Sponsor's own description

This study aimed to examine the effect of bundling seated exercises and psychoeducational rehabilitation using the teach-back approach on fatigue and coping of women postmastectomy.

Hypotheses for research:

1. Women with BC who receive seated exercises and psychoeducational rehabilitation using the teach-back approach after mastectomy exhibit less fatigue than those who do not.
2. Women with BC who receive seated exercises and psychoeducational rehabilitation using the teach-back approach after mastectomy exhibit improved coping behaviors than those who do not.

A quasi-experimental research was conducted in the main University Hospital, Alexandria, Egypt. A total of 60 women were randomly allocated to one of two groups.; women in the study group practiced seated exercises and psychological rehabilitation interventions, including mindfulness breathing, problem-solving training, cognitive reframing technique, and thought stopping.
