Abstract
SR-MMD is an easily ascertainable metric of physical function that is associated with a higher risk of mortality among cancer survivors. Integrating measures of physical function may help to guide clinical decision-making and improve long-term prognostication in this population. Interventions that prevent the development of SR-MDD, such as physical activity, should be evaluated in this population.
