OBJECTIVES: This scoping review aims to map out evidence on interventions for reducing lower limb lymphedema incidence and symptoms after gynecological cancer surgery.
METHODS: This scoping review followed the methods and protocol outlined by the Joanna Briggs Institute Methods Manual. Five databases, including Pubmed, Scopus, Web of Science, CINAHL, and PsycINFO were searched in January 2024.
RESULTS: The review included 15 interventions primarily designed to prevent and manage cancer-related lower extremity lymphedema. Most studies have examined the effect of interventions on the development of lymphedema-related symptoms and quality of life. Most studies tested complex decongestive therapy (CDT) (n = 6, 39.9%), including various techniques, such as manual lymphatic drainage, compression, exercise, and skincare. Of the interventions, 86.6% improved at least one outcome measurement, such as quality of life, lymphedema incidence, symptoms, and lower limb volume.
CONCLUSIONS: Limited evidence shows that the use of interventions appears to have the potential to reduce the risk and symptoms of lymphedema and improve the quality of life in women undergoing gynecological cancer treatment.
IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Developing and testing comprehensive lymphedema education and management strategies in nursing practice is essential to optimize patient outcomes and enhance the quality of life for women undergoing gynecological cancer treatment.
