頭頸部、肺または消化器癌患者における分節放射線治療中の継続的な活動監視

概要

This pilot research trial studies continuous activity monitoring during fractionated radiotherapy in patients with head and neck, lung, or gastrointestinal cancer. This study explores the use of fitness trackers to study the activity levels of patients before, during, and after radiation therapy and the use of weekly assessments to measure the patients' quality of life during radiation therapy. This may allow doctors to see if there is any relationship between activity levels, quality of life, treatment interruptions, hospitalizations, and clinical outcomes.
