| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN) is manifested with the neuromyotonia-like acute transient syndrome, these symptoms have influence on the activities daily living or the quality of life in patients received outpatient chemotherapy. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of hyperthermic therapy for OIPN in outpatient chemotherapy. Thirty four patients (22 men, 12 women, age; 63.5±11.7 years) were assessed peripheral neuropathy of hands at baseline and carried out hyperthermic therapy. Hyperthermic therapy included the wearing of thermal glove and avoidance of cold exposure in daily living. As a result from this study, although hand grip were likely to protect the functional decline, no statistically significant effect was observed in assessment items.
