Impact of Baduanjin Qigong Exercise on Fatigue in Patients With NSCLC Undergoing Adjuvant Chemotherapy...
FatigueBaduanjin,a type of Qigong which belongs to aerobic exercise, is very popular in China. There is increasing evidence to support its positive effects on health outcomes in various groups of people with physical and mental disorders. In college students, it may enhance cardio respiratory function, lower limb function, and flexibility compared with usual exercise. However, there is no previous relevant randomized controlled trials on the health promoting effects of Baduanjin exercise in targeted fatigued lung cancer patients. Lung cancer survivors can experience fatigue due to multiple reasons that can strongly impact their quality of life throughout the remainder of their life. Therefore, this randomized controlled trial in China was designed to assess the health promoting effects of Baduanjin exercise in fatigued lung cancer patients with the expectation of improvement in physical and psychological health.
Surface Electromyography Study of Fatigue in Diabetic Neuropathy
NeuropathyDiabetes MellitusFatigue in diabetic neuropathy compromises patients' physical activity and poses questions on how to plan correct rehabilitation training. Conclusive interpretation of muscular mechanisms of fatigue in diabetic neuropathy has not yet been achieved. Among the various instrumental evaluations for fatigue, multichannel surface electromyography (sEMG) is a recognized tool that permits the study of myoelectric manifestations of fatigue. Aim of the study is to assess if differences in myoelectric manifestations of fatigue between patients affected by diabetic neuropathy exist after an aerobic or endurance training.
The Effect of Reiki Application on Pain, Fatigue and Sleep Quality in Elderly Persons Staying in...
PainTiredness1 moreA person's life is a stage that passes in the time interval that ends with his birth when he opens his eyes to the world and his death when he closes his eyes to the world. Old age is a forced end for all people. Sleep is one of the most important and basic human needs. It prepares the individual for a new day by resting the body, strengthening and regulating the cerebral functions and repairing the brain. While a change in sleep pattern and quality affects a person's daily life activities, long-term persistence of this change may lead to deterioration of body and mental health.During Reiki practices, the hands are held in each position for 3-5 minutes by touching the head, neck, chest, abdominal cavity and groin. In problem areas, this time can be extended to 10-20 minutes. The duration of treatment lasts an average of 30-90 minutes. During the application, the person is in a lying or lying position and does not need to take off his clothes.
The Individual Response of Healthy Individuals to Mental Fatigue
Mental FatigueThe objective of the present study is to confirm and map out the presence of interindividual differences in the effect of mental fatigue on both physical and cognitive performance, and to see if these differences are related to individual factors of the participants.
Effect of Self-care Skill Education on the Compassionate Satisfaction and Compassionate Fatigue...
Self-careCompassion Satisfaction2 moreThe health of our nurses is perhaps the most important consideration for delivering excellent patient care. The passionate approach of nurses can lead to a lot of fatigue and stress among nurses. Their health is perhaps the most important consideration for delivering excellent patient care. Self-care provides nurses with the framework for managing professional burnout, compassion fatigue, and traumatic stress. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of self-care skill educational intervention on increasing compassion satisfaction and reducing compassionate fatigue among clinical nurses. The interactive Self-care skill education will be administrated and evaluated.
An Alternative Approach to Fatigue and Comfort Levels in Hemodialysis Patients: Reiki Energy Therapy....
HemodialysisChronic renal failure (CRF) is a chronic and progressive kidney disease caused by impaired metabolic and endocrine functions as a result of a decrease in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), the role of the kidney in maintaining fluid electrolyte balance. KRG, which has high mortality and morbidity, is defined as an important public health problem due to the fact that it also causes a great burden on health systems. Reiki is not an alternative to allopathic medicine; it is a "complementary" therapy that can be applied together with all other medical and therapeutic techniques. It has been reported that the deep relaxation created by Reiki relieves anxiety, stress and pain perception and promotes a feeling of psycho-spiritual well-being. Reiki strengthens the energy pathways and meridians, facilitates the natural process of healing. It regulates the energy systems of the body that are blocked by stress or a negative situation. Reiki, which is applied for various purposes, ensures that blood and lymph circulation continue in a healthy way, stimulates the autonomic nervous system. In this way, reiki facilitates physical and spiritual relaxation and strengthens health.

Orthopedic SurgeryThis study was planned to determine the effect of progressive relaxation exercise to be applied after major orthopedic surgery on post-operative fatigue and comfort level.
Health Education Materials With/Out a Physical Activity Program for Patients Who Have Undergone...
Anxiety DisorderCognitive/Functional Effects6 moreRATIONALE: Participating in a physical activity program designed to increase free time physical activity and receiving written health education materials may influence the chance of cancer recurring as well as impact on physical fitness, psychological well-being and the quality of life of patients who have undergone surgery and chemotherapy for colon cancer. It is not yet known whether giving a physical activity program together with health education materials is more effective than giving health education materials alone for patients who have undergone colon cancer treatment. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying a physical activity program given together with health education materials to see how well it works compared with giving health education materials alone for patients who have undergone treatment for high-risk stage II or stage III colon cancer.
Mechanisms to Reduce Mental and Physical Fatigue Following Exercise Training in Older Adults
FatigueAgingFatigue is a strong predictor of negative health outcomes in older adults. The research in this study will compared the effects of 8-weeks of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs: dietary supplements commonly taken to improve muscle growth and exercise performance) added to exercise on fatigue compared to exercise with a placebo (an inactive, harmless substance). BCAAs could have an impact on improving fatigue common in older adults, especially when exercising.
Comparison of the Effects of One-Legged and Two-Legged Exercise Training on Exercise Capacity and...
Pulmonary SarcoidosisPulmonary rehabilitation is a key element in the management of people with chronic respiratory disease. A properly followed supervised physical training program in sarcoidosis is safe and has no absolute contraindications. Fatigue can also be associated with sarcoidosis for different reasons. Individualized rehabilitation training can improve the symptoms of patients with sarcoidosis. There is no study in the literature investigating the effectiveness of one-legged exercises that reduce peripheral muscle use, in patients with sarcoidosis. In our study, these two exercise methods will be compared by applying one-legged exercise training and two-legged exercise training. The effect of one-legged exercise training on exercise capacity and fatigue in sarcoidosis patients will be examined. The primary aim of our study is to compare the effects of one-legged exercise training, which is a current exercise approach, and two-legged exercise training on exercise capacity and fatigue in patients with sarcoidosis. The secondary aim is to examine the effect of this exercise training on peripheral muscle strength and quality of life parameters.
