Reclaim Your Energy
Research study available for individuals who have Cancer-Related Fatigue
EnergyPoints is an app that teaches you how to self-administer acupressure to manage fatigue and poor sleep related to cancer.
The purpose of the study is to look at whether the EnergyPoints app can help cancer survivors use acupressure to manage fatigue and sleep problems. We want to learn how the app affects fatigue, sleep quality and amount, activity, and overall quality of life.
The study will last for 8 or 14 weeks
(depending on which group you get assigned to by chance)
and includes 3 steps:
Answering daily and
weekly questions online or
in the app while wearing a
fitness tracker
Using the app at home, to
report symptoms, answer
questions, and self-
administer acupressure
once or twice each day
while wearing a fitness
tracker for 6 weeks
A follow-up online survey
and interview by video call
on Microsoft Teams
(camera optional) to learn
from your experiences
Participants must live in the U.S., have cancer or have been treated for cancer, and
must be 18 years of age or older. Compensation provided as well as a fitness tracker
