Feasibility of a Physical Activity Index in Clinical Practice: Perspectives of Providers and Cancer Patients

Physical activity is a common clinical recommendation for cancer survivors, yet the use of clinical tools to counsel patients is understudied. We developed an integrated Physical Activity Index to assist with this task. The purpose of this project was to conduct interviews to assess the feasibility and clinical utility of the Physical Activity Index from both provider and patient perspectives. Our findings indicate that a Physical Activity Index may be a useful tool to facilitate productive patient-provider communication about physical activity goals.
