Abstract in brief

  • The study evaluated a web and mobile-based system called TOLF designed to help women with breast cancer manage chronic pain and lymphedema symptoms through lymphatic and limb mobility exercises.
  • Results showed that after 12 weeks, women in the TOLF group experienced significantly less chronic pain and were more likely to have complete pain reduction compared to the control group, indicating the effectiveness of the digital intervention.
  • The trial used a randomized design with 120 participants, analyzing data through various statistical methods, and found that TOLF improved outcomes related to pain, limb volume, and quality of life for breast cancer survivors dealing with lymphedema.
