Clinical Scorecard: Impact of Aerobic versus Resistance Training on Sleep Quality and Cancer-Related Fatigue in Breast Cancer Patients Undergoing Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy: A Three-Arm Randomized Controlled Study
At a Glance
Category
Detail
Condition
Breast Cancer
Key Mechanisms
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) impacts cancer-related fatigue (CRF) and sleep quality.
Target Population
Adult female patients with breast cancer scheduled for NACT.
Care Setting
Oncology training facilities, supervised by trained personnel.
Key Highlights
Breast cancer accounts for 23.8% of all cancer cases globally.
NACT is widely accepted for tumor shrinkage prior to surgery.
Exercise interventions may alleviate CRF and improve sleep quality during NACT.
ACSM recommends at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise three times per week.
Limited evidence exists on the effects of exercise during NACT specifically.
Guideline-Based Recommendations
Diagnosis
Patients should be evaluated for CRF and sleep disturbances during NACT.
Management
Implement aerobic or resistance training interventions during NACT.
Monitoring & Follow-up
Assess CRF and sleep quality at multiple time points during and after NACT.
Risks
Patients with contraindications for exercise should be excluded from interventions.
Patient & Prescribing Data
Adult female patients with breast cancer undergoing NACT.
Exercise interventions can be initiated before surgery to improve outcomes.
Clinical Best Practices
Supervise exercise interventions with trained personnel.
Provide standardized instructions for exercise performance.
Encourage participation in small group settings for support.
