ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background

With the change in people’s lifestyles, the incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) is increasing. It is essential to study the efficacy of various treatment methods for CRC patients to prevent and treat CRC.

Research motivation

Exercise is becoming more and more critical in the treatment of various diseases. Baduanjin is a joint fitness exercise. It is of great significance to explore the therapeutic effect of Baduanjin combined with biofeedback therapy on CRC patients in the future.

Research objectives

This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of biofeedback therapy combined with Baduanjin in improving the quality of life and gastrointestinal hormone levels of patients with CRC.

Research methods

In this study, clinical randomized controlled trials were used to select experimental samples and SPSS 25 was used for data analysis. These research methods can make the experimental results more objective.

Research results

After a period of biofeedback therapy combined with Baduanjin intervention, the quality of life, gastrointestinal hormone levels and clinical efficacy of patients were significantly improved and better than the control group.

Research conclusions

On the basis of routine nursing care, patients with CRC combined with biofeedback therapy and Baduanjin exercise can improve the quality of life of patients with CRC and the efficacy of gastrointestinal hormone levels.

Research perspectives

In future studies, we should pay more attention to the effects of different forms of exercise on CRC. At the same time, more studies should be conducted on the therapeutic effects of the combination of several methods on CRC patients.
