Summary

The goal of this single center prospective observational study is to determine the effect of chemotherapy on (the change in) vital parameters. The main question it aims to answer are: Can changes in vital parameters be measured by using a Fitbit in patients with cancer while undergoing chemotherapy. Participants will be asked to wear a Fitbit for the first two cycles of chemotherapy to evaluate the changes in vital parameters.

Detailed description

The goal of this single center prospective observational study is to determine the effect of chemotherapy on (the change in) vital parameters. The main question it aims to answer are: Can changes in vital parameters be measured by using a Fitbit in patients with cancer while undergoing chemotherapy. Participants will be asked to wear a Fitbit for the first two cycles of chemotherapy to evaluate the changes in vital parameters. Patients will start measuring in the week prior to the first cycle of chemotherapy, target is at least 4 to 7 days before initiation of chemotherapy. Patients were the Fitbit as much as possible, during day and night. Patients continuously carry the Fitbit during the first 3 months of systemic treatment, which tracks their vital signs. At the starting day of the next cycle of chemotherapy patients will have an appointment with one of the researchers to evaluate the use of the Fitbit. Furthermore, it will be checked if a patient has returned to their baseline vital signs.
