Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Interventions to promote physical activity among women breast cancer survivors (BCS) in low to middle-income countries are limited. We conducted a study to assess the acceptability and preliminary effectiveness of an 8-week, 3 times/week group dance intervention for BCS delivered in Bogotá, Colombia. The effect of the intervention on participants' physical activity levels, motivation to engage in physical activity, and quality of life were evaluated, and interviews were thematically analyzed to assess program acceptability.

Primary outcomes (4)
- measure
- Change in participants' physical activity levels
- timeFrame
- Physical activity levels were assessed at baseline and after the 8th week
- description
- To assess the change from baseline participants' physical activity levels at 8 weeks, participants wore accelerometers for 7 consecutive days from awakening to bedtime using an elasticized belt around the waist at the right mid-axillary line. For wear-time validation, a minimum of four weekdays and a weekend day with at least 10 hours of wear during the waking time was required. Accelerometers were initialized to collect data at a sampling frequency of 80 Hz, downloaded in one-second epochs and grouped in 60-second epochs for analysis.
