“…Rimes and Windgrove conducted a mindfulness based cognitive therapy (MCBT) pilot study (n = 35) for patients with chronic fatigue syndrome who are still suffering from fatigue after CBT. They gained promising results showing significant improvements in fatigue and depressed mood [94] Other studies have found MCBT useful in chronic cancer related fatigue also [95].…”

“…Since advances in the treatment of cancer as well as chronic illnesses have afforded patients longer survival, there has been renewed interest in managing persistent, complex, and distressing symptoms that affect health-related quality of life (QoL) and productivity. One of the most common and debilitating side effects of RT is fatigue [1, 2]. Cancer-related fatigue can persist for months to years after treatment completion, with about 25–33% of cancer patients reporting persistent fatigue [1, 3].…”

Co-Occurring Symptoms Contribute to Persistent Fatigue in Prostate Cancer

Purpose: Cancer-related fatigue is one of the most debilitating side effects of cancer and cancer therapy. We aimed to investigate co-occurring symptoms associated with persistent fatigue in men receiving external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for nonmetastatic prostate cancer. Methods: A sample of 47 men with prostate cancer scheduled to receive radiotherapy (RT) were followed at baseline and 1 year after RT. Clinical and demographic data were obtained from chart review. Symptom measurements included urinary dysfunction (American Urological Association symptoms score), fatigue (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy – Fatigue questionnaire), sleep disturbance (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System – Sleep Disturbance form), pain (physical well-being domain pain item of the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy – General), and depressive symptoms (Hamilton Depression Rating Scale). Paired t tests, correlations, general linear models, and logistic regressions were used to determine associations between fatigue and other symptom scores. Results: At 1 year after RT, 34% of subjects continued to experience fatigue. Urinary dysfunction was the best clinical predictor of persistent fatigue. Pain and depressive symptoms further improved the predictive power of the model. A multivariate linear regression model containing all these three clinical variables (urinary dysfunction, pain, and depressive symptoms) explained 74% of total variance associated with persistent fatigue after RT. Conclusions: Persistent fatigue at 1 year after EBRT in prostate cancer survivors is likely related to a cluster of symptoms elicited by chronic inflammation. Therapies that target each of these symptoms will likely reduce fatigue in this patient population.

“…En los artículos seleccionados se halló el mindfulness con aplicación a la patología oncológica [7,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63], así como su uso en otras patologías crónicas [4,18,64,65]. Se ha demostrado su efecto fisiológico en la reducción de marcadores de ansiedad, como la respuesta humana al cortisol [66,67].…”

ResumenEn el paciente médicamente enfermo, las intervenciones farmacológicas o psicoterapéuticas habituales caen en desuso por particularidades propias de la hospitalización y la comorbilidad física; por ello se hace necesario identificar diferentes estrategias que permitan incidir benéficamente en la calidad de vida de este grupo de pacientes. Objetivo: Realizar una revisión narrativa de la literatura que permita identificar estrategias terapéuticas que hayan demostrado efectividad en el proceso de este grupo de pacientes. Metodología: Revisión narrativa de literatura. Resultados: Se identificaron 10 corrientes terapéuticas no farmacológicas que han demostrado mejoría en indicadores como percepción de dolor, mejoría en calidad de vida, regulación de alteraciones del patrón de sueño, fatiga, en el contexto de pacientes con enfermedad crónica, que puede encontrarse en entornos tan diversos como son los pacientes de oncología o de las unidades de dolor crónico. Conclusiones: Las intervenciones no farmacológicas han demostrado efectividad en el control de síntomas físicos y emocionales en pacientes con enfermedad crónica y son herramientas con las que debe contar el profesional en salud mental.
