Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Constant improvements in the areas of diagnostics and treatment lead to an increase of patients surviving an oncological diagnosis ("cancer survivors") thus increasing the cost factor on both society and health care systems. Meta-analysis have shown the effectiveness of multidimensional rehabilitation programs concerning cost-effectiveness and for improving different health parameters. However when submitted to oncological rehabilitation in Switzerland there is no clear definition when to use which specific assessment during the different stages of oncological rehabilitation. This cohort study aims to evaluate and systematically follow-up patients that are assigned for oncological inpatient rehabilitation at the Rehabilitation Center Walenstadtberg. The main purposes are i) to evaluate disease onset of oncological patients during rehabilitation and to identify relationships between mobility and cancer-related fatigue at discharge; ii) to identify predictive factors for everyday functioning and social participation after three months discharge.
