Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Baduanjin，a type of Qigong which belongs to aerobic exercise, is very popular in China. There is increasing evidence to support its positive effects on health outcomes in various groups of people with physical and mental disorders. In college students, it may enhance cardio respiratory function, lower limb function, and flexibility compared with usual exercise. However, there is no previous relevant randomized controlled trials on the health promoting effects of Baduanjin exercise in targeted fatigued lung cancer patients. Lung cancer survivors can experience fatigue due to multiple reasons that can strongly impact their quality of life throughout the remainder of their life. Therefore, this randomized controlled trial in China was designed to assess the health promoting effects of Baduanjin exercise in fatigued lung cancer patients with the expectation of improvement in physical and psychological health.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Intervention group

Participants in the intervention group received two months of Baduanjin exercise training provided by the specialist coach 3 days per week in Hubei Cancer Hospital, and they were also required to do Baduanjin exercise at home for the remaining 4 days each week for at least 20 min per day. All the participants are requested to monitor and record adverse effects during their exercise sessions.

Intervention Type OTHER

Baduanjin is very popular in China. There is increasing evidence to support its positive effects on health outcomes in various groups of people with physical and mental disorders.

Control group

Participants in the control group were requested to maintain their original daily physical activity for no less than 20 min per day over the following 6-month period and record their daily activity at home by themselves. These data were collected by a researcher during the participants' time in the study and at the 6-month follow-up at the hospital. After the 6-month follow-up, the participants were provided with 1-month professional Baduanjin exercise guidance by the trial's specialist coach for free if they wished.
