Overview
Acute radiation skin toxicity is one of the most common side effects encountered in those undergoing radiation therapy, affecting nearly all patients; however, no standard criterion currently exists for the prevention of acute radiation induced skin toxicity.
This study aims to:
1. Determine if dilute bleach compresses can attenuate the incidence and severity of radiation dermatitis.
2. Evaluate and describe patient-reported outcomes.
Status
This project was funded through a 2020 PeDRA Research Fellowship Grant.
