Filter by:Chronic fatigue (CF) is a pathological fatigue over at least 6 months, without improvement after rest or sleep. In primary care, it is the major complaint in 5 to 10% of the consultations. Physical activity is an efficient therapy to help reducing this fatigue in addition to the improvement of muscular and cardiorespiratory functions. However, it remains little exploited. Yet the studies focus mainly on precise chronic pathologies with general trainings, without considering the fatigue status and reveal a large heterogeneity. Personalizing the physical training appears to be the next step in order to improve chronic fatigue patients care. The objective of this study will be to investigate the relevance and the effects of a personalized physical training to reduce fatigue in chronic fatigue patients.
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of the progressive relaxation exercises applied to the individuals with diabetes on fatigue and sleep. This randomized controlled study was a single-blind, parallel intervention and control group experimental study. The researcher applied the training for the progressive relaxation exercises to the intervention group. Socio-demographic data, 'Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index' and 'The Fatigue Severity Scale' were used for the study.
This randomized controlled study evaluates the effect of acupressure application on fatigue, quality of life and comfort in hemodialysis patients. In our research, it is aimed to reduce fatigue, increase the quality of life and comfort level in hemodialysis patients with acupressure applied.
The aim of this study will be to assess the engagement and acceptability of the Untire mHealth intervention for adults with cancer related fatigue. Acceptability will be assessed after 2, 4, 6 and 12 weeks of app use. Participants (both those competed the study and those who stopped using the app) will be asked about their engagement with the app. A secondary aim of this study will be to provide preliminary efficacy outcomes of the Untire intervention in reducing fatigue and QoL in adults experiencing cancer related fatigue.
The available therapeutic strategies for Multiple Sclerosis (MS)-related symptoms are usually faced with limited efficacy and numerous side effects. Patients with MS frequently suffer from fatigue, affective symptoms, and cognitive deficits.
Evaluation of the short- and medium-term effect of a yoga intervention in addition to routine care compared to health education in addition to routine care on fatigue in patients with post covid syndrome.
Lung cancer is a malignant tumour that has transformed from a single cancer disease into one of the most striking global health problems. Lung cancer has an insidious onset, and most patients are first diagnosed with the middle and advanced stages. Cancer-related fatigue is the most common and distressing symptom reported by lung cancer patients. For cancer patients, fatigue has a lasting impact on physical, psychological and social functions, and interferes with activities and participating in life events, thereby worsening the health-related quality of life. Family members have a key role in providing advanced lung cancer patients with informational, instrumental, and emotional support, which is crucial to patients' adaptation to the advanced illness and living a meaningful cancer life. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is the third-wave cognitive behavioural therapy to improve functioning and health-related quality of life by increasing psychological flexibility. The study aims to examine test the feasibility and acceptability, and preliminary effects of online ACT on fatigue interference in patients with advanced lung cancer and caregiver burden.
Study Design - A Counterbalanced Study Aims - To determine the effect of a) warm-up exercises and b) mental visualisation on the musculoskeletal demands and cognitive demands respectively during robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery. Outcome Measures - 1. EMG measurements of frequency and amplitude across muscle fibres. 2. EEG measurements of peak alpha power, and alpha spindle duration and amplitude. Study Participants and Eligibility - Surgeons who have certificates of completion of training (CCT) and performing surgical procedures using the minimally invasive techniques of RALS. Planned Size of Sample - The investigators have chosen the higher value for our power calculation (an effect size of 0.24) which requires 10 surgeons per condition performing 1 -2 operations for 80% power to detect a difference between conditions, at an alpha of 0.05. Planned Study Period-Duration - Each surgeon will be required to participate in the study for approximately 3 - 4 weeks performing 3 surgical procedures and based on estimates that surgeons routinely perform an average of 1 robotic procedure per week we anticipate the study will run for 6 months. Research Question - Does structured simulated warm-up exercises prior to performing surgery improve surgeons' ergonomic awareness and maintain the low muscle fatigue impact associated with RALS? The investigators also hypothesize that mental imagery, inducing a flow state associated with overall cortical synchronisation could decrease cognitive demands experienced by surgeons and potentially mitigate against the cognitive fatigue surgeons experience whilst performing procedures.
The goal of this preference-based pilot study will be to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and impact of a 12-week exercise intervention on oncology care provider burnout, compassion fatigue, and well-being. Participants will be divided into one of three exercise groups. Group assignment will be based on participant preference. Group 1: Supervised circuit-based resistance exercise (2 days/week) Group 2: Supervised circuit-based resistance exercise (2 days/week) + moderate-to-high intensity home-based walking/light jogging program (3 days/week) Group 3: Self-paced home-based walking program (3 days/week)
Range of motion exercises is a simple nursing action that has many benefits and is easy to perform independently . Hemodialysis patients are less active and have low intrinsic motivation for physical activity compared to sedentary healthy individuals. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of joint range of motion exercises on fatigue and sleep quality in patients receiving hemodialysis treatment. As a result of the literature review; The lack of a study on this subject and the inclusion of nurses, who play an important role in symptom management, in care interventions that are easy to learn and without complications, increase the quality of care.
