TL;DR: The individualized home-based exercise program led to improvement in affected upper-limb volume and circumference and QOL of postmastectomy lymphedema patients.
Abstract: Lymphedema is a debilitating complication following mastectomy, affecting the arm functions and quality of life (QOL) of breast cancer patients Studies have shown the beneficial effects of upper-limb exercises on lymphedema in clinical set- tings However, there is a dearth of evidence regarding the effect of home-based exercises on lymphedema; therefore, we examined the effect of a home-based exercise program on lymphedema and QOL in postmastectomy patients Thirty-two female postmas- tectomy lymphedema patients participated in an individualized home-based exercise program for 8 weeks Arm circumference, arm volume, and QOL (36-Item Short Form Health Survey) were measured before and after the program Data were analyzed with the use of paired t-tests for circumferential and volumetric mea- sures and Wilcoxon signed ranks tests for QOL Significance level was set at p < 001 with Bonferroni correction (alpha/n = 005/5 = 001) Analysis showed a statistically significant improvement in the affected upper-limb circumference and vol- ume (~122 mL reduction, p < 0001) and in the QOL scores (p < 0001) at the end of the home-based exercise program The indi- vidualized home-based exercise program led to improvement in affected upper-limb volume and circumference and QOL of post- mastectomy lymphedema patients
