Abstrakt: | Purpose: This prospective trial's objective was to determine feasibility and outcomes of an exercise-based intervention for rural overweight/obese female cancer survivors. Materials and Methods: Survivors of endometrial, breast, or ovarian cancer enrolled in a 6-month program of increased aerobic activity (30 minutes daily walking) and strength-training exercises using exercise bands (THERABAND; Akron, OH) with personalized telephone motivational coaching. Baseline demographics, anthropomorphic measurements, quality of life (QOL), fitness, and readiness to adopt exercise changes were assessed; daily steps, band use, and follow-up measurements were assessed at 3 and 6 months. Study completion was modeled using logistic regression. Results: The mean age of the 99 women was 59.9 years, the mean body mass index (BMI) was 35.9 kg/m 2 , 88.9% were white, and 41.4% reported current exercise. Fifty-five women (55.6%) completed the 6-month program, and 36 (36.4%) completed exercise interventions. Using logistic regression to model study completion, only baseline QOL scores (physical component summary) and mental component summary) remained significant predictors. The mean weight change was a gain (0.88 kg). Higher MCS baseline scores and prior regular exercise predicted continued exercise and increased step counts, whereas higher BMI and baseline sleep predicted decreased QOL. Top walking barriers were feeling unwell and weather; barriers to strength exercises were band dislike and pain. Conclusion: The most significant predictor of trial completion and improved exercise outcomes was a higher baseline mental QOL. Motivation, belief in the importance of exercise, and prescribed/monitored exercise regimens were not sufficient; supportive and cognitive behavioral therapy interventions for survivors are needed to sustain uptake. |
