This piece takes a look at some of the big areas we expect to see over the next twelve months as Desiree Chappell and Monty Mythen are joined in the studio by TopMedTalk favourite Mike Grocott, Professor of Anaesthesia and critical care at the University of Southampton. Could political change and necessity improve things in the UK? Hopefully this time next year will be a "champagne moment" rather than a "sham moment". As expected, the interest in prehabilitation over this year has been huge and the momentum seems likely to continue in 2020.
