Abstract
Cancer is a term that elicits a shock in the nerve endings of every individual, touches every country in the world .A study to evaluate the effectiveness of warm water foot bath on fatigue among clients with cancer was undertaken at CSI-International Cancer Center, Neyyoor, using a quasi experimental pre test, post test control group design. 60 clients with cancer who were admitted at CSI-International Cancer Center and those who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were selected for the study using a Non-probability purposive sampling technique. The tool used was Modified Piper Fatigue Scale. The interventional group received warm water foot bath for 15 minutes, 3 times a day for 3 consecutive days along with usual treatment and the control group received only usual treatment. Post test fatigue scores were assessed on the third day 2 hours after the last intervention.The findings revealed that warm water foot bath reduced the level of fatigue among clients with cancer in the interventional group than the control group. Along with medical treatment, complimentary therapy such as warm water foot bath therapy could be added into the treatment regimen in the Indian scenario.
