| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of cognitive training on cognitive function and quality of life in women who had received chemotherapy for breast cancer in Japan and the United States. The study design was a randomized controlled trial using a mixed methods design. The intervention group received cognitive training at home for 4 weeks. A portable cognitive training device suitable for cancer patients with mild cognitive impairment was developed and used for the intervention. In the results, 41 patients in Japan and 30 patients in the U.S. were included in the analysis, suggesting the effectiveness of the intervention on cognitive function, cognitive impairment, and psychological quality of life. It is necessary to assess cognitive impairment in considering with various background factors affecting cognitive function and to provide support for improvement.
