Clinical Trial Summary

Inpatients or outpatients diagnosed with head and neck cancer who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were referred to the co-investigator(Dr. Chih-Jen Huang and Dr. Hui-Ching Wang), who then personally explained to each participant, the purpose and conduct of the study, so that they all understood their rights and interests before giving a written consent.


Clinical Trial Description

The study design was a randomized controlled trial and a longitudinal study with structured questionnaires (17-question basic information questionnaire、 The World Health Organization scale, WHO、NCI-CTCAE V5.0、Brief Pain Inventory-Taiwan、oral frailty checklist、European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-head & neck). The participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group (gargling with hydrogen water) and the control group (gargling with boiled water) by block randomization through a questionnaire administered by the investigator. At the end of cancer treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or Chemoradiotherapy), a hydrogen water gargle (dissolved for 12 hours or longer) or boiled water gargle was administered by the investigator or a researcher every Monday through Friday. The changes in six scales described above were tracked in the experimental and control groups on days 1 (T1), 3 (T2), 7 (T3), and 14 (T4) after the end of treatment. The data from these scales were entered into a computer and analyzed using statistical software, and the overall data are presented to demonstrate the efficacy of hydrogen water. ;
