Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Tele rehabilitation has gained popularity during Covid 19 pandemic. All the studies carried out at that time was found effective in many countries. Still a literature gap is present in tele rehabilitation in breast cancer patients in Pakistan. Prevalence of breast cancer is high in Pakistan. Now it is the best time to implement tele rehabilitation for breast cancer patients as it will reduce treatment costs and travel expenses. Therefore, the goal of this RCT is to consider tele rehabilitation as part of our treatment plan because if it is found effective for patients than it will be helpful in the field of health and technology.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Telerehablitation

The treatment plan of both groups will be the same according to the exercise plan given by American Cancer Society guidelines for breast cancer patients.

Frequency :10 repetitions Intensity: Moderate Time: Once a day

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

American Cancer Society

Intervention Type OTHER

After taking base line readings the patients will be divided into two groups' experimental group and control group by randomization. The experimental group will receive tele rehabilitation and the control group will receive outpatient rehabilitation. Readings will be taken at the end of every week. The treatment plan of both groups will be the same according to the exercise plan given by American Cancer Society guidelines for breast cancer patients. The exercise plan will start on third day of surgery. A pictorial reference will be given to every patient to perform exercise.

The exercise session will be thrice a week, for 60 min, and for four consecutive weeks, for 12 sessions. Exercise plan consists of three phases:

warm up, balance exercise ,cool down
