| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of the study was to prepare the program of rehabilitation for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy/radiotherapy. The first, the effects of heat stimulation for skeletal muscle were clarified using model rats as the assistant of muscle training. The second, factors affecting muscle strength in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy/radiotherapy were investigated. It was shown that fatigue was an important factor in patients with solid tumors, while anemia was an important factor in patients with hematological malignancies. On the basis of these results, a rehabilitation program with low-intensity exercise for cancer patients was suggested and the effects of that were examined. Our program was effective for improving physical functions and several symptoms when the program performed with high frequency: it might be become one of useful treatment strategies for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy/radiotherapy who cannot be adopted with the usual rehabilitation.
