From Exercise Oncology Research to Clinical Practice
Starting soon · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Cancer, Exercise, Implementation of Evidence Based Programs, Cost Effectiveness, Rehabilitation Exercise, Prehabilitation, Survivorship
In brief
Building on previous research that shows the benefits of exercise, this study aims to find out how best to implement exercise in real-world settings. The study will assess the feasibility and acceptability of an embedding an automated referral tool and an exercise professional into standard cancer care impacts clinician referral and patient uptake of exercise programming. The study will assess how effective the exercise program is at improving patients' physical health, quality of life, symptom management, and overall wellbeing during different stages of their cancer journey (e.g., before treatment, on treatment, after treatment).
