This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
After surgery for non-small cell lung cancer, many patients become less physically active, which can affect how they feel and their overall health. This trial is testing whether a 12-week program using a smartphone app and a Fitbit fitness tracker can help patients gradually increase their daily activity and exercise. The app provides real-time feedback and motivational messages to encourage movement throughout the day.
Research shows that staying physically active after lung cancer surgery improves heart health, reduces tiredness, and helps people feel better overall. However, many lung cancer patients struggle to stay active. This trial wants to see if giving patients a personal coaching tool on their phone can make it easier to build healthier activity habits.

If you join this trial, you'll be randomly placed into either the coaching group or a control group. The coaching group will use a Fitbit fitness tracker and a smartphone app for 12 weeks, which will track your daily steps and activity and send you motivational messages and feedback. Both groups will likely have check-in visits to measure how much you're moving and how you're feeling. The whole study lasts several weeks to months, with most interaction happening through the app on your own time.
