    BackgroundA tailored and reliable intervention program developed based on evidence is necessary for patients with serious health conditions.ObjectiveWe describe the development of an exercise program for HSCT patients based on evidence from a systematic process.MethodsWe developed the exercise program for HSCT patients using eight systematic steps: (1) a literature review, (2) understanding patient characteristics, (3) first expert group discussion, (4) development of the first draft of the exercise program, (5) a pre-test, (6) second expert group discussion, (7) a pilot randomized controlled trial (n=21), and (8) a focus group interview.ResultsThe developed exercise program was unsupervised and consisted of different exercises and intensities according to the patients’ hospital room and health condition. Participants were provided with instructions for the exercise program, exercise videos via smartphone, and prior education sessions. In the pilot trial, the adherence to the exercise program was only 44.7%, however, some changes in physical functioning and body composition favored the exercise group despite the small sample size.ConclusionStrategies to improve adherence to this exercise program and larger sample sizes are needed to adequately test if the developed exercise program may help patients improve physical and hematologic recovery after HSCT. This study may help researchers develop a safe and effective evidence-based exercise program for their intervention studies. Moreover, the developed program may benefit the physical and hematological recovery in patients undergoing HSCT in larger trials, if exercise adherence is improved.Clinical trial registrationhttps://cris.nih.go.kr/cris/search/detailSearch.do?seq=24233&search_page=L, identifier KCT 0008269.</p

    Models were adjusted for follow-up time and baseline values of age, sex, RHR, and estimated VO2max. Longitudinal subsample, the Fenland Study (n = 6,589). Each point represents 5% of the data in the binscatter plot. R values are sex-stratified partial correlation coefficients between change in supine resting heart rate and change in estimated maximal oxygen consumption, adjusted for covariates listed above. P-values for all partial correlation coefficients are less than 0.0001.</p

    Associations between resting heart rate and estimated maximal oxygen consumption expressed per kg total-body mass, stratified by sex and adjusted for age (left column panels) or age, ethnicity, smoking, alcohol consumption, body mass index, physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE), moderate-vigorous PAEE (right column panels). Top: Seated resting heart rate. Middle: Supine resting heart rate. Bottom: Sleeping resting heart rate. The Fenland Study (n = 10,865). Each point represents 5% of data in the binscatter plots. r values are sex-stratified partial correlation coefficients between resting heart rate and estimated maximal oxygen consumption, adjusted for covariates listed above. P-values for all partial correlation coefficients are less than 0.0001.</p
