Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial study: is to determine the effect of Virtual reality on pain and function for shoulder dysfunction post neck dissection surgeries. The main question is: Can Virtual reality technique affect the dysfunction of shoulder joint post neck dissection surgeries? Participants will receive the treatment for 2 times per week for 2 months. Assessment will be done before and after treatment.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer for Canadian women. Of the women who will have a mastectomy each year in Canada, one in five will elect to have breast reconstruction. However, the significant benefits for body-image, self-esteem, sexuality, and quality of life are tempered by post-treatment shoulder dysfunction for many. As a means to decrease shoulder morbidities in breast cancer survivors (BCS), this study will introduce a mobile application (app)-based shoulder rehabilitation program as an option to improve functional outcomes of the shoulder, for those who have had breast reconstruction.
Patients who underwent modified radical mastectomy were enrolled in the study. 200 subjects were randomly divided into 4 groups: 7 days postoperative shoulder isotonic training + 4 weeks postoperative progressive resistance training group, postoperative 7 Isometric training for the shoulder joint + progressive resistance training for 3 weeks after surgery group, 3 days postoperative isotope training + 4 weeks postoperative progressive resistance training group, 3 days postoperative shoulder isotonic training + postoperative 3 Weekly progressive resistance training group. The effects of interventional rehabilitation at different time points on the recovery of shoulder function after breast cancer operation were observed. The results of the study will provide evidence-based evidence for the time point of intervention in early functional exercise after modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer.
