Breast cancer patients are recommended to engage in regular exercise. In developing countries, where there is a lack of facilities to offer specialized, supervised exercise for this population, regularly exercising might be a challenge. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a home-based intervention in this population.
Breast cancer survivors were randomly assigned to either the home-based exercise program or the usual care group. Exercise intervention included walking, balance, and stretch exercises, along with weekly follow-up telephone calls. Quality of life (QOL) was evaluated using EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-BR23 questionnaires and the predicted VO peak was measured using the Ebbeling submaximal treadmill test.
Eighty-nine patients were enrolled in the study. Reported minutes of exercise gradually increased from 40.7 min per week in week 1 to 116.9 min per week in week 12. This intervention improved global QOL (P = 0.001), social functioning (P = 0.04), and the predicted VO peak (P = 0.01).
This home-based exercise regime effectively increased quality of life and physical activity levels.

建议乳腺癌患者进行规律运动。在发展中国家,缺乏为该人群提供专门的、有监督的运动设施,因此定期锻炼可能是一项挑战。我们旨在评估针对该人群的家庭干预措施的有效性。
将乳腺癌幸存者随机分为家庭运动计划组或常规护理组。运动干预包括步行、平衡和伸展运动,以及每周一次的随访电话。使用欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织(EORTC)QLQ-C30和EORTC QLQ-BR23问卷评估生活质量(QOL),并使用埃贝林亚极量跑步机测试测量预测的最大摄氧量(VO₂peak)。
89名患者参与了该研究。报告的运动分钟数从第1周的每周40.7分钟逐渐增加到第12周的每周116.9分钟。该干预改善了总体生活质量(P = 0.001)、社会功能(P = 0.04)和预测的最大摄氧量(P = 0.01)。
这种家庭运动方案有效地提高了生活质量和身体活动水平。
