Summary

This is a single-arm, open label pilot intervention study with outcomes measured by electronic survey and chart review evaluating a wearable device called Apollo, which is similar to a FitBit but emits vibrations. Our primary objective is to assess whether or not Apollo can help with symptoms of fatigue and pain in patients with Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC).

Conditions

  • Fatigue
  • Metastatic Breast Carcinoma

Interventions

DEVICE

Apollo Armband

The Apollo armband is approximately the size of an Apple Watch and can be worn on the ankle, wrist, or arm with two adjustable fabric straps. Apollo vibrations activate touch receptors in the skin and are perceived as safety signals by the brain resulting in decreased stress, improved recovery, focus, and energy, combatting fatigue and pain. In addition to the wearable, Apollo is a software system that curates music for the body, rather than for the ears.
