Clinical Trial: Effect of Immersive Virtual Reality on Postural Control and Risk of Fall in Patients With Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy

U.S., Oct. 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07854574) titled 'Effect of Immersive Virtual Reality on Postural Control and Risk of Fall in Patients With Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy' on Sept. 27.

Brief Summary: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a major cause of functional disability in cancer survivors. Patients with CIPN typically present with numbness, tingling, burning pain, and loss of proprioception, particularly in distal extremities. The sensory and motor deficits associated with CIPN impair balance and increase the likelihood of falls, which may lead to injury, decreased independence, and reduced quality of life. Loss of proprioception and vibration sense...
