Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Is the FitMáx© reliable in repeated measures when applied 2 times within two weeks?
Secondary outcome
Is the FitMáx© questionnaire a more reliable instrument to estimate physical fitness compared to existing/validated international questionnaires?
Background summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the reliability of the FitMáx© when measures are repeated within two weeks. Moreover we want to compare the reliability of the FitMáx© to existing and validated questionnaires such as the Duke Activity Status Index (DASI) and Veterans Specific Activity Questionnaire (VSAQ).
In this study we will use the same patient groups as in the studypopulation of the original validation of the FitMáx© (cardiac patients, pulmonic patients, oncologic patients and helathy subjects). Patients are recruited when they come to the outpatient clinic in the Máxima Medical Centre. After receiving signed informed consent and completed questionnaire, reason for hospital appointment and relevant patients demographics are collected from patient files.
In the current research population existing and validated physical activity questionnaires are used to compare resultst of the FitMáx© questionnaire with. These questionnaires are; the Veterans Specific Activity Questionnaire (VSAQ), the Duke Activity Status index (DASI), five physical fitness questions of the EORTC-QLQ C30 and a questionnaire used for preoperative screening in the Netherlands (validation of the preoperative questionnaire was not found in literature).
Study objective
It is hypothesized that the FitMáx© is reliable in repeated measures, and therefore we expect similar scores when FitMáx© is applied within two weeks.
Study design
The scores of the FitMáx©, VASQ, DASI, EORTC-QLQ C30 and preoperative questionnaire are obtained after hospital appointment took place in the Máxima medical center.
