Developing Risk Prediction Model and Testing the Effect of Dual Task Walking on Improving Cognitive Function in Patients With Colorectal Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aims of this three-year study are to explore cognitive function under different stages of colorectal cancer (CRC) and its related factors; and understand its disturbance and coping process caused by cancer-induced cognitive impairment (CICI) from patient perspective; and further to test effect of dual-task walking on improving cognitive function in CRC patients.

Detailed Description
Developing risk prediction model of mild cognitive impairment in patients with colorectal cancer from active treatment to survivor by exploring the effect of surgery and chemotherapy on CICI, and to identify high risk population; and testing the effect of dual-task walking on improving cognitive function (memory, executive function and attention) in CRC patients.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Self-report Questionnaire [Change from baseline cognitive function at 12 months]
The questionnaire includes 37 items to assess perceived cognitive function
- Neuropsychological battery test [Change from baseline cognitive function at 12 months]
Three neuropsychological battery tests will be used to assess cognitive function of executive function.
- Neuropsychological battery test [Change from baseline cognitive function at 12 months]
One neuropsychological battery test will be used to assess cognitive function of attention
- Neuropsychological battery test [Change from baseline cognitive function at 12 months]
Five neuropsychological battery tests will be used to assess cognitive function of memory
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Self-report Questionnaire [Change from baseline symptom at 12 months]
The questionnaire includes 24 items to assess symptom severity
Other Outcome Measures
- Self-report Questionnaire [Change from baseline fatigue at 12 months]
The questionnaire includes 15 items to assess fatigue level
- Self-report Questionnaire [Change from baseline depression symptom at 12 months]
The questionnaire includes 20 items to assess frequency of depression symptom
