Telehealth Exercise Program Evaluating Fatigue and Physical Function in Rural Cancer Survivors

BfitBwell-TP is a 12-week telehealth exercise intervention. Exercise prescriptions are created, personalized, and delivered by Cancer Exercise Specialists. Exercise content is delivered using a combination of videoconference sessions and a commercial personal training application (accessible via smartphone or internet browser). Patient-reported symptoms (specifically cancer-related fatigue) are assessed every two weeks via emailed surveys. Survey scores are compared to a reference chart of predicted improvements during the program, developed from an established clinical exercise oncology program. Additional videoconference sessions are initiated for participants demonstrating lower than expected symptom improvement, with the goal of adapting the current exercise prescription to improve symptom response.
