BACKGROUND
One of the common side effects of cancer is fatigue that affects patients' life quality and leads to disability. Exercise has an important role in improving these patients' life quality and can be used as a complementary treatment. Moreover, there are few studies on the impact of exercise on fatigue among patients with colon cancer. Therefore, the present study investigated the effects of exercise on the severity of fatigue in patients with colorectal cancer who underwent chemotherapy in Ahwaz.
METHODS
In a quasi-experimental study, the adults with colorectal cancer were enrolled. The sample included 36 people. The study environment included adult hematology and chemotherapy wards of Shefa Hospital in Ahwaz. Data were collected using a demographic form and a questionnaire in order to measure the severity of fatigue. Then, the patients had 40 minutes of exercise, 3 times a week for 4 weeks. The effect of exercise versus fatigue intensity was measured at the end of every week. Data were analyzed using SPSS software.
RESULTS
The mean of the fatigue severity in the weeks after exercise was significantly different from the week before it. Friedman test showed significant differences between all the weeks before and after the exercise. The mean of the fatigue severity was 3.69 on the week 0 (before the exercise), and decreased to 3.57 on the first week after exercise, 3.46 on the second week, 2.58 on the third week, and 1.69 on the forth week.
CONCLUSIONS
Considering the results of this study, exercise and work-out can be an effective factor in reducing fatigue in patients.
背景
癌症的常见副作用之一是疲劳，这会影响患者的生活质量并导致残疾。运动在改善这些患者的生活质量方面具有重要作用，可作为一种辅助治疗方法。此外，关于运动对结肠癌患者疲劳影响的研究较少。因此，本研究调查了运动对在阿瓦士接受化疗的结直肠癌患者疲劳严重程度的影响。
方法
在一项准实验研究中，纳入了成年结直肠癌患者。样本包括36人。研究环境为阿瓦士谢法医院的成人血液科和化疗病房。使用人口统计学表格和问卷收集数据，以测量疲劳的严重程度。然后，患者每周进行3次、每次40分钟的运动，共持续4周。在每周结束时测量运动对疲劳强度的影响。使用SPSS软件分析数据。
结果
运动后各周的疲劳严重程度均值与运动前一周有显著差异。弗里德曼检验显示运动前后所有周之间存在显著差异。运动前第0周的疲劳严重程度均值为3.69，运动后第一周降至3.57，第二周为3.46，第三周为2.58，第四周为1.69。
结论
考虑到本研究的结果，运动锻炼可能是减轻患者疲劳的一个有效因素。
