Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between physical activity and fatigue in patients with cancer.
Methods: The participants of the study were 118 patients who had been diagnosed with cancer at least more than three months before at a university hospital. Physical activity was measured by IPAQ Korean version (2006), and fatigue by the Revised Piper Fatigue Scale. The collected data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient.
Results: Continuous physical activity overall in this study was on average 2,154.03±2,845.86 MET, and the overall degree of fatigue of the participants was 4.47±1.80. There were significant negative correlations between fatigue and moderate physical activity.
