patients retain full control over their data and decide independently whether to share it. They generate a release code – which grants you access to their prehabilitation data within the Professional Portal. Simple. Clear. Improved adherence. GDPR-compliant. Fully transparent.
Your cockpit: The Professional Portal — Maximum insight. Minimal time investment.
Your central hub for data-driven treatment management. We have designed the Professional Portal to give you maximum visibility into the prehabilitation status of every patient:
Centralised patient management: Oversee all your patients through a clear, well-structured dashboard.
Interactive data visualisation: Access 22 detailed charts covering key parameters including physical activity, nutritional status, fitness assessments, and patient wellbeing.
Trends at a glance: Intuitive time-based visualisation makes progress and critical developments immediately apparent.
Evidence-based evaluation: Assess the effectiveness of prehabilitation measures quickly, objectively, and with confidence.
