Abstract | Aims and objectives: The aim of the study was to find out the effect of home based exercise on functional capacity and health related quality of life (HRQOL) of individuals having Advanced Lung Cancer & undergoing their first Chemotherapy session. Methodology: 12 subjects were recruited from Cancer Research Institute, Himalayan Hospital, Dehradun. The subjects were randomly divided into two groups. Group A was provided with Home based exercise protocol whereas Group B was kept as Control group. Home based exercise protocol was given in a printed manner (as a leaflet) and was followed on every alternate day for 3 weeks. EORTC QLQ 30, QLQ LC 13 and 6MWD were recorded prior to the 1st Chemotherapy session and 3 weeks post- 1st chemotherapy session. Results: The results of this study showed that, there was significant increase in the functional capacity in both the groups (Group A & B: Pre & Post, value of p : 0.014 & 0.003 respectively). But it was highly significant in the experimental group when compared with control group (p=0.003). Conclusion: The study concluded that the Home Based Exercise Protocol should be established as a treatment strategy to improve Health Related Quality of Life and Functional Capacity for Advanced Lung Cancer individuals undergoing their 1st Chemotherapy session. |
