Study Description

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of physical training program to improve deep stabilizer muscle in colorectal cancer survivors

Detailed Description: Background: Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer when considering both genders. Musculoskeletal alterations have been described related to techniques used during surgery, that it produces an inhibition of deep abdominal muscles. These muscles are in charge of lumbopelvic stabilization muscle linked to reduced ability to maintain independence in daily activity life that could have affected their quality of life Objective: The aim objective will be evaluated short and long-term effects of physical activity program for muscle stabilization. Methods: 20 colorectal cancer survivors will be recruited from the Department of Oncology of Clínico San Cecilio Hospital. Patients will be randomized in physical activity program group and usual care group. Physical activity groups will receive an eight week program form improve the muscle stabilization. Discussion: Researchers attempts to increase the fitness level and reduce musculoskeletal disorders in colorectal cancer survivors through a physical activity interventions focusing in muscle stabilization.
