Pancreatic resection is still a challenging operation characterised by high morbidity. The quality of life in patients after pancreatectomy is a critical outcome. The aim of our trial is to prove whether or not exercise has any benefit to the life of these patients.
The study was an open-label, randomized clinical trial. The patients were selected according to the Consolidated Standard of Reporting Trials criteria. The study was registered at the International Standard Randomized Controlled Trial registry (ISRCTN) with the study ID ISRCTN1087174. The study was approved by the Bioethics and Deontology Committee, Medical School of Aristotle University, Thessaloniki (ref: 166/29.10.2015).
Once the allocation and the follow-up were completed, 21 patients in the exercise group and 22 in the control group were analyzed. There was no statistical difference between the two groups regarding co-morbidities and disease characteristics; however, the quality of life and the total status of health were superior in the exercise group.
Exercise can improve the quality of life in patients after complex operations like pancreatectomy.
胰腺切除术仍是一项具有挑战性的手术,其特点是发病率高。胰腺切除术后患者的生活质量是一个关键结果。我们试验的目的是证明运动对这些患者的生活是否有任何益处。
该研究是一项开放标签的随机临床试验。患者根据《报告试验的统一标准》标准进行选择。该研究在国际标准随机对照试验注册中心(ISRCTN)注册,研究识别码为ISRCTN1087174。该研究获得了塞萨洛尼基亚里士多德大学医学院生物伦理与道义委员会的批准(参考文献:166/29.10.2015)。
分配和随访完成后,对运动组的21名患者和对照组的22名患者进行了分析。两组在合并症和疾病特征方面无统计学差异;然而,运动组的生活质量和总体健康状况更佳。
运动可以改善胰腺切除等复杂手术后患者的生活质量。
