| Résumé : | Background This study sought to investigate the effects of foam pad balance exercises on balance, physical performance, peripheral neuropathy symptoms, and quality of life in cancer patients undergoing taxane-based chemotherapy. Methods Thirty cancer patients receiving chemotherapy were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 15/group): control group (CG) and balance exercise group (BG). The BG were asked to perform foam pad balance exercises 60 min/day, twice/week for 6 weeks, along with conventional therapy. The CG only received conventional therapy. The Fullerton Advanced Balance (FAB) Score, Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), Michigan Diabetic Neuropathy Score (MDNS), and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Taxane (FACT-Taxane) were used to assess balance, physical performance, peripheral neuropathy symptoms, and quality of life, respectively, at baseline and after 4 and 6 weeks of treatment. Results At 4 and/or 6 weeks, the CG showed a decline in FAB and SPPB Scores, while the BG maintained their baseline levels. There were significant differences in the FAB Scores between the groups at the 4th and 6th week (p = 0.04 and p |
