Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Daily physical activity will be assessed in all patients before, immediately after, and six and twelve months after completion of rehabilitation by means of the StepWatch Activity Monitor ™ (SAM), a uniaxial accelerometer worn above the ankle.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Health related quality of life will be assessed in all patients before, directly after, and six and twelve months after completion of rehabilitation. For this purpose, the KINDL® questionnaire, developed for children and adolescents, will be used. At the beginning, as well as directly before the completion of rehabilitation a clinical gait analysis by means of two HDV camcorders and pressure distribution is carried out in patients with brain tumors and bone sarcomas.	—
