No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this study is to improve the monitoring of fluid retention in cancer patients. The main question it aims to answer is: Can segmental bioelectrical impedance analysis be used to monitor local fluid retention (edema) in cancer patients? We will include:

* Breast cancer patients with fluid and or lymph retention in one or both arms after radiotherapy (outpatients)
* Cancer patients with fluid retention in one or both legs after chemotherapy (hospitalized)

Participants will:

* Have measurements taken using bioelectrical impedance
* Provide blood samples and 24-hour urine collection
* Weight monitorering
* Complete diet and fluid registration (inclusive enteral and parenteral)
* Have clinical palpatory and measurement assessment of oedema.
