First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 20 times

Summary

This study looks at whether painting mandalas during chemotherapy can help reduce anxiety, nausea, and improve comfort. Researchers will ask 120 first-time chemotherapy patients to color mandalas for at least 30 minutes during their treatment. Their anxiety, nausea, and comfort levels will be compared to a control group who does not color. The goal is to find a simple, drug-free way to ease the stress and discomfort of chemotherapy.
