What's the purpose of this trial?
The proposed multimodal telerehabilitation model allows a rehabilitation therapy team to set up individualized rehabilitation plans using a web-based care management portal and monitor patient progress online. Patients at home follow a safe and effective personalized exercise and nutrition plan guided by interactive touch-screen technology combined with behavioral counseling, social support, and interactive education and empowerment. The design of the telerehabilitation system is based on the cloud-based Internet-of-Things architecture allowing real-time monitoring of cardiovascular parameters and exercise performance. The patient's level of exertion during exercise is automatically identified by a validated AI-driven algorithm supporting exercise safety and efficacy. The ultimate goal of this pilot feasibility project is to establish the extent of the impact of the proposed patient-centered cancer telerehabilitation model on disease-specific quality of life, and functional and symptom outcomes and to obtain sufficient evidence for a definitive randomized clinical trial evaluating this approach in a multi-center study.
