Book excerpt: The primary goal of this study was to determine if an eight-week exercise intervention can improve quality of life and decrease fatigue in breast cancer survivors. The exercise intervention was uniquely designed to foster learning and improve the self-efficacy of the study subject. The first four weeks of the study encompassed learning to format an exercise routine based on the recommendations of the American College of Sports Medicine and learning basic exercises. The final four weeks of the intervention involved the subject implementing their own unique routine with the supervision of the lead investigator. The outcome measures include a quality of life survey, 6-Minute Walk Test, and Fatigue Severity Scale. The results of the Fatigue Severity Scale showed an almost five-point increase in fatigue. The quality of life survey had a sixty-one percent improvement or best outcomes and twenty-two percent worsening. Improved learning and self-efficacy were found in this study. .
Book Synopsis Exercise and Cancer Survivorship by : John Saxton
Download or read book Exercise and Cancer Survivorship written by John Saxton and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-01-08 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An increasing number of exercise scientists are applying their skills collaboratively (with medics and physiotherapists) to clinical populations and investigating the effects of exercise in relation to wide-ranging clinical, pathophysiological and psycho-social outcomes. The book is aimed at final year Undergraduate and Master's level students of Exercise Science, who are interested in working with clinical populations such as cancer patients. Many university Sport and Exercise Science courses in the UK and USA now have modules which are focused on exercise for health, and cover aspects of exercise science which are appropriate for clinical populations. The book would also be a very valuable resource for Undergraduate and Postgraduate Physiotherapy courses and a very useful resource for students of Exercise Science and Physiotherapy, as well as practitioners working with cancer patients.There are an increasing amount of research opportunities for exercise scientists who are interested in working with clinical populations. Furthermore, a considerable amount of Government and Charity research funding is being targeted at active lifestyles and this is helping to generate a new culture of collaboration between exercise scientists and medics. Hence, it is highly likely that an increasing number of students from Sport and Exercise Science courses will pursue careers within the clinical realm in the future. Practicing exercise therapists, clinical exercise physiologists and physiotherapists would also find lots of useful up-to-date knowledge to support their evidence-based clinical practice. This book would also be of interest to informed readers who are themselves undergoing or recovering from cancer treatment.
Book Synopsis Physical Activity and Cancer by : Kerry S. Courneya
Download or read book Physical Activity and Cancer written by Kerry S. Courneya and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-11-26 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores in depth the relation between physical activity and cancer control, including primary prevention, coping with treatments, recovery after treatments, long-term survivorship, secondary prevention, and survival. The first part of the book presents the most recent research on the impact of physical activity in preventing a range of cancers. In the second part, the association between physical activity and cancer survivorship is addressed. The effects of physical activity on supportive care endpoints (e.g., quality of life, fatigue, physical functioning) and disease endpoints (e.g., biomarkers, recurrence, survival) are carefully analyzed. In addition, the determinants of physical activity in cancer survivors are discussed, and behavior change strategies for increasing physical activity in cancer survivors are appraised. The final part of the book is devoted to special topics, including the relation of physical activity to pediatric cancer survivorship and to palliative cancer care.

Download or read book Health Behaviors and Health Status of Cancer Survivors After the Completion of an Exercise Intervention written by Chrystelle Boko and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evidence has demonstrated that exercise interventions tailored for cancer survivors are successful in mitigating the adverse effects of cancer-related fatigue; however, there are few studies that investigate the exercise behaviors of survivors after completing an exercise intervention. This study examined the exercise behaviors and fatigue status of survivors one to two years after graduating from Strides to Strength [trademark symbol], a cancer wellness and fatigue management program. The sample included 41 male and female cancer survivors ages 23-81 years who graduated from STS [trademark symbol] in 2011 and 2012. Univariate analyses were used to examine demographic characteristics of participants. Bivariate analyses were used to assess the relationship between physical activity and fatigue levels pre-intervention, post-intervention, and one to two years post-intervention. At follow-up, 9.8% of participants were sedentary, as compared to 31.7% at pre-intervention. The mean minutes of exercise/week of the sample increased significantly from pre-intervention to follow-up (t(36)=8.79, p=0.00). Participants' mean fatigue score also increased significantly from pre-intervention to follow-up (t(40)=5.64, p=0.00), indicating a decrease in fatigue. Physical activity should be encouraged at regular intervals during the cancer experience in order to improve quality of life outcomes. Future research should examine the most effective way of communicating the benefits of physical activity to cancer survivors.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Truncated abstract] Previously, research has demonstrated that cancer patients and survivors, through participation in moderate intensity exercise, can achieve significant reductions in disease and adjuvant treatment morbidities. Of concern, is that current research findings have shown that cancer survivors are not exercising at levels sufficient enough to attain health benefits, yet the reasons for this behaviour pattern are not well understood. Therefore the research in this thesis has been conducted from the perspective of Self-Determination Theory (SDT) in order to examine the exercise motivations of Western Australian breast cancer survivors, and the impact that these motivations had on exercise behaviour and quality of life (QOL) outcomes. ... Strong positive correlations were observed between the exercise regulations and the psychological needs across all 58 participants at baseline and weeks 12 and 24. Significant time by group interactions were demonstrated for all psychological needs variables and exercise regulations except for amotivation. Furthermore, from baseline to week 12, the IEG demonstrated improvements on psychological needs with corresponding significantly more self-determined exercise regulations. Conversely, no changes were observed for the DEG. From week 12 until week 24, the DEG demonstrated significant increases in perceived psychological needs and reported more self-determined exercise regulations. Psychological needs and exercise regulations measured at baseline did not predict adherence to the exercise programme. Overall, SDT assisted in explaining the motivation / exercise relationship for cancer survivors. Perceived autonomy and competence positively influence the development of identified and intrinsic motivations, which are significant factors for the adoption and maintenance of an exercise programme. Identification of these factors, as well as determining patients readiness to exercise, will assist in the development of future exercise programmes. Of importance, is that these programmes should be tailored to an individual s needs and well-being. Increased exercise levels may reduce the impact of treatment morbidities for cancer patients and survivors, as well as improve their QOL. Recommendations from this research are provided for health professionals, whilst recommendations for future research are also offered.

Book Synopsis THE EFFECTS OF A HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS' PRESCRIPTION OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY ON CANCER SURVIVORS' PHYSICAL ACTIVITY LEVELS. by : Brian Patrick Maloney
Download or read book THE EFFECTS OF A HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS' PRESCRIPTION OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY ON CANCER SURVIVORS' PHYSICAL ACTIVITY LEVELS. written by Brian Patrick Maloney and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cancer survivors may experience adverse health effects (e.g., fatigue, anxiety, depression) even after cancer treatment is completed. Physical activity is one way cancer survivors may suppress or treat these side effects. Despite the known benefits, nearly 82% of cancer survivors do meet ACSM physical activity guidelines. One strategy that may increase cancer survivors' physical activity is for health care providers to prescribe a physical activity prescription. This study's purpose was to compare physical activity levels between cancer survivors who were prescribed physical activity by their healthcare provider and those who were not. We hypothesized that cancer survivors who received a physical activity prescription post-treatment would report higher levels of physical activity than survivors who did not. Participants completed an online survey that inquired about demographics, cancer history, physical activity prescription, physical activity levels, anxiety, depression, fatigue, sleep quality, stress, and health-related quality of life. Participants (N = 39) were mostly female (74.4%) and Caucasian (92.3%), with a mean age of 48.1 ± 17. 9 years. Participants reported being diagnosed with breast (41%), 'other' (e.g., lymphoma, ovarian, stomach) (30.8%), leukemia (12.8%), kidney (7.7%), prostate (5.1%), and endometrial cancer (2.6%). Post-treatment physical activity prescription was reported by 46% of participants. Data revealed no significant difference in physical activity levels (p = .896; d = .042), anxiety (p = .400; d = .400), depression (p = .510; d = .510), fatigue (p = .207; d = -.412), sleep quality (p = .984; d = .007), stress (p = .968; d = .017), and health-related quality of life (p = .435; d = .254) scores between participants who received a physical activity prescription post-cancer treatment and those who did not. Findings indicated no differences in physical activity levels in individuals who were prescribed physical activity versus those who were not. With the discrepancy in effectiveness between written and oral physical activity prescriptions, future research should inquire about what type of physical activity prescription participants received (e.g., written, oral, etc.) while also considering a larger, more diverse sample size. From a public health perspective, future research is warranted to determine how patients receive physical activity prescriptions to improve their effectiveness.
