Interventions

  • Telerehabilitation Unit — BEHAVIORAL
    Telerehabilitation is the use of information and communication technology (ICT) to deliver rehabilitation services remotely in participants' homes or other settings. A telerehab unit consists of a touchscreen tablet, a portable bike, elastic bands, and a pulse oximeter. A mobile Wi-Fi hotspot device will be provided for participants who have limited or no internet connection for the duration of the study. The telerehab unit is designed to work in areas with limited internet connectivity as all multimedia materials are stored locally on the tablet.

Study Details

Prostate cancer has a significant impact on patient quality of life (QoL) directly, as well as through the management of localized disease (such as surgery and radiation-related incontinence, erectile dysfunction, and bowel dysfunction), and via direct side effects of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) resulting in a considerable physical and psychological burden. Recent studies demonstrated the efficacy of multimodal rehabilitation for functional recovery, improvements in QoL, reduction in cancer symptoms, and secondary and tertiary prevention. Despite the mounting evidence regarding the benefits of multimodal rehabilitation for this population, multiple barriers limit the access of prostate cancer survivors to cancer rehabilitation, especially in rural areas. This study is a pilot study to assess usability, acceptability, and exercise adherence in 12-week multimodal telerehabilitation in patients receiving ADT with either high-risk or metastatic prostate cancer residing in rural areas.

  • Experimental: Multimodal Telerehabilitation
    Participation in a remote telerehabilitation program for 12 weeks. Based on the remote physical therapy assessment, a physical therapist will prescribe an individualized rehabilitation plan to each participant. Exercise regimens, lengths of sessions, repetition counts, and frequency of workouts may be tailored depending on individual needs and capabilities.
