Improving Physical Functioning in Older Cancer Survivors Through Light-Intensity Physical Activity
Abstract
The Move for Your Health (MY Health) Pilot Study is a 12-week study for older cancer survivors to promote light physical activity. The home-based study (no travel required) will test whether a Fitbit activity tracker and health coaching can help cancer survivors be more active throughout the day.
Conditions: Cancer Survivors.
Primary outcome: Time to Accrual Goal; Study Participant Retention Rate; Study Participant Adherence Rate; Number of Adverse Events Attributable to the Study; Change in Self-reported Physical Function; Number of Adverse Events Attributable to the Study.
Enrollment: 64 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 64 participants or records.
