Summary

This study tested whether a hybrid (in-person and online) physiotherapy program is feasible for children aged 4-17 with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Ten children and their parents tried the program, which included tailored exercises and games. The goal was to see if families could and would participate, not to measure health benefits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Physical therapy program (hybrid in-person and virtual)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that a hybrid physiotherapy program is a practical way to help children with leukemia stay active during and after treatment.
What could go wrong
This is a very small feasibility study with only 10 participants, so results may not apply to all children. It focuses on whether the program is possible and acceptable, not on health outcomes.
