Cancer Survivors' hidden fall risk: walking and texting under the microscope

NCT ID NCT06313359

Summary

This study aims to understand why people with nerve damage (peripheral neuropathy) from cancer treatment have a higher risk of falling and a lower quality of life. Researchers will compare 40 people with this nerve damage to a similar group without it, testing their balance, walking, thinking skills, and ability to do two things at once (like walking while texting). The goal is to identify which specific problems contribute most to fall risk to guide future safety strategies.
