Study type | Observational |
Impaired health related quality of life (HRQOL) including fatigue, problems with sleep and
psychosocial well being (physical, emotional, and spiritual) have been noted in adult cancer
survivors. Physical domain is one of the most common measured indicators of HRQOL. Despite
the tremendous implications of having an impaired QOL, few studies have staged interventions
aimed at improving HRQOL in a heterogeneous group of cancer survivors. There is little
literature examining whether a yoga intervention is feasible in a heterogeneous group of
cancer survivors.
The proposed research will utilize Vanderbilt Ingram Cancer Center (VICC), Nashville General
Hospital (NGH) and REACH for Survivorship program for a pilot study. The investigators will
see if a study using a broad range of diagnoses is feasible for a Yoga Intervention.
