Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of this pilot study is to explore the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of a 6-week mobile health (mHealth) physical activity intervention among adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors being treated at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics. Eligible participants will receive a Fitbit activity monitor and access to the mHealth physical activity intervention for 6 weeks. The intervention will include regular motivational messages to encourage activity, a social media thread to provide social support, and a series of fun virtual walking races. AYA cancer survivors between 13-39 years are invited to participate and the impact of this intervention will be tested over 6 weeks.
