REVIEW
Proactive Rehabilitation for Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy.
Seminars in Oncology Nursing 2020 January 19
OBJECTIVE: To review assessment and management approaches for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy-related physical function deficits.
DATA SOURCES: Peer-reviewed articles from PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, CINAHL PsycINFO, SPORTDiscus, Scopus, and key studies' reference lists.
CONCLUSION: Brief clinical tests (eg, gait, Timed Up and Go) can screen for neuropathy-related physical function deficits. Exercise and physical therapy may be promising treatments, but the efficacy and optimal dose of such treatments for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy are unclear.
IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Screening and assessment of neuropathy-associated physical function deficits should occur throughout neurotoxic chemotherapy treatment. If such deficits are identified, referral for rehabilitation (ie, physical or occupational therapy) and/or exercise interventions is warranted.
