Wearable Device and Self-Regulation Strategies to Promote Physical Activity Among Children With Cancer: A Pilot Study
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 4 Jun 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This is a clinical trial that tested whether a 12-week exercise program using smart wristbands and personalized goal-setting could help children with cancer become more active, feel more confident about exercising, and improve their quality of life. The study included 72 children and teenagers (ages 6-18) receiving cancer treatment at two hospitals in China. They were divided into two groups: Intervention group (33 children): Used a smart wristband to track daily steps, followed a personalized exercise plan, and received weekly guidance. Control group (39 children): Continued with usual care (no special exercise program). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does the exercise program help children with cancer move more and sit less; 2. Can it boost their confidence to stay active and improve their physical and emotional well-being?
