This article describes an ongoing, long-term clinical exercise program for women with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), some of whom also have chronic fatigue and immune dysfunction syndrome (CFIDS). The recorded outcomes from the most recent year of the program also are reported. Participants engaged in sessions lasting 50-70 minutes, 5 days per week; each session involved aerobic activity, resistance training, and other dynamic exercise. One group was in the program for 3 years and another group was in the program for 2 years. Program outcomes for the year (comparing beginning and end-of-year results) are presented for both groups on physical fitness, psychosocial, and FMS/CFIDS symptoms. The outcomes support that all of the women appear to have benefited from the program in numerous ways, suggesting that the program works. Also, those outcomes are in agreement with past research reported in this journal. Implications for clinical nurse specialists working with FMS/CFIDS patients are discussed.
本文介绍了一项针对纤维肌痛综合征(FMS)女性患者的正在进行的长期临床锻炼计划,其中一些患者还患有慢性疲劳和免疫功能障碍综合征(CFIDS)。同时报告了该计划最近一年记录的结果。参与者每周进行5天,每次持续50 - 70分钟的课程;每次课程包括有氧运动、阻力训练和其他动态锻炼。一组参与该计划3年,另一组参与2年。展示了两组在该年的计划成果(比较年初和年末结果),涉及身体素质、心理社会状况以及FMS/CFIDS症状。结果表明,所有女性似乎都在许多方面从该计划中受益,这表明该计划有效。此外,这些结果与本期刊过去报道的研究一致。文中还讨论了对从事FMS/CFIDS患者护理工作的临床护理专家的启示。
