Filter by:Patients with lung cancer have poor physical activity and increased sedentary behavior, with the presence of high levels of fatigue. A randomized controlled trial will be carried out to compare usual care versus a personalized exercise program in the community, in order to explore the changes on physical activity and sedentary behavior and its impact on cancer-related fatigue.
The purpose of this 32 week study is to use an innovative experimental design known as SMART (Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial), which will allow us to determine the best way to sequence the delivery of teleexercise (referred to as an adaptive intervention), combined with predictive analytics on participant adherence in a stepped program of physical activity interventions. All 257 participants will have access to a library of recorded video exercise content, and a weekly wellness article. Some participants will receive health coaching calls (1st randomization). Analytic data will be used to determine which participants are responding or not responding to the intervention. Participants not responding after 4 weeks will receive either live one on one or group exercise training (2nd randomization). After 8 weeks, the participant will receive only pre recorded exercise content and articles for another 8 weeks. After final surveys, participants will have open access to the website for another 16 weeks where we will passively observe their fitbit and website data. The study outcomes are: The effectiveness of the adaptive interventions Exploring mediating and moderating variables Sensitivity analysis of the predictive analytics
the study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of aerobic training for decreasing fatigue severity and increasing quality of life in elderly with idiopathic chronic
Detecting fatigue experienced during pregnancy and intervening with an effective intervention has an important place in both improving the comfort during pregnancy and the healthy progress of pregnancy, birth and postpartum period. Determining the severity of fatigue experienced during pregnancy and identifying risk factors can help midwives design adequate and effective interventions for pregnant women in this sensitive period (Çoban & Yanıkkerem, 2010; Türkmen, 2014). The planned research was aimed to examine the effect of the pregnancy pillow used in the last trimester on fatigue and comfort.
The aim of this observational study is to identify the social and demographic determinants of fatigue in patients with inflammatory bowel disease in remission. Secondly, the objectives of the study are to: - Assess the impact of fatigue on the quality of life of patients with inflammatory bowel disease in remission. - To determine the profile of patients with inflammatory bowel disease in remission who are fatigued. To this end, during a consultation or hospitalization, participants will be asked to respond independently to various questionnaires (FACIT-F, DIPCare, SSQ6, questionnaire on socio-demographic determinants and IBD disk). Characteristics of the type of chronic inflammatory bowel disease will be collected from medical records. There will be no patient follow-up as part of the study. Participants may be contacted by telephone by the center's investigator within 2 weeks of the interview in the event of a partial or imprecise response.
This is a study aiming to investigate the effects of acute muscle fatigue on muscle properties, balance and foot plantar pressure in healthy young adults (having no chronic diseases or orthopaedic diseases and physically active). This study also aims to compare the effects of foot muscle fatigue and hip muscle fatigue on balance and foot plantar pressure. The exercises for ankle muscle fatigue are heel rise with bending your knee and heel raise without bending your knees. The exercise for hip muscle fatigue is a single-leg squat. Before and after completing these all exercises, the balance is evaluated with an isokinetic balance device, the foot plantar pressure is evaluated with a pedobarography device and finally, the muscle properties are evaluated with a myotonPro device. All assessment devices are non-invasive.
Fatigue is a prevalent and disabling symptom in Multiple Sclerosis (MS), affecting up to 90% of patients. Current treatments, including off-label prescriptions of wake-promoting agents, have shown limited effectiveness. Previous research indicates that these agents may be beneficial specifically for MS patients with concomitant excessive daytime sleepiness. This study uses a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover design. Participants will undergo a 10-day lead-in with he medication/placebo, followed by two four-week treatment periods separated by a one-week washout. Outcomes will be measured primarily using the Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS), with additional exploratory measures collected via a smartphone app that assesses fatigue through keystroke dynamics. This novel approach to fatigue measurement aims to capture real-time variations and provide more granular data than traditional self-report questionnaires.
Chronic fatigue is enhanced by adapted physical activity (APA) programs. Patients consulting on St Etienne hospital and suffering from fibromyalgia and long Covid benefit from a 4-6 week APA program, with 2 sessions per week. While most patients are improved by these exercise-training programs, for some the benefits remain very modest, and patients describe persistent fatigue. The literature unanimously describes the necessity of longer APA protocols (8-12 weeks, 2-3 sessions/week) for fatigue reduction in fibromyalgia and long Covid. However, it seems difficult to adhere to an optimal program as described in the literature for these fatigued patients. The investigators want to test a device that would both reduce fatigue and improve recovery between APA sessions, in order to gradually reach the recommendations for APA practice. Transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (tVNS) seems to be a promising approach. Thus, combining an APA intervention with a tVNS protocol could potentiate the expected and now well-known effect of exercise.
Long COVID or post-COVID-19 syndrome is a complex syndrome that affects people following SARS-CoV-2 infection. This currently affects 1.4 million Canadians, with the most common symptom being fatigue. This feasibility trial will compare a newly developed rehabilitation program (COVIDEx) for treating post-COVID-19 fatigue to standard of care. The experimental treatment group will receive an 8-week multi-modal rehabilitation program with two 50-minute sessions per week. Sixty participants will be recruited and randomly assigned to the COVIDEx program or standard of care and will be followed for 24 weeks.
