Patients report fatigue as the most distressing symptom associated with cancer and treatment. Baduanjin has beneficial effects on reducing fatigue. However, no relevant randomized controlled trials comparing the effects of Baduanjin exercise with routine exercise in patients with lung cancer and fatigue have been reported. This blinded trial aimed to compare the effect of Baduanjin versus routine exercise on fatigue for patients with lung cancer. Participants in the intervention group received Baduanjin training and performed Baduanjin every week, while those in the control group performed routine exercise at the same frequency. A total of 73 patients were analyzed. After the intervention, patients in the Baduanjin group experienced significant improvement in fatigue and pain ( < 0.05), while no significant difference in Edmonton Symptom Assessment System items were observed among patients in the exercise group. Our study showed that Baduanjin was a better exercise than routine activity in relieving their fatigue.
患者报告疲劳是与癌症及治疗相关的最令人苦恼的症状。八段锦对减轻疲劳有有益作用。然而，尚无关于比较八段锦运动与常规运动对肺癌伴疲劳患者影响的相关随机对照试验报告。这项双盲试验旨在比较八段锦与常规运动对肺癌患者疲劳的影响。干预组参与者接受八段锦训练并每周进行八段锦练习，而对照组参与者以相同频率进行常规运动。共分析了73例患者。干预后，八段锦组患者的疲劳和疼痛有显著改善（<0.05），而运动组患者在埃德蒙顿症状评估系统各项指标上未观察到显著差异。我们的研究表明，在缓解疲劳方面，八段锦比常规活动是更好的运动。
