NCT ID NCT02992782
Summary
This study tested a new 12-week program for women with chronic arm swelling (lymphedema) after breast cancer surgery. Researchers wanted to see if combining strength training exercises with wearing a special compression sleeve could safely reduce swelling and improve arm function. The pilot trial enrolled 24 breast cancer survivors to check if participants could follow the program and if it helped.
