The Impact of Artificial Intelligence Dietary Smartphone Application on Nutritional Status Among Cancer Patients

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Multi-center prospective pilot trial study

Detailed Description
-----------------
This is a clinical study to evaluate impact of dietary smartphone application on nutritional status among cancer patients. the study hypotheses there is improvement in nutritional outcome in intervention group if compare with control group. the eligible subjects will be screened according to inclusion criteria and approached individually to participate in this study. The consented subjects will be divided randomly into two groups, intervention and conventional groups. Conventional dietitian care will be given to conventional group (CG) while intervention group (IG) will received innovated dietitian care where they will be introduced with iDSA apps and installed in consented subjects' smartphone. All subjects will be reviewed again by dietitian in 1-month time to assess nutritional status (weight and energy protein intake) as well as nutrition impact symptoms.

Arms and Interventions

| Participant Group/Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
| --- | --- |
| Experimental: IG<br>artificial intelligence dietary application, iDSA, will be introduced and installed. Explanation on the function and application of iDSA will be given. Daily energy and macro-nutrients requirement target will bed set. The daily energy and macronutrients requirement target is secured by password. Subjects will record their daily dietary intake (food with cooking method and portion size) and nutrition impact symptoms via smartphone application at least 3 times a week. Subjects able to keep track their intake at home. During follow up session, subjects show the iDSA diet intake summary records to Researcher for further assessment. | Device: artificial intelligence dietary android mobile application<br>* subjects use artificial intelligence dietary mobile application to monitor dietary intake<br>* Other names: iDSA;|
| No Intervention: CG<br>CG will receive conventional dietitian care includes nutrition care process using conventional 24 hours diet recall method for dietary assessment | |

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| weight changes | compare weight before intervention and after intervention | one month | 
| daily energy intake | compare daily energy intake before intervention and after intervention | one month | 
| daily protein intake | compare daily protein intake before intervention and after intervention | one month | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| PG-SGA score | compare PG-SGA score (numerical data) before intervention and after intervention | one month | 
| Nutrition Impact Symptoms (NIS) | compare NIS score (scale data) before intervention and after intervention. The score range from 1 to 5 where score 1 is better while score 5 is worst | one month |
