Physiotherapy Program Impact on Breast Cancer-Related Lymphedema

Breast Cancer Related Lymphedema (BCRL) is a sequela resulting from the application of certain treatments, such as axillary lymph node dissection and regional lymph node radiation. The main objective of the present clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of moderate-high intensity strength training in combination with an aerobic exercise protocol and the application of cohesive compression bandaging in subjects with or at risk for BCRL and to analyze the acute responses of the molecular, functional and clinical profile of patients with BCRL or at risk after two sessions of intervention. To compare proteomic analysis of patients or at risk with healthy controls and to assess the adaptations produced after 12 weeks of exercise intervention and over a 12-week post-intervention period in patients with BCRL or at risk.
