The Effect of Perioperative Rehabilitation Programme Delivered Via a Smart Phone Based Digital Platform in Patients Undergoing Neoadjuvant Therapy for Gastric Cancer Surgery: Study Protocol for a Randomised Controlled Trial

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Procedure, Behavioral
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of a perioperative multimodal rehabilitation program on the incidence of postoperative complications and perioperative clinical indexes including functional capacity, nutritional and psychological status in patients with gastric cancer undergoing neoadjuvant therapy. Besides the investigators also develop a smart phone based digital platform aiming to evaluate its effectiveness in improving patient adherence, compared with the conventional telephone supervision approach. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can the perioperative multimodal rehabilitation program reduce postoperative complications in patients with gastric cancer undergoing neoadjuvant therapy? * Can the smart phone based digital platform improve patients' adherence compared to traditional telephone supervision? * Can the perioperative multimodal rehabilitation program improve the perioperative clinical indicators of patients with gastric cancer undergoing neoadjuvant therapy, including functional capacity, nutritional status and psychological condition? The investigators will compare the perioperative multimodal rehabilitation program with the standard treatment alone to determine whether this program has the effects mentioned above. Participants will follow the perioperative multimodal rehabilitation program from neoadjuvant therapy through to four weeks after discharge.

Target number of participants: 186
Treatments
Active_comparator: Control group
Patients in control group receive usual care throughout their cancer pathway. Besides, we will provide verbal exercise, dietary, and psychological advice to patients but did not provide written advice and supervision
Experimental: Telephone therapeutic group
Patients in telephone therapeutic group receive the perioperative multimodal rehabilitation programme, with supervision delivered via conventional telephone calls.
Experimental: Digital therapeutic group
Patients in digital therapeutic group receive the same perioperative multimodal rehabilitation programme but with all supervision conducted through a smart phone based digital platform. The mode of supervision is thus the key variable that distinguishes the telephone therapeutic group.
