Gaining a greater understanding of how each exercise mode affects lymphedema, as well as other health-related outcomes will improve exercise prescription guidelines relevant to this specific lymphedema. Therefore, the purpose of this work was to compare the effects of Xbox kinect rehabilitation and resistance exercises on limb volume, symptoms severity, physical function, and quality of life in women with Breast cancer-related lymphedema.
Breast cancer-related lymphedema is a common and debilitating side effect of cancer treatment. This study compared the effect of Xbox kinect rehabilitation and resistance exercises on breast cancer-related lymphedema volume and severity, as well as participant's physical function and quality of life. Women diagnosed with unilateral breast cancer related lymphedema were randomly divided into two groups: the kinect based rehabilitation group KBRG and resistance exercise group REG. woman in The KBRG received virtual reality therapy using Xbox Kinect-based games, the REG received resistance training in addition both groups received complex decongestive physiotherapy. The intervention was five sessions per week for 8 weeks. The outcome measures included limb volume, symptoms severity, physical function (muscle strength and range of motion) and quality of life. All these outcomes were assessed at pretreatment (baseline) and after the end of treatment at week eight (W8).

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Virtual Reality Group | Experimental | The Kinect based rehabilitation group received virtual reality therapy using Xbox Kinect-based games, in addition to complex decongestive physiotherapy. The intervention was led once per day, five days a week, over 8 weeks. All participants wearing multilayer bandage or compression stocking during training to avoid exacerbation of the lymphedema in the affected limb. |
