Upper Limb Function After Breast Cancer Surgery: the Role of Post-operative Physical Therapy Intervention
Upper Limb Function After Breast Cancer Surgery: the Role of Post-operative Physical Therapy Intervention- Randomized Control Trial
Surgical treatments can cause late effects influencing activity of daily living, physical activity, and overall health. Late effects include persistent pain reported by 30 - 50% of women that underwent breast operations, restrictions of arm and shoulder movement were reported in 35% of patients, lymphedema in 15 - 25% of women who undergo axillary lymph node dissection and in about 6% of women who undergo sentinel lymph node biopsy. Lymphedema results in physical impairments including compromised function, diminished strength, fatigue, and pain in the affected arm . The axillary web syndrome is a self-limiting and frequently overlooked cause of significant morbidity in the early postoperative period after breast cancer, which is characterized by axillary pain that runs down the medial arm, limited shoulder range of motion (ROM) .
Physiotherapy and exercise in the postoperative period can result in a significant improvement in shoulder ROM in women treated for breast cancer, Additionally, exercises are an effective intervention to improve quality of life, cardiorespiratory fitness, physical functioning and fatigue in breast cancer patients. However, in the postoperative period consideration should be given to the early implementation of exercises because of the potential for seroma and increases in wound drainage volume and duration.
There is limited evidence on the influence of postoperative physiotherapy intervention, and instruction program on upper limb range of motion and return to physical activity divided by the type of surgery and regarding complications.

Description détaillée
Aim The aim of this study is to evaluate the influence of early postoperative physical therapy program on upper-limb function and returning to physical activity in the first 6 months following surgery.
Hypotheses
- Early physical activity performed post-operative will improve ROM and therefore, will help women after breast surgeries to return faster to their routine physical activity and by that promote physical health.
- Early postoperative physical therapy is safe when the program for is tailored to the type of surgery.
Methods
Study design Parallel group prospective randomized controlled clinical trial. Two surgical department's including general surgery department and genecology department in Assuta hospital, Tel Aviv, Israel
Sample All women undergoing breast cancer surgeries in Assuta hospital between 02.01.2018 and till 07.01.2019 will be randomized into two groups: Group A (intervention group) will be instructed first day post-operative to exercise program; Group B (control group) without intervention.
