Cryotherapy (frozen glove)
"In this study, the cryotherapy interventions were based on previous studies, with the dominant hand wearing the frozen glove set as the experimental group, and the non-dominant hand that was not wearing a frozen glove as the control group.~The cold temperature of the refrigerator was measured in advance to be -20.2°C to -22.8°C. The freezing of the gloves lasted for at least three hours, and the gloves were tested with an infrared temperature-measuring instrument before use. Its temperature range was -24.3°C to -24.7°C. The patient began to wear gloves 15 minutes before the administration of paclitaxel for one hour, and replaced them with new frozen gloves at the 45th minute. The patient continued to wear the gloves until 15 minutes after the end of the chemotherapy drug administration, for a total of 90 minutes."
