Summary

The aim of this study is to utilize the E-Health platform (EHIP) containing behavioural tipps to enable the provision of early appropriate nutrition recommendations to patients undergoing cancer therapy thereby stabilizing the nutrition status as measured with the scored Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment. Furthermore, we plan to explore the causal pathway between the change in the number and severity of nutrition related symptoms, measure the difference in weight change in percent between the two groups, determine a change in the level of the distress status, and measure the change in functional status. This Information could provide a basis for future nutrition intervention strategies aimed at improving overall nutrition status of patients undergoing cancer therapy and could potentially improve clinical and functional outcomes of this population.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Intervention Group

This study is designed to provide patients a tool with which they can record the nutrition related symptom burden (NRSB) they are experiencing in real time. A pre-defined algorithm then provides them with tailored nutrition information and behavioural tipps based on the severity grade of the symptom recorded. The aim is to increase the chances that such symptoms, when clinically relevant, are addressed in a timely matter and thus the nutrition status is stabilized.
