FOR GYNAECOLOGISTS

Empower Recovery.

A targeted perioperative nutritional protocol to attenuate surgical stress, support pelvic floor recovery, and accelerate return to daily life in gynaecological surgery.

The Clinical Challenge

Major gynaecological surgery, including hysterectomy and pelvic floor reconstruction, induces significant metabolic stress. Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) frequently limit early oral intake and mobilisation.1

50%
reduction in insulin sensitivity occurs following major abdominal/pelvic surgery.2
Zero
digestion required for free-form essential amino acids to absorb.3

This metabolic dysfunction, combined with potential blood loss, leads to fatigue, delayed wound healing, and compromised pelvic floor muscle recovery. For the patient, this translates to profound weakness and a longer recovery period.4

Preserving Pelvic Strength

Surgical trauma induces anabolic resistance. Standard dietary protein is often poorly tolerated postoperatively due to PONV. Rebound Recover provides free-form Essential Amino Acids (EAAs) that absorb instantly, preserving core and pelvic floor musculature without exacerbating nausea.5

The Rebound Protocol

Rebound is a physician-formulated, three-phase perioperative nutrition protocol designed to optimise surgical outcomes and accelerate patient recovery in gynaecology.

Rebound READY (Pre-op)

Delivers targeted carbohydrate loading to attenuate surgical insulin resistance and reduce the incidence and severity of PONV, facilitating early mobilisation.1,2

Rebound RECOVER (Post-op)

Provides a high-leucine EAA complex that absorbs instantly, supporting mTORC1 signalling to preserve core and pelvic floor muscle mass without causing gastrointestinal fullness.3,4

Rebound RESTORE (Healing)

Supplies essential micronutrients (Iron, Vitamin C, Zinc) critical for haemoglobin synthesis post-blood loss and robust incisional healing.5

Clinical Integration

Rebound integrates into gynaecological ERAS protocols. The clear-liquid formulation of Ready and Recover supports compliance with early feeding guidelines while minimising gastrointestinal burden.6

By mitigating surgical stress and delivering precise anabolic amino acids, Rebound supports patients to regain strength faster, driving better functional outcomes and shorter stays.
