Brief summary

A metaverse-based multidimensional rehabilitation program will be implemented for colorectal cancer survivors who have undergone curative surgery and adjuvant therapy. The intervention is based on the behavior change wheel and includes dietary intervention, exercise intervention, psychological support, and behavior management. Through various methods such as training, education, and motivation, the program aims to enhance the patients' functional ability, opportunities, and motivation, thereby promoting healthy behavior. Outcome measures include quality of life, fear of recurrence, and adoption of a healthy lifestyle. The intervention period is 4 weeks, with evaluations conducted at baseline and week 4 of the intervention

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Chinese version of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30)Change from Baseline at 4 weeksThis Scale was developed to measure the quality of life of patients with cancer. It includes 30 questions and three sub-dimensions: General Well-Being, Functional Difficulties, and Symptom Control. The maximum score on the scale is 100, and the minimum is 0. High scores on the functional sub-dimension indicate good/healthy functional status, high scores on the symptom sub-dimension indicate high levels of symptoms and/or problems, and high scores on the global health status/quality of life sub-dimension indicate good quality of life.
Fear of Progression Questionaire-Short Form (FoP-Q-SF)Change from Baseline at 4 weeksThe FoP-Q-SF was developed by German scholar Herschbach in 2005 in people such as diabetes, rheumatic diseases and cancer, to measure patients' fear of disease progression or recurrence, a total of 7 dimensions, 43 entries, Cronbach's α is 0.7. It is a single-dimensional scale with a total of 12 items, using the Liket 5-level scoring method, the score range is 12\ 60, the higher the score, the higher the level of fear.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
30-second Chair Sit-To-Stand (30-s STS)Change from Baseline at 4 weeksAbility to test mobility and posture transposition. Using a chair without armrests, the number of times the participant could change from a sitting state (leaning back on the chair with both feet on the ground) to fully standing within 30 s was counted. Two tests were performed, with 1 min of rest in between, and the average value was rounded to the nearest value.
BMIChange from Baseline at 4 weeksBMI reflects the patient's nutritional status and physical fitness.
Chemotherapy completion rate4th weekChemotherapy completion rate
LifestyleChange from Baseline at 4 weeksAssessments of lifestyle behaviors will be conducted using a self-developed behavior scale, focusing on the frequency of behaviors such as diet and smoking.
Red blood cell countChange from Baseline at 4 weeksRed blood cell count
Hemoglobin concentrationChange from Baseline at 4 weeksHemoglobin concentration
Platelet countChange from Baseline at 4 weeksPlatelet count
White blood cell countChange from Baseline at 4 weeksWhite blood cell count
The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ)Change from Baseline at 4 weeksThe International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) is a commonly used tool for assessing individuals' levels of physical activity in their daily lives. It aims to measure individuals' physical activity over the past 7 days, including overall physical activity levels and the frequency of activities.
