Brief Summary:
This trial studies the feasibility of monitoring step count as a measure of physical activity in patients with newly diagnosed glioma undergoing radiation therapy. Physical activity measured by step count may help to improve the quality of life and symptoms for patients with newly diagnosed glioma.
Detailed Description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. Evaluate the feasibility of monitoring step count as a measure of physical activity in patients with newly diagnosed glioma undergoing radiation therapy (RT) at MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:
I. Estimate the effects of physical activity as measured by step count on cognition, fatigue, anxiety and depression scores and assess differences between groups.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 groups.
GROUP I: Patients wear a pedometer for step count monitoring over 6 weeks.
GROUP II: Patients wear a FitBit for step count monitoring over 6 weeks.
After completion of study, patients are followed up at 3 and 6 months after completing radiation therapy.
