Feasibility study of Cooral system for oral mucositis in patients receiving chemotherapy
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Interventions: Before the start of treatment the patient receives clear oral and written instructions on the use of Cooral by the nurse responsible for the patient. The patient him/herself is able to administer the intraoral component until it feels comfortable. Then the responsible staff check to ensure that it has good contact with the oral mucous membrane. Cooling begins 30 minutes before the start of chemotherapy. Cooling continues until 30 minutes after the termination of the cytostatic infusion. During treatment the patient may if necessary take out the component and replace it again, for a maximum of 10 minutes. Food should thus be taken before or after chemotherapy.
Primary outcome(s): Feasibility for Cooral system during the first chemotherapy cycle.
