Brief summary
Cancer treatments usually include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hormone therapy, and/or a combination of these methods. These treatments cause many physical and psychological effects that interfere with functional independence, performing activities of daily living, and healthy quality of life. Mostly, depending on cancer and its treatment; Cognitive function, sleep pattern, functional capacity, pain state and bone mineral density are affected. Exercise compliance is the degree to which an individual's behavior is consistent with the health care provider's advice and treatment plan. According to the World Health Organization, compliance is a measure of a person's behavior (such as following a recommended exercise program, monitoring drug intake, etc.). ) as a response to complying with recommendations deemed appropriate by health care professionals''. In the field of rehabilitation too, compliance is increasingly used in relation to the self-management of patients' health. It has been stated in the studies that the level of compliance with the recommended home exercise is generally low, which limits the benefits of exercise programs.
Detailed description
This study is a cross-sectional study. Lung cancer patients who applied to the Oncology Service and met the inclusion criteria will be included in the study. Patients will be randomly assigned to physical activity counseling and education groups. Within the scope of the study, exercise compliance will be examined in patients with lung cancer who are given calisthenic exercise. Participants will be evaluated before treatment, their functional capacities will be determined, their compliance with exercise, fatigue levels, pain levels, cognitive status, sleep and quality of life will be evaluated with questionnaires. Home exercises will be taught to the physical activity counseling group and will be followed up under the supervision of a physiotherapist with weekly controls. Breathing exercises and calisthenic exercises will be taught to the training group, and participants will be followed under the supervision of a physiotherapist for 8 weeks, 3 days a week. Evaluations will be made before and after the treatment. Individuals who do not agree to / give up participating in the study will be able to leave the study voluntarily. All information belonging to individuals will be protected according to the personal data protection law.
Interventions
Before starting the exercise program, 10 repetitive warm-up exercises will be given including the lower and upper extremities and distal joints. The exercises will be started with 5 repetitions in the first week. Depending on the patient's tolerance, the intensity of the exercise will be increased as 10 repetitions, 15 repetitions and 20 repetitions, and optional rest will be allowed between exercises. It is aimed that the patients reach 20 repetitions in the 6th week at the latest.
