ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
This systematic review aimed to appraise the current available evidence regarding the effects of exercise prehabilitation and rehabilitation on perceived health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and fatigue in patients undergoing surgery for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).METHODS:
Studies were selected according to Cochrane guidelines and assessed for methodological quality and therapeutic quality (the international CONsensus on Therapeutic Exercise aNd Training (i-CONTENT)). Eligible studies included patients with NSCLC performing exercise prehabilitation and/or rehabilitation and postoperative HRQoL and fatigue up to 90-days postoperatively.RESULTS:
Thirteen studies were included. Exercise prehabilitation and rehabilitation significantly improved postoperative HRQoL in almost half of the studies (47%), although none of the studies demonstrated a decrease in fatigue. Methodological quality and therapeutic quality were poor in respectively 62% and 69% of the studies.CONCLUSION:
There was an inconsistent effect of exercise prehabilitation and exercise rehabilitation on improving HRQoL in patients with NSCLC undergoing surgery, with no effect on fatigue. Due to the low methodological and therapeutic quality of included studies, it was not possible to identify the most effective training program content to improve HRQoL and reduce fatigue. It is recommended to investigate the impact of a high therapeutic qualified exercise prehabilitation and exercise rehabilitation on HRQoL and fatigue in larger studies.Palabras clave
