The Five-time-sit-to-stand test, Hand-Grip-Strength, 6 min walking test, Brief fatigue inventory, Hospital anxiety and Depression scale were used. Descriptive statistics and t-tests.
Results
Participants were 112 patients (48y [29-75]), 60.7% women and 39.2% men. The primary cancer was 26.7 % breast, 16.9% gasrtoesophageal 33.6% colorectal, 16.8% lung, 5.96% pancreatobiliary. Before rehabilitation: the Five-time-sit-to-stand test 10.2 sec (4.5-28.1), Hand-Grip-Strength 28.4 kg, 6 min walking test 482 meters (49,631), Brief fatigue inventory 45 (0-75), Fatique 8/10 (0,10), Cognitive 6, Emotional 4, Physical 6, QoL 4 (0-10). HADS 8 (0, 18). After rehabilitation: the Five-time-sit-to-stand test 5.7 sec (-50%), Hand-Grip-Strength 39.2 kg, 6 min walking test 585 meters (62,822), Brief fatigue inventory 25 (0-58), Fatique 3/10 (0,10), Cognitive 3, Emotional 1, Physical 4, QoL 7 (0-10).
