Summary

APACCHE (Adapted Physical Activity and Cardiac Coherence in HEmatologic patients) study investigates effects of heart rate variability biofeedback training, combined with classical adapted physical activity, on health-related quality of life in patients previously treated for hematologic malignancies. It is a prospective, randomized clinical trial from University Hospital of Reunion Island. The main objective is evaluated with QLQ-C30 survey score differences.

PROCEDURE

Cardiac Coherence

* 10 sessions of HRV-BF (45mn) weekly over 12 weeks. HRV-BF is a cognitive behavioural therapy consisting on stress management training based on breathing. We use the SYMBIOLINE PC software to record the heart rate variability biofeedback, with an infrared plethysmograph sensor. The sensor is put on the finger, and the patient's HRV pattern is displayed in real time. * 24 APA sessions (1.5h) bi-weekly over 12 weeks. Each session includes aerobic exercises (walk, step) and resistant exercises (muscular reinforcement). This program is built on previous cancer studies to make it effective.
