摘要
A comprehensive review of the recent literature reveals that exercise has a positive effect on a broad range of quality-of-life parameters after patients are diagnosed as having cancer. The general exercise prescription is moderate-intensity exercise, 3 to 5 days per week,20 to 30 minutes per session. Conditions that warrant prescription modification include fatigue periods during treatment, acute or chronic physical impairments that may have resulted from surgery or adjuvant therapy, and the presence of bone cancer. Research suggests that physicians who prescribe exercise improve motivation and adherence in their patients who have cancer.
