Summary

This study looked at whether warm foot baths can help reduce the severe tiredness (fatigue) that children often feel after chemotherapy. The trial included 60 children aged 7 to 12 with advanced lymphoma who were starting their first round of chemo. Parents reported their child's fatigue levels using a detailed questionnaire. The goal was to see if this simple, drug-free method could improve comfort and quality of life during cancer treatment.
