Changes in chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, disturbance in activities of daily living, and depression following chemotherapy in patients with colorectal cancer: A prospective study.

CONCLUSION: These results suggest that chemotherapy is highly associated with OIPN, disturbance in ADL by OIPN, and depression in colorectal cancer patients. Nursing intervention is needed to relieve depression as well as OIPN in patients undergoing chemotherapy. PMID: 31751847 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
