Participants will be enrolled in the experimental trial to receive Fitbits and a smartphone app.

Participants will receive a Fitbit to be synced with a smartphone app (MyDataHelps). Participants will receive push notifications to complete surveys via the MyDataHelps app. The Fitbit will sync with the app for data collection.

Wearable device deployment

Jamie M Faro, PhD

The Survivor mobile health (mHealth) study is testing the use of wearable devices (Fitbits) and a smartphone application in cancer survivors. The goal of the program is to increase survivor's physical activity levels. The Fitbit will be synced to the app and participants will receive messages and notifications about their activity levels. Participants will also complete surveys through the app asking how useful it is and ways to improve it. The study team will conduct qualitative interviews at the completion of the 3 months to see how participants liked the program, and ways it can be improved and make it more specific to cancer survivors. The study team will also conduct interviews with providers and clinic staff to assess their perceptions of patient digital health programs and preferences for receiving patient-generated health data.

Survivor mHealth: Assessing Feasibility of a Wearable Device and App in Cancer Survivors

Qualitative feedback from providers on their preferences for patients using wearable devices and receiving patient-generated data

Feasibility will be determined by a participant meeting all three criteria: 1) Enrollment in trial, 2) completion of baseline measures, and 3) Fitbit sync to app.

Change from baseline to 3-months in steps, light, moderate and vigorous physical activity measured via Fitbits.

Change from baseline to 3-months in light, moderate and vigorous physical activity survey-measured (Godin leisure time questionnaire) physical activity. The questionnaire is a 4-item self-administered questionnaire with the first three questions seeking information on the number of times one engages in mild, moderate and strenuous leisure-time physical activity bouts of at least 15 min duration in a typical week. Scores can range from 0 to 98, with the higher score meaning a greater level of activity for that week.

The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - General (FACT-G) is a 27-item questionnaire assessing physical, emotional, social, and functional well-being over the past 7 days. Participants respond on a Likert scale of 0 to 4 (0=Not at all, 4=Very much). Scores are summed to a total of 0-108 points, with a higher score indicating a greater quality of life.

Mobile Application Rating Scale (MARS). The Rating scale assesses app quality on four dimensions. All items are rated on a 5-point scale from "1.Inadequate" to "5.Excellent". A higher score indicates greater user acceptability of the app.

Qualitative feedback from enrolled participants on the acceptability of the Fitbits, app, mobile questionnaires, and push notification messages within the app
