Summary

Breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy often experience psychological distress, anxiety, and discomfort during treatment. Non-drug supportive methods may help improve patients' well-being during chemotherapy.

This study aims to evaluate whether mandala coloring during outpatient chemotherapy can reduce psychological distress and anxiety and improve comfort in breast cancer patients. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a mandala coloring group or a routine care group. Patients in the intervention group will color mandala patterns for 30 minutes during their chemotherapy session, while the control group will receive routine care only.

Psychological distress, anxiety, and comfort levels will be measured before and after the chemotherapy session in both groups. The results of this study may provide evidence for a simple and low-cost supportive intervention to improve the psychological well-being of breast cancer patients during chemotherapy.
