ABSTRACT
Objective:
This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of an intervention that applied a behavioral change approach to the usual rehabilitation for patients with hematological malignancies undergoing chemotherapy.Methods:
Patients with hematological malignancies undergoing chemotherapy were divided into two groups patients who underwent conventional rehabilitation (control group, n=12) and a counterpart who received a behavioral change intervention with feedback on motor function and physical activity (feedback group, n=13). We analyzed the changes in motor function and physical activity between the two groups from the start of rehabilitation to discharge.Results:
There were a significant difference in walking speed between baseline and discharge. Changes in weekly steps were significantly higher in the feedback group than those in the control group.Conclusion:
A behavioral change intervention with feedback on motor function and physical activity may improve voluntary exercise in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing chemotherapy.
