About

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of kinetic control exercises on shoulder dysfunction in post-mastectomy.

Full description

This study holds significant importance for clinical practice, patient care, and research.

• Clinical Practice: It provides a potential framework for physical therapists to design targeted and effective interventions for shoulder dysfunction in post-mastectomy patients.
• Patient Care: Improved rehabilitation outcomes can enhance patients' physical functionality, independence, and overall quality of life, addressing a critical gap in post-operative recovery.
