详细描述
The aim of this randomized controlled experimental study was to determine the effect of massage applied to colorectal cancer patients receiving chemotherapy on peripheral neuropathy and quality of life.Investigation was carried out between February 2012- May 2013 with 52 patients meeting study criteria and receiving chemotherapy in Akdeniz University outpatient chemotherapy unit (28 study group, 24 control).
Massage therapy group:The experimental group patients were given a series of effleurage, petrissage and surface fraction types of classical massage on local parts of they're body-below, elbow-frontal arm-hand (20 minutes) and below knee-leg (lower part)-foot (20 minutes) two days of treatment of 16 times total.The patients in the massage group received 16 sessions of classical massage performed by the research nurse, who had classical massage training and certification.Baseline, patient characteristics , peripheral neuropathy symptoms, neuropathic pain, cancer and chemotherapy-related symptoms, and quality of life were completed. Peripheral neuropathy symptoms, cancer, and chemotherapy-related symptoms were assessed at each cycle (2th, 4th, 6th, 8th,10th,12th,14th, 16th. week- (two-week intervals)). Neuropathic pain and quality of life were measured at 4, 10, and 16 weeks. At week 16 (2 weeks after the intervention), the grade of peripheral sensory neuropathy was determined.
Control Group: The patients received routine care. Baseline, patient characteristics , peripheral neuropathy symptoms, neuropathic pain, cancer and chemotherapy-related symptoms, and quality of life were completed. Peripheral neuropathy symptoms, cancer, and chemotherapy-related symptoms were assessed at each cycle (2th, 4th, 6th, 8th,10th,12th,14th, 16th. week (two-week intervals)). Neuropathic pain and quality of life were measured at 4, 10, and 16 weeks. At week 16 (2 weeks after the intervention), the grade of peripheral sensory neuropathy was determined.

结局指标
主要结局
Peripheral Neuropathy Evaluation Form
时间窗: 16 week
It was developed by the researcher by reviewing the literature in order to determine the symptoms of peripheral neuropathy in the upper and lower extremities of the patients (0=no symptoms, 4=very severe)
Self-Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs Pain Scale (S-LANSS)
时间窗: 16 weeks
This scale measures neuropathic pain.The first five items of the scale show pain symptoms, while the last two items show allodynia and pinprick test self-report. A score of twelve points or more is considered as neuropathic pain (neuropathic pain yes:12 and higher).
MD Anderson Symptom Inventory
时间窗: 16 weeks
The scale includes symptoms (13 items), and measures how much the symptoms have interfered with six daily activities (general activity, mood, work, relations with others, walking, and enjoyment of life.) A high score indicates an increase in the severity of the symptom and negative impact on life. The rates the severity of symptoms with a score of 0-10, 0 "none" and 10 "as bad as you can imagine" over the past 24 hours.Interference is rated on a 0-10 numerical rating scale, 0 being "did not interfere" and 10 being "interfered completely." A score range of 5-6 is considered "moderate" and a range of 7-10 is considered "severe".
American National Cancer Institute Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program Common Toxicity Criteria, Version 2.0
时间窗: 16 weeks
It was used to grade Peripheral Neuropathy-sensory (minimum score: 0; maximum score: 4). Grade 0: Normal, no symptoms, Grade 4: permanent loss of sensation and impaired function. High grades indicate the height of the symptom severity.
European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer-Quality of Life Scale
时间窗: 16 weeks
It measures the quality of life of individuals diagnosed with cancer. This scale consists of three parts: general health, functional health and symptoms, and a total of 30 questions ((minimum score: 0 maximum score: 100).A high score indicates a high quality of life. Low scores on functional health (physical, role, emotional, cognitive, and social functions) and general health scales indicate poor quality of life. Low scores on the symptom subscale indicate higher quality of life.
