Vollständiger Abstract

Worum geht es in dieser Arbeit?

Significant progress in the early detection and treatment of breast cancer has greatly improved survival rates, enabling numerous patients to enjoy longer and healthier lives. Nevertheless, even with these medical advancements, survivors frequently face physical issues like fatigue, pain and cognitive difficulties that can affect their everyday activities. Moreover, they often deal with psychosocial problems such as anxiety, depression, concerns about body image and feelings of social isolation, which may continue well after treatment ends. Thus, data shows the importance of evaluating Quality of Life (QoL) to fully grasp the experiences of survivors beyond traditional clinical assessments in India.
