Preoperative Physical Activity Improvement With the Use of Activity Trackers in Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy for Bladder Cancer: A Randomized Controlled Trial (PreAct)
A bicentric, open-label randomised controlled trial (RCT) is planned to investigate whether the use of fitness wristbands in a defined preoperative period prior to radical cystectomy leads to a preoperative increase in participants' physical activity (number of steps per day) up to the day of radical cystectomy.
• Planned radical cystectomy with bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy and one of the different forms of urinary diversion (continent vs. incontinent; orthotopic vs. heterotopic) in patients with bladder cancer
• Participants age ≥ 18 years and capacity to consent
• Mobile participant who is not dependent on a walking aid
• The participant declares his or her consent to participate in this study by signing and dating the informed consent form prior to the surgical procedure
