Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention model:
Parallel Assignment
Intervention model description:
Participants with an indication for radical cystectomy are included in this study.
Recruitment, including eligibility criteria testing and randomized allocation to the
intervention or control group, will take place on the day of premedication approximately
7 to 10 days prior to surgery. This period represents the prehabilitation period.

Intervention name:
Daily Activity Goal and Feedback
Description:
The daily activity target is a fixed number of steps. The exact number of steps is
determined beforehand as part of the case number planning in a pilot study with ten
participants and adjusted if necessary. The activity target we suggest is 8000 steps. In
addition, the participants receive feedback several times a day about the steps needed to
reach the goal and whether they have ultimately reached the daily goal.
Arm group label:
Daily Activity Goal and Feedback
Summary:
A bicentric, open-label randomised controlled trial (RCT) is planned to investigate
whether the use of fitness wristbands in a defined preoperative period prior to radical
cystectomy leads to a preoperative increase in participants' physical activity (number of
steps per day) up to the day of radical cystectomy.
Detailed description:
The goal of the PreAct study is to test whether the use of fitness wristbands in a
defined preoperative period prior to radical cystectomy with a daily activity goal and
feedback on the achievement of this goal improves the participants' physical activity up
to the day of radical cystectomy.
In addition to the fitness tracker, we provide each patient with a smartphone. For each
fitness tracker a separate account in a fitness application is set up for (e.g. name:
tracker1.0 with the corresponding e-mail address and password). Neither the patients in
the Daily activity Goal and Feedback arm nor the No Daily Activity Goal or Feedback arm
receive the access data to the accounts. However, the patients in the intervention group
receive the access PIN for the smartphone. On this smartphone a messaging service and the
fitness application are installed. The patient thus receives, for example the wristband
tracker1.0, which is registered with the corresponding access data in the fitness
application of the smartphone given to them. For the entire preoperative period, the
Bluetooth function on the smartphone must always stay activated so that the fitness
application and the fitness tracker are continuously connected to each other. A detailed
description of the timing and implementation of the intervention are described in "Study
design" and "Arm and Interventions".
