“…From secondary supported studies for our results, Abd El Bakya and Adel Elhakk [18] reported that there was a significant improvement in both physical fitness and fatigue levels in children who survived ALL with the inclusion of a 16-week aerobic exercise training program with a home exercise program. Moreover, Adamsen et al [22] showed that a high-intensity exercise program for 6 weeks led to an improvement in VO2 max by 16% in patients with cancer, including leukemia.…”

“…According to San Juan et al [17] and Abd El Bakya and Adel Elhakkb [18], the patients of group A received aerobic exercises using a RAM model (770 CF) electronic treadmill (two sessions/week, with each session lasting from 20 to 35 min). The patients were started with at least 50% of maximum heart rate (HRmax), which was measured with 220 − age, and 70% HRmax at the end of the 12th week of the program.…”

Background The treatment for children and adolescents with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) can lead to multiple adverse effects, including poor physical capacity and muscle weakness. This study aimed to determine which is more effective, aerobic exercises or modified strength training program, on muscle strength and quality of life (QOL) for children with ALL. Results In terms of muscle strength, there was a significant difference (P < 0.05) in selected group of muscles elbow flexors, shoulder abductors, hip flexors, knee extensors, and ankle dorsiflexors at both sides in group B compared with group A, whereas there was no significant difference (P > 0.05) between groups on QOL. Conclusion The outcomes of the study showed that there was a significant difference in the selected group of muscles at both sides in group B compared with group A; thus, the modified strength training program is more effective for muscle strength of children with ALL than aerobic training, but there was no significant difference between them on QOL. Trial registration The clinical trial registered in clinicaltrials.gov with an identifier number NCT03147365

“…Latihan fisik ini bertujuan untuk mengatasi kelelahan yang diharapkan lebih efektif dan efisien waktu pada anak-anak yang mengalami kelelahan pada penderita LLA. Anak-anak juga memiliki kemampuan beradaptasi yang lebih baik terhadap pelatihan serta jaringan tubuh mereka yang lebih elastis dan lebih fleksibel dibandingkan pasien dewasa (Baky & Elhakk, 2017).…”

“…Melalui program latihan aerobik ini dapat membantu suplai oksigen ke jaringan yang mengarah pada peningkatan kebugaran pernapasan, hal ini disebabkan oleh pengaruh senam aerobik terhadap fungsi pernapasan dan kapasitas kerja jantung. Hal tersebut diyakini sangat berpengaruh dalam mengatasi masalah fisik terkait kanker serta meningkatkan kualitas hidup anak-anak yang mengalami LLA (Baky & Elhakk, 2017).…”

Cancer related fatigue (CRF) is a serious symptom and often appears in pediatric patients with ALL, during chemotherapy and also at the end of treatment. The aim of this literature study is to look at physical exercises that can be done to reduce fever symptoms in pediatric patients with ALL. This research uses literature study with descriptive type of study. Obtained 3 articles using keywords, articles were obtained from Google Scholar, Proquest, and Pubmed. The three articles published between 2011-2021 with the research methods of each article were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-experimental. Based on the results of several research articles, it was found that physical exercise combined with aerobics was proven to be effective in dealing with fatigue, increasing muscle strength and improving the quality of life of pediatric patients with ALL. This is consistent with studies that the advantage of physical exercise is hypertrophy, namely an increase in the mass of muscle cells that is triggered by neural factors in a repetitive exercise program. Meanwhile, aerobic exercise is related to the function of the respiratory system and stroke volume.

“…Resultados similares se encontraron en el estudio de diseño ensayo clínico controlado elaborado por Lam y colaboradores y realizado en China, que respalda los resultados encontrados en esta revisión integrativa ya que mostraron niveles estadísticamente significativos (p=0,010) más bajos de fatiga a los 9 meses después del inicio de un programa de ejercicios de estiramiento y relajación, ejercicios de fortalecimiento y resistencia, y ejercicios aeróbicos en interiores y exteriores, que incluyeron actividades físicas de intensidad baja a moderada; en niños y adolescentes de entre 9 y 18 años, diagnosticados con tumores sólidos y líquidos (178). De igual manera, el estudio de diseño prospectivo aleatorizado controlado elaborado por Baky y colaboradores, realizado en Egipto, informó niveles estadísticamente significativos (p=0,05) para la reducción de la fatiga, con un programa en el hogar de ejercicios aeróbicos de intensidad moderada definidos como ejercicio submáximo, rítmico y repetitivo de un gran grupo de músculos, durante el cual la energía necesaria es suministrada por el oxígeno inspirado mismo que tuvo una duración 16 semanas, en niños y adolescentes con edades comprendidas entre 8 y 16 años, con diagnóstico de leucemia linfoide aguda (179).…”

Introducción: el cáncer en la infancia provoca un cambio radical en el entorno externo e interno del niño o adolescente afectando su desarrollo y crecimiento. Objetivo: sintetizar los hallazgos que publicaron resultados en salud física, psicológica, social e inmunitaria mediante uso de distracción en niños y adolescentes con diagnóstico oncológico desde 2011 hasta 2020. Metodología: revisión integrativa de literatura, cualitativa de alcance descriptivo y retrospectivo fundamentada en parámetros establecidos por Whittemore y Knafl con cinco etapas. Se elaboró pregunta PICOT. Criterios de inclusión: artículos científicos que usaron distracción en niños y adolescentes entre 0 a 18 años con diagnóstico oncológico, publicados en revistas indexadas en 15 bases de datos. Idiomas: inglés, portugués y español, entre el 2011 al 2020, clasificados por tipo de estudio y nivel de evidencia según Lobiondo Nivel I, II y III, estudios con asignación al azar, con grupo control independiente y separado, basados en evaluación critica utilizando herramientas del Instituto Joanna Briggs. Resultados: las estrategias de distracción usadas en niños y adolescentes con diagnóstico oncológico incluyeron: ejercicio, juego, masaje, música y terapias complementarias realizadas en diferentes escenarios que obtuvieron resultados significativos en la salud física, psicológica, social e inmunitaria. Conclusiones: con el uso de la distracción en el ámbito hospitalario o no hospitalario se logran beneficios en la salud minimizando los efectos secundarios y adversos que surgen por el diagnóstico oncológico o el tratamiento, demostrando ser intervención para el cuidado de enfermería en población pediátrica oncológica. Palabras claves: neoplasias, niño, salud, distracción, enfermería oncológica.
