Abstract:
Objective:To retrieve and summarize the evidence of exercise guidance programs for patients with gynecological malignant tumors and lower extremity lymphedema, so as to provide a reference for medical and nursing staff to formulate and standardize the treatment and management of lower extremity lymphedema.Methods:This study used the population, intervention, professional, outcome, setting, type of evidence (PIPOST) tool to clarify evidence-based issues and set retrieval strategies, and include and exclude criteria. Guidelines, expert consensus, systematic reviews, original studies and other evidence related to gynecological malignant tumor-related lower extremity lymphedema exercises were systematically searched in common databases at home and abroad. The search time limit was from the establishment of the database to March 31, 2021. The quality evaluation of the articles was independently completed by two researchers systematically trained in evidence-based nursing.Results:A total of 16 articles were included, including 5 systematic reviews, 4 guidelines, 4 original studies, and 3 expert consensus. A total of 24 pieces of evidence were summarized from six aspects, namely, taboo population, exercise evaluation, exercise plan, exercise intensity, precautions and health education.Conclusions:The best evidence of exercise programs for patients with gynecological malignant tumor-related lower extremity lymphedema is collected and analyzed, and specific recommendations are put forward. Reliable evidence-based evidence and reference opinions are provided to standardize the use and practice of exercise programs for patients with gynecological malignant tumor-related lower limb lymphedema, so as to reduce the degree of lymphedema in patients and improve their quality of life.
