Survey: Investigating Physical Activity in Advanced Cancer Care

By BOPA Research Committee on 15th May 2024

We are looking for healthcare professionals in the UK working with patients with advanced cancer to participate in a 10-minute survey as part of a study.

The study titled: “Exploring Oncologists’ and Health Care Professionals’ Perspectives: Physical Activity in Advanced Cancer Care” aims to evaluate oncologists’ and health care professionals’ attitudes, practices, and barriers regarding the utility of physical activity (PA) in patients with advanced cancer. A Participant Information Sheet is available via this link –  Participant Information Sheet – Google Docs . There is a link at the bottom of the Participant Information Sheet that will bring you to the survey.

Results from this study will be used in conjunction with further patient scoping work in the design and implementation of a patient and health care led PA intervention in patients with advanced cancer.

You participation would be greatly appreciated. If you would like any more information, please contact Niall Finnegan on N.finnegan@shu.ac.uk
