What this Trial Is About
This research aims to evaluate changes in physical activity, functional capacity, and overall health status in adults diagnosed with colorectal or anal cancer. The study focuses particularly on individuals experiencing incontinence and includes the adaptation and validation of specialized quality of life questionnaires tailored for colorectal and anal cancer patients, as well as a fecal incontinence severity index. It seeks to better understand the impact of these conditions on patients' lives and physical activity levels. The study is observational and cross-sectional, meaning there is no treatment or intervention being tested. Instead, participants will complete various subjective measurement tools including quality of life questionnaires specific to cancer types (EORTC QLQ-C30, QLQ-CR29, QLQ-AN27) and the Fecal Incontinence Severity Index (FISI). Physical activity will also be assessed using the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ). Participants will be asked to complete these questionnaires and assessments at baseline or over a short period such as one week. Researchers will gather data on participants’ physical activity, functional status, and quality of life. This data will help evaluate how colorectal and anal cancers, along with related symptoms like fecal incontinence, affect daily functioning and well-being. The study includes adults aged 18 to 80 years and monitors participants’ responses through validated patient-reported outcome measures.
