Abstract Background In order to counteract fatigue, physical activity (PA) is recommended for all stages of cancer. However, only few advanced cancer patients (ACP) are physically active. Quantitative data with high numbers ACP reporting barriers PA missing. This study aimed identify in tiredness/weakness and investigate their motivation towards it. Methods Outpatients metastatic receiving care at a German Cancer Center moderate/severe during self-assessment (MIDOS II) were enrolled. We...
Background Physical activities are important for the development of children and increasing evidence suggests beneficial effects physical activity promotion during cancer treatment as well. The present study aimed at evaluating current need exercise interventions in pediatric patients undergoing acute identifying risk factors inactivity. Procedure Data about self‐reported before was collected a cross‐sectional design with questionnaire from German Health Interview Examination Survey Children...
Background Due to growing evidence about the value of exercise in pediatric cancer patients, purpose this study was determine factors that influence participation physical activities and children adolescents during treatment. Procedure This cross-sectional qualitative included 40 patients intensive Patients were recruited at Department for Pediatric Hematology Oncology, University Hospital Muenster where a supervised program has been implemented hospital stays. The approach semi-structured...
Abstract Physical activity (PA) and exercise are safe beneficial for children adolescents affected by cancer. Yet, this population is not active enough to receive benefits. PA guideline recommendation statements can support individual behavior practice change. The purpose of project was develop the international Pediatric Oncology Exercise Guidelines (iPOEG), comprised statements, promote among Guideline development procedures, stakeholder engagement strategies, Delphi technique were used....
Existing research recognizes low levels of physical activity in pediatric patients with cancer, but much uncertainty exists about their capability to self-reflect levels. The objective this study was compare results subjective self-reports and accelerometers regarding daily walking as well moderate-to-vigorous activities.Results the assessment tool StepWatchTM Activity Monitor self-reporting a standardized questionnaire were compared 28 children adolescents during cancer treatment.The...
Abstract Background Pediatric cancer leads to reduced participation in exercise and only few patients comply with national physical activity recommendations. Physically inactive behavior hinders motor development increases psychological adverse effects of therapy incidence sequelae. Currently, there is neither nationwide coverage nor uniform level knowledge regarding promotion. The objective the guideline facilitate qualified interventions through standardized procedures addition regular...
Cancer diagnosis, treatment side effects and physical inactivity can lead to reduced muscle strength. Patients undergoing acute experience many burdens that restrict their mobility autonomy, leading limited independence loss of resources cope with everyday tasks. In this work, we analyse the status quo potential influencing factors for accomplishment activities daily living (ADLs) shortly after cancer diagnosis.We recruited participants ages 4-18 years diagnosed leukaemia or non-Hodgkin...
Resumption of physical activity and reintegration into social surroundings after treatment for pediatric cancer is high importance to recover from the burden disease positively influence long‐term health outcomes. Eighty‐three children who had completed intensive were surveyed regarding their participation in education at school (PES). The results show a concerning low rate participation, particularly treated bone tumors, associated barriers. Reported reasons quitting PES seem be conquerable...
Objectives: Exercise interventions during and after treatment for pediatric cancer are associated with beneficial physical, psychological, social effects. However, valid data about adverse events (AEs) of such have rarely been evaluated. This retrospective study evaluates AEs that occurred supervised oncological exercise programs patients survivors. Methods: Germany-wide used a self-administered online survey focusing on general program characteristics retrospectively 2019. The questionnaire...
Objectives Pediatric patients with cancer experience impairments in muscle strength and physical activity (PA) that may reduce autonomy during hospitalization. To determine the effects of exercise interventions on accomplishment activities daily living (ADLs), motor performance, PA children leukemia or non-Hodgkin lymphoma, we randomly allocated (4–18 years) immediately after diagnosis into two groups. Methods The intervention group (IG; n = 21) received a specific training combined standard...
Supervised exercise interventions during inpatient care are feasible. The objective was to evaluate the usability of activity trackers and centralised monitoring conduct a home-based intervention cancer treatment. primary endpoint confirmatory analysis achievement individual goals for daily steps, compared (A) in group (IG) over time (B) between IG control (CG). Secondary endpoints included active minutes effects on motor performance health-related quality life (hrQoL).Forty patients treated...
The diagnosis of cancer as well accompanying acute and late effects treatment are influencing physical activity behavior patients with childhood survivors. Research has shown that a pediatric is associated impairments performance, function, reduced physical, psychosocial, health conditions. From an ethical perspective, lack knowledge care providers, promotion, environmental, structural barriers to restrict children's right move actively engage in activities. Network ActiveOncoKids...
Survivors of childhood cancer represent a growing population with long life expectancy but high risks treatment-induced morbidity and premature mortality. Regular physical activity (PA) may improve their long-term health; however, high-quality empirical knowledge is sparse.The Physical Activity Fitness in Childhood Cancer (PACCS) study comprises 4 work packages (WPs) aiming for the objective determination PA self-reported health behavior, fatigue, quality (WP 1); fitness 2); evaluation...
