Yoga in der supportiven Onkologie: Wie ist die Evidenz?
Yoga in Supportive Oncology: What is the Evidence?
Zusammenfassung
Yoga, ursprünglich eine spirituelle indische Praxis, ist längst als Präventionsmaßnahme etabliert, findet aber auch immer mehr seinen Weg in die unterstützende Therapie von chronischen Erkrankungen. In der supportiven Onkologie kann Yoga für verschiedene Symptome empfohlen werden. Die Evidenzlage überzeugt insbesondere zur Linderung von krebs- bzw. krebstherapieassoziierter Fatigue. Bei Patientinnen mit Mammakarzinom liegen darüber hinaus vielversprechende Studien zur Wirksamkeit von Yoga bei Ein- und Durchschlafstörungen und bei therapieassoziierten menopausalen Symptomen vor. Da unerwünschte Ereignisse unter Yoga nicht signifikant häufiger auftreten als bei anderen Formen körperlicher Aktivität oder unbehandelten Kontrollgruppen, ist insgesamt von einem positiven Nutzen-Risiko-Verhältnis für Patienten mit onkologischen Erkrankungen auszugehen.
Abstract
Yoga, originally a spiritual Indian practice, has long been established as a preventive means and is more and more used as a complementary therapy for chronic diseases. In supportive oncology, yoga can be recommended for various symptoms. The evidence is particularly convincing for the relief of fatigue associated with cancer or cancer therapy. There also are promising studies on the effectiveness of yoga in patients with breast cancer on difficulties in falling and staying asleep or therapy-associated menopausal symptoms. Since adverse events are not significantly more frequent in patients practicing yoga than in those practicing other forms of physical activity or in untreated control groups, a positive benefit-risk ratio for patients with cancer can be assumed.
