BACKGROUND
The practice of yoga has been shown to improve disease- and treatment-related side effects in the noncurative cancer patient.
OBJECTIVE
This user experience study aimed to examine the feasibility and usefulness of a DVD-based yoga program for young adult cancer patients with a noncurative diagnosis.
METHODS
Participants were asked to partake in a 7-week DVD-based yoga program and complete measures of program use and usefulness.
RESULTS
Nine patients expressed study interest and 5 consented to participate. Four completed the full study protocol. Participants reported being satisfied with the program and described that it provided an opportunity for self-care. Improvements in functional, physical, and spiritual well-being and overall quality of life were found. Barriers included competing time demands and feeling unwell. No adverse events were reported.
CONCLUSION
The program was viewed as an accessible and useful activity option; however, a desire for greater social support from relatable others was highlighted.
背景
瑜伽练习已被证明可改善非治愈性癌症患者与疾病及治疗相关的副作用。
目的
这项用户体验研究旨在检验基于DVD的瑜伽项目对非治愈性诊断的年轻成年癌症患者的可行性和实用性。
方法
参与者被要求参加一个为期7周的基于DVD的瑜伽项目，并完成项目使用情况和实用性的测量。
结果
9名患者表达了对研究的兴趣，5名同意参与。4名完成了完整的研究方案。参与者报告对该项目感到满意，并表示它提供了自我护理的机会。在功能、身体和精神健康以及总体生活质量方面都有改善。障碍包括时间需求冲突和身体不适。未报告不良事件。
结论
该项目被视为一种可及且有用的活动选择；然而，强调了对来自相关他人更多社会支持的渴望。
