Summary

This study looks at whether painting mandalas during chemotherapy can help reduce anxiety, nausea, and improve comfort. It involves 120 adults receiving chemotherapy for the first time.

The goal is to see if this simple, drug-free activity can distract patients and ease common side effects.
