简要总结
Gaining a greater understanding of how each exercise mode affects lymphedema, as well as other health-related outcomes will improve exercise prescription guidelines relevant to this specific lymphedema. Therefore, the purpose of this work was to compare the effects of Xbox kinect rehabilitation and resistance exercises on limb volume, symptoms severity, physical function, and quality of life in women with Breast cancer-related lymphedema.
详细描述
Breast cancer-related lymphedema is a common and debilitating side effect of cancer treatment. This study compared the effect of Xbox kinect rehabilitation and resistance exercises on breast cancer-related lymphedema volume and severity, as well as participant's physical function and quality of life. Women diagnosed with unilateral breast cancer related lymphedema were randomly divided into two groups: the kinect based rehabilitation group KBRG and resistance exercise group REG. woman in The KBRG received virtual reality therapy using Xbox Kinect-based games, the REG received resistance training in addition both groups received complex decongestive physiotherapy. The intervention was five sessions per week for 8 weeks. The outcome measures included limb volume, symptoms severity, physical function (muscle strength and range of motion) and quality of life. All these outcomes were assessed at pretreatment (baseline) and after the end of treatment at week eight (W8).

结局指标
主要结局
Health-related quality of life, Medical Outcomes Study short-form (SF-36)
时间窗: after 12 weeks
assessed using the Medical Outcomes Study short-form (SF-36). Outcomes of physical functioning, role-physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role emotional and mental health domains were reported as norm-based scores.
Limb volume measurement
时间窗: after 12 weeks
assessed by circumference measurements using a non-elastic tape. Measures started just distal to the metacarpal-phalangeal joints and were taken at 4-cm intervals up the arm until the base of the axilla.
次要结局
- Shoulder range of motion(after 12 weeks)
- Visual analogue scale(after 12 weeks)
- Muscle strength(after 12 weeks)
