Maneno muhimu

Maelezo
Oral mucositis is a common side effect from paclitaxel treatment. It can be very painful and compromise nutrition and oral hygiene, and it may increase the risk of infection. Although oral mucositis is a common side effect to chemotherapy, no available treatment is yet available that can effectively prevent or treat oral mucositis.
Based on the knowledge that white tea has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anti-microbial effect, the current study aims to assess the effect of mouth wash with white tea on paclitaxel induced oral mucositis in women with breast cancer.
This study is a phase II randomized controlled trial in which eligible patients will be allocated to a control group (CG) and a study group (SG). The CG will use salt water with soda for mouthwash eight to ten times a day and the SG will use white tea for mouthwash five to six times a day.
