To assess a whole-body vibration (WBV) intervention for children after cancer treatment.
Eleven children after inpatient anticancer therapy participated in a 12-week supervised WBV intervention, which consisted of one 9- to 13-minute WBV session per week, with 5 to 9 minutes' overall vibration time. Feasibility was defined as the ability to participate in WBV training without reporting adverse events. The number of offered and completed training sessions, program acceptance, and measures of function were assessed.
Nine participants completed the WBV intervention without any WBV-related adverse events. The adherence rate was 87.96%. Only minor side effects were reported and there was general program acceptance. We found indications that WBV has positive effects on knee extensor strength and active ankle dorsiflexion range of motion.
WBV was feasible, safe, and well received among children after inpatient anticancer therapy. No health deteriorations were observed. Positive effects need to be confirmed in future trials.
评估针对癌症治疗后儿童的全身振动(WBV)干预措施。
11名接受住院抗癌治疗后的儿童参加了为期12周的有监督的WBV干预,该干预包括每周进行一次9至13分钟的WBV训练,总振动时间为5至9分钟。可行性定义为能够参与WBV训练且未报告不良事件。评估了提供和完成的训练课程数量、项目接受度以及功能指标。
9名参与者完成了WBV干预,未出现任何与WBV相关的不良事件。依从率为87.96%。仅报告了轻微的副作用,并且总体上对该项目表示接受。我们发现有迹象表明WBV对膝关节伸肌力量和主动踝关节背屈活动范围有积极影响。
WBV在住院抗癌治疗后的儿童中是可行、安全且广受接受的。未观察到健康状况恶化。积极效果需要在未来的试验中得到证实。
