Multi-center prospective pilot trial study

Detailed Description

This is a clinical study to evaluate impact of dietary smartphone application on nutritional status among cancer patients. the study hypotheses there is improvement in nutritional outcome in intervention group if compare with control group. the eligible subjects will be screened according to inclusion criteria and approached individually to participate in this study. The consented subjects will be divided randomly into two groups, intervention and conventional groups. Conventional dietitian care will be given to conventional group (CG) while intervention group (IG) will received innovated dietitian care where they will be introduced with iDSA apps and installed in consented subjects' smartphone. All subjects will be reviewed again by dietitian in 1-month time to assess nutritional status (weight and energy protein intake) as well as nutrition impact symptoms.

Study Design

• Allocation Method: RANDOMIZED
• Intervention Model: PARALLEL
• Primary Study Purpose: SUPPORTIVE_CARE
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

IG

artificial intelligence dietary application, iDSA, will be introduced and installed. Explanation on the function and application of iDSA will be given. Daily energy and macro-nutrients requirement target will bed set. The daily energy and macronutrients requirement target is secured by password. Subjects will record their daily dietary intake (food with cooking method and portion size) and nutrition impact symptoms via smartphone application at least 3 times a week. Subjects able to keep track their intake at home. During follow up session, subjects show the iDSA diet intake summary records to Researcher for further assessment.
