Home Based Exercise Program for Elderly Cancer Patients
Single Institution Randomized Controlled Study of a Home Based Exercise Program to Reduce Functional Decline, Cancer Related Fatigue (CRF and Improve Quality of Life for the Elderly Gynecologic Oncology Patient)
Implementation of a home based exercise program to reduce functional decline, cancer related fatigue (CRF) and improve quality of life in the elderly gynecologic oncology patient
Problem:
Can prevention of CRF and loss of function improve QOL in the elderly gynecologic oncology patient undergoing chemotherapy?
Support:
Fatigue and its impact on QOL is a major concern with the elderly patient receiving chemotherapy. When compared to younger adults QOL is more important than gain in survival for elderly patients. (Eyigor, et al., 2010).
The National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommends exercise as the most effective intervention for cancer related fatigue.
Methods:
This is a single institution randomized controlled study to evaluate a home based exercise program in elderly gynecologic oncology patients undergoing chemotherapy. Subjects will be randomized to the intervention group or to the control group receiving usual care.
Intervention group will receive a home exercise program 3 days weekly consisting of 30mins of strength and aerobic activity, utilizing a follow along exercise DVD and patient log to assist with compliance.
The two groups will be compared by 1) objective PT assessment with the Berg Balance and 6 minute walk test (before or after) Cycle 1 and 6, 2) subjective nursing assessment with the NHANES (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey) and FACIT- F (Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy: Fatigue) prior to Cycle 1 (baseline),4 (midpoint), and following cycle 6 (completion).
Conclusion:
PT directed home exercise program may improve CRF, functional decline, and QOL in elderly gynecologic oncology patients undergoing chemotherapy.

Eksperimentell: Intervention
Subjects randomized to intervention will receive Physical Therapist instructed exercise teaching.
They will receive a home exercise DVD and flip ring of exercises.
Subjects will be asked to perform home exercise 3 days weekly consisting of 13 strengthening/stretching exercises and 20 mins of aerobic exercise, walking or seated aerobics using ergometer.
Subjects will record their exercise on a log and return on day 1 of every cycle.
