Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Targeted specialized physical group-based exercise and Comprehensive Geriatric Assessement: Vestibular rehabilitation, balance- and progressive resistance training for three months' three times/week and Comprehensive Geriatric Assessement including corresponding interventions
Study summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the cause of dizziness and decline in walking ability in in older adults ≥65 years during chemotherapy treatment for colorectal cancer. Another goal is to investigate if a comprehensive geriatric assessment and three months' specialized physical group-based exercise three times/week can counteract muscle weakness, vertigo, instability, impaired walking balance, and neuropathy
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Dynamic Gait Index (DGI) — Three months
