Introdução: a fadiga é um dos efeitos adversos mais comuns decorrente da quimioterapia pós cancro da mama, e a realização de exercícios pode ser uma forma de minimizar esta situação. Objetivo: analisar o efeito de um programa de exercícios na redução da fadiga em mulheres com cancro da mama submetidas a quimioterapia. Método: a pesquisa foi realizada no mês de Março nas bases de dados Pubmed e PEDro, de modo a encontrar estudos randomizados controlados que abordassem a fadiga após quimioterapia, assim como os seus recursos terapêuticos utilizados em pacientes com cancro da mama. A pesquisa foi realizada em inglês. Resultados: Sete artigos foram incluídos para análise, e a sua qualidade metodológica foi avaliada através da escala de PEDro, com uma média de 6/10. A implementação de um programa de exercícios em mulheres com cancro da mama submetidas a quimioterapia mostrou-se benéfica na redução da fadiga. Os exercícios de intensidade moderada foram mais eficazes que os de alta intensidade. Um programa de caminhada pode também trazer benefícios, quando efetuado de modo isolado. A efetividade dos exercícios é mais evidente no imediato do que a longo prazo. Conclusão: pode-se sugerir que a implementação de um programa de exercícios tem um efeito positivo na redução da fadiga em mulheres com cancro da mama submetidas a quimioterapia, apesar de haver um número reduzido de estudos e estes apresentarem grande variabilidade metodológica.
Background: fatigue is one of the most common adverse effects of chemotherapy after breast cancer, and exercise can be a way to minimize this situation. Objective: to analyze the effect of na exercise program on reducing fatigue in women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. Objective: to analyse the effect of an exercise programme on reducing fatigue in women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. Methodology: the search was performed in March in the Pubmed and PEDro databases to find randomized controlled studies that addressed fatigue after chemotherapy, as well as its therapeutic resources used in patients with breast cancer. The search was conducted in English. Results: Seven articles were included for analysis, and their methodological quality was assessed through the PEDro scale, with an average of 6/10. The implementation of an exercise program in women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy proved beneficial in reducing fatigue. Moderate intensity exercises were more effective than high intensity ones. A walking programme can also bring benefits when done alone. The effectiveness of exercise is more evident in the immediate than in the long term. Conclusion: it can be suggested that the implementation of an exercise programme has a positive effect in reducing fatigue in women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy, although there are few studies and this presente great methodological variability.
