Self-Care for Lymphedema in Patients With Breast Cancer
Breast Cancer Treatment Related Lymphedema Self Care Practices
RATIONALE: Identifying why patients don't do self care for lymphedema may help doctors plan better at-home self-care treatment.
PURPOSE: This research study is looking at self-care practices for lymphedema in patients with breast cancer.

詳細な説明
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- To systematically identify and describe the barriers to completing recommended at home self-care of lymphedema in patients with breast cancer.
- To identify patient recalled instructions as to at home self-care practices for lymphedema as told to them by healthcare professionals and others.
- To identify the current at home self-care practices of breast cancer survivors with treatment treated lymphedema.
Secondary
- To examine the relationship between at home self-care activities and symptoms in breast cancer survivors with lymphedema.
- To examine the relationship between at home self-care activities and quality of life in breast cancer survivors with lymphedema.
- To identify patient-perceived benefits to at home self-care.
OUTLINE: Patients complete questionnaires about their breast cancer diagnosis and treatment history, lymphedema history and problems, and years of education and income. Patients also complete surveys about home self-care practices for lymphedema and any benefits, burdens, or barriers of at home care.
