Overview
Brief Summary
This clinical trial investigates the effectiveness of a remote monitoring program for lifestyle changes in patients with lung cancer related fatigue (CRF). Fatigue is a common symptom of lung cancer and a side-effect of cancer treatments. CRF has a negative impact on patients' quality of life, daily activities, employment, social relationships and mood. Health coaches enable patients to develop and achieve self-determined wellness goals and assist patients to use their insight, personal strengths, goal setting, action steps, and accountability toward achieving healthy lifestyle changes. Remote monitoring with health-coaching may help relieve lung cancer related fatigue and increase the quality of life in cancer patients.
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To assess the effect of the remote-monitoring program on patient reported fatigue by administering the Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI), Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Fatigue (FACT-F), Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- Lung (FACT-L) and the Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS). OUTLINE: Patients undergo routine exercise using a remote monitoring system (Garmin Vívofit activity monitor, Nonin 3150 WristOx2 pulse oximeter, and an Android tablet) over 30 minutes at least 6 days per week and complete daily questionnaires over 20 minutes for 12 weeks. Patients also receive health coaching telephone calls over 5-20 minutes once a week for 12 weeks. At the end of the 12 weeks, patients complete an audio taped telephone interview.
