Number of Weekly Steps, Fatigue, Quality of Life, Well-being During Cancer Treatment: Impact of Recommendations Strengthened by the Provision of Web Interface and Tele-coaching. (PODOMETRE)

May 22, 2019 updated by: Institut Paoli-Calmettes
study to correlate this level of objective physical activity with the levels of fatigue and quality of life in cancer patient being treated.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Study to objectify the level of physical activity of patients by a tool, often used in the global population: the pedometer. Several measurements per questionnaire also will be carried out repeatedly (weekly) in order to correlate this level of objective physical activity with the levels of fatigue and quality of life. The hypothesis we formulate is as follows: the number of weekly steps is negatively correlated with the level of fatigue, positively with the quality of life and well-being.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Group With Recommendations (GAR)
Patients in the GAR group will receive several recommendations and will have access to an online tool to increase motivation to engage in physical activity.
Patients will be equipped with pedometers for 8 weeks, all day and must complete the number of steps each day. They will have to complete online evaluation questionnaires regularly. The main objective is to correlate the level of physical activity with the level of fatigue, quality of life and well-being weekly during an anticancer treatment.
Control Group (GC)
No recommendation given
Patients will be equipped with pedometers for 8 weeks, all day and must complete the number of steps each day. They will have to complete online evaluation questionnaires regularly. The main objective is to correlate the level of physical activity with the level of fatigue, quality of life and well-being weekly during an anticancer treatment.
