简要总结
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of occupational therapy, in shape of activities of daily living, for cancer patients.
详细描述
Background
Cancer patients often experience serious dysfunctions leading to problems with activities of daily living (ADL) and reduced quality of life. Occupational therapy is believed to be effective in handling many of the problems with ADL experienced by patients with cancer, but the evidence is sparse.
Aim
The purpose of this study is to analyse the effects of an occupational therapy intervention targeting cancer patients.
Outcome measures are the patients self-reported quality of life and the patients ability to perform ADL.
