Lymphedema arm

This study tested small wearable sensors to see if they can accurately measure lymphedema, a condition where fluid builds up and causes swelling, often after cancer treatment. Thirty adults with arm lymphedema wore the sensors during one visit, and researchers compared the readin…

This trial tests whether a self-management program can reduce lymphedema symptoms and improve quality of life in women with breast cancer who have developed arm swelling after mastectomy. Participants will learn exercises and receive education on lymphedema care, such as skin pro…

This study tested a new vibrating device called LymphaVibe for treating arm lymphedema, a painful swelling from fluid buildup. Fifteen adults with lymphedema used the device for 40 minutes during a clinic visit. Researchers measured arm size, pain, and side effects before and aft…

This study looked at whether chemotherapy before breast cancer surgery causes extra fluid buildup in the arm, an early sign of lymphedema. Researchers measured 111 women's arm fluid before and after chemo using a special device. The goal was to understand how often this happens a…

This completed study looked at 133 breast cancer patients to develop a way to predict who will get arm swelling (lymphedema) after lymph node removal surgery. Researchers examined patient characteristics, proteins, and genes to build a risk model. The goal is to help doctors iden…
