Guía práctica para facilitar las actividades cotidianas después del cáncer de mama

The Practice guideline for daily activities management after breast cancer is the result of a study carried out by Occupational Therapists in a sample of more than 170 Spanish and Portuguese women on the limitations that may appear after having undergone cancer treatment for breast cancer. From this study, a series of daily activities were identified by the affected women as the most difficult to do in their daily lives. 

The guide starts with a brief explanation of the main symptoms and/or sequelae associated with the breast cancer process, and from there, the selected activities are addressed. For each activity, a series of tips and suggestions are given, based on the occupational therapist's own knowledge, which can help to simplify the activity and adapt it according to the symptomatology presented. For each suggestion, the main symptoms or sequelae for which the recommendation is intended are indicated. Different assistive devices that can help to carry out these tasks are also shown. 

The guide is designed so that each person can read those activities that are difficult for them to carry out and can include the changes that best suit their particular situation in their day-to-day life.
