Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the effect of mobile health intervention on frailty, physical fitness, physical activity, and nutritional status of elderly patients with colorectal cancer. The main questions it aim to answer are: 1. Does the mobile health intervention reduce frailty in elderly colorectal cancer patients compared to standard care? 2. Does the mobile health intervention improve physical fitness, physical activity, and nutritional status in elderly colorectal cancer patients compared to standard care? Participants will receive the Mobile Health Management Frailty Care Program.
