Designing a Dyad-Based mHealth Intervention to Improve Adherence to Lifestyle Recommendations in Colorectal Cancer Survivors and Their Family Caregivers

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Conduct a 12-week, single-arm pilot study to test the digital lifestyle intervention's acceptability, feasibility, and intended effects in 10 CRC survivors-caregiver dyads. OUTLINE: PHASE III (PILOT STUDY): Dyads use the Healthy Buckeyes app to set goals, self-monitor, elicit social support, reinforcement, time management, relapse prevention, and receive exercise videos and recipes tailored to CRC survivors on study. Dyads also watch three 3 minute videos on strategies for improving healthy lifestyle behaviors weekly, wear a Fitbit and use exercise bands, and receive health coaching over 10 weeks on study. Dyads will be prompted through the app to identify specific ways they will support each other (team activity and team huddle) in meeting their goals throughout the week for 10 weeks on study.
