Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The goal of this study is to learn whether an exercise program guided by an interactive robot can help reduce tiredness in people with cancer. This kind of tiredness, called cancer-related fatigue, is common during cancer treatment and can make everyday activities harder. People who take part in the exercise program will do sessions guided by the robot. Before and after each session, the study team checks things like heart rate, breathing rate, and blood pressure, and asks about tiredness and other symptoms. Family members and nurses who help patients use the robot are also asked to share their views on how well the robot's teaching materials hold their attention and help them feel confident and satisfied. Everyone who joins the exercise part of the study receives the same robot-guided program. There is no separate group that skips the robot program.

Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Change in Cancer-Related Fatigue Severity
- timeFrame
- Baseline (prior to intervention) through completion of the intervention (up to 5 days), assessed up to three times daily during the intervention period
- description
- Fatigue severity assessed using the Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI), a self-reported measure with items rated from 0 (no fatigue) to 10 (fatigue as bad as you can imagine). Higher scores indicate greater fatigue severity.
