Can a simple home device stop disfiguring swelling before it starts?
NCT ID NCT05937269
Summary
This study is testing if starting a simple home therapy early can prevent painful facial and neck swelling (lymphedema) in people who have finished treatment for head and neck cancer. Researchers will use special imaging to spot early signs of swelling and then have one group use a daily compression device at home for a year, while another group receives standard care. They want to see if acting before symptoms appear can stop the swelling from developing or getting worse.
