Protocol Title: Construction and Application Research of a Multidisciplinary Combined Exercise Management Program for Elderly Lung Cancer Patients After Surgery Based on Social Cognitive Theory
Version Number: V1.0
Version Date: April 1, 2024
Dear Subject:
We invite you to participate in the study titled "Construction and Application Research of a Multidisciplinary Combined Exercise Management Program for Elderly Lung Cancer Patients After Surgery Based on Social Cognitive Theory," which has been reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee of Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine.
This informed consent form will provide you with some information to help you decide whether to participate in this clinical study. Your participation in this study is entirely voluntary, and your decision will not affect your normal rights and treatment at this hospital. If you choose to participate in this study, our research team will make every effort to ensure your safety and rights throughout the research process.
Please read carefully. If you have any questions, please ask the researcher responsible for this study.
I. Research Background, Significance, and Objectives:
1.1 Background and Significance
With the extension of average life expectancy, the number of elderly lung cancer patients has also increased, with patients over 65 years old accounting for more than 50%. Elderly patients often have other diseases, low organ function, decreased cardiopulmonary function after surgery, and poor tissue repair capacity and immune function, making them more susceptible to complications such as atelectasis, pulmonary infection, and respiratory failure. Studies have shown that moderate exercise can reduce the risk of lung cancer, improve cardiopulmonary function and fatigue, increase muscle endurance and quality of life, shorten hospital stay, and reduce the incidence, mortality, and complication rates of lung cancer. The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the American Cancer Society recommend a total exercise volume of 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise or 75 minutes of high-intensity exercise per week, or an equivalent combination. Studies have shown that nearly two-thirds of cancer patients do not meet the recommended exercise volume and face risks of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and premature death after surgery. Several countries, including the United Kingdom and Australia, have conducted exercise-related studies in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery. However, there is limited research on postoperative exercise intervention for the special population of elderly lung cancer patients both domestically and internationally, and there is a lack of postoperative exercise guidance and postoperative exercise management guidelines. Therefore, it is urgent to develop an exercise management program for this population.
1.2 Research Objectives
This study aims to provide strong theoretical support for clinical medical staff to standardly guide postoperative exercise in elderly lung cancer patients, and also provides a template for the best evidence clinical application for other studies.
II. Research Process:
This study is a single-center clinical study. The expected number of subjects participating at this center is 68. If you agree to participate in this study, you need to sign this informed consent form. Afterward, we will conduct inclusion and exclusion criteria assessment. If you meet the inclusion criteria and do not meet the exclusion criteria, you will be enrolled in this study and have a 1/2 chance of being assigned to the control group or the intervention group. The intervention period is from 1 day before surgery to 2 weeks after discharge. During hospitalization, a rehabilitation physician and a respiratory therapy physician will jointly conduct a risk assessment, supervise, and guide the intervention for you. The intervention includes aerobic exercise, resistance exercise, respiratory training, etc. The intervention frequency ranges from 1-2 times per day to 1-4 times per week. It will be repeatedly reinforced in combination with authoritative exercise guidance videos until you have mastered it. The main part of the exercise guidance video is the specific exercise program, including the exercise methods you can choose, the duration of each exercise session, the weekly exercise frequency, and the exercise intensity. Corresponding demonstration videos and pictures of movements will be provided according to the exercise method you choose, so that you can practice at home. At discharge, you need to join the postoperative rehabilitation group. We will send the intervention guidance videos to the group, and you can save the videos to your mobile phone for reference at any time. At discharge, the rehabilitation physician will provide you with a paper or electronic exercise program for 2 weeks after discharge according to your condition. You w

研究组 & 干预措施
Exercise Management for Elderly Lung Cancer Patients After Surgery Based on Social Cognitive Theory
The development of this SCT- based exercise program has been described in detail in a previously published protocol. Briefly, participants in the intervention group received the program from one day preoperatively to two weeks post-discharge, with every-other-day sessions (approximately 3-4 times per week). The program operationalized five SCT constructs (self-efficacy, sociocultural/environmental facilitation, goal setting, outcome expectancy, behavioral evaluation) . Standardized rehabilitation materials, including exercise videos accessible via QR codes and a printed exercise manual, were provided to all participants in the intervention group

Control group
Participants allocated to the control group received the institution's standard perioperative care for lung cancer surgery, which did not include any structured post-discharge rehabilitation protocol. The in-hospital care pathway was standardized as follows: upon admission, patients received general orientation to the ward environment and basic disease-related education. One day prior to surgery, patients underwent standardized preoperative teaching, which covered surgical procedures and immediate postoperative precautions. During hospitalization, routine postoperative care was provided, including vital sign monitoring, incision care, pain management, and encouragement of early in-bed mobilization as per institutional nursing standards, but without any formal exercise prescription. No structured rehabilitation guidance-whether verbal, written, or supervised-was provided for the period following hospital discharge.
