About this study

Official title: Department of Nursing, Tzu Chi University, Hualien, Taiwan

Due to the changes in lifestyle caused by the COVID-19, it is a priority to provide multi-interactive digital platforms and social media for nutrition and exercise programs for cancer patients. A two-year serial program uses mixed study methods of longitudinal combined experimental study. We will investigate cancer frailty's current situation and track the frailty trends after cancer patients received different treatments. We will also invite experts to develop multi-interactive digital platforms of nutrition and performance-based tailored circuit training programs according to the cancer frailty survey. We will recruit 20-85 years of newly diagnosed or first-time recurrence cancer patients and stratified randomization assigned to evaluate nutrition and physical exercise intervention effectiveness. The measure indicators were treatment-related adverse events, nutritional status, frailty status, survival rate, and life quality.
