Description

Rehabilitation Oncology is an indexed resource for the dissemination of peer-reviewed research-based evidence related to oncologic physical therapy and cancer rehabilitation. The journal provides a forum for scientific and professional exchange among researchers and practitioners throughout the world. The journal serves as the official journal for the Academy of Oncologic Physical Therapy. High standards of quality are maintained through a rigorous, double-blinded peer-review process and adherence to ethical standards of the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors. With the editorial board comprised of a panel of preeminent researchers and clinical scholars, Rehabilitation Oncology publishes articles of global relevance that support evidenced-based practice of oncologic physical therapy and cancer rehabilitation along with research reports that contribute to the foundational sciences of oncologic physical therapy, ranging from biomechanics to exercise science. Rehabilitation Oncology publishes systematic reviews directed to specific clinical questions, original research articles with cutting edge interventions underpinned by sound rationale, case studies that describe unusual conditions, and clinical guidelines, clinical perspectives and commentary that further the science and practice of oncologic physical therapy. Rehabilitation Oncology promotes the integration of evidence into theory, education, research, and practice of oncologic physical therapy and cancer rehabilitation, spanning the continuum from pathophysiology to societal participation.

On this episode, Dr. Hadas Ofek discusses a new, mechanism-based therapeutic approach to ease symptoms of CIPN. Using both patient-reported measures and measures of physical function, her team assessed the feasibility and effectiveness of a short sensory retraining physiotherapy treatment course for individuals experiencing CIPN.
On this special Ask the Authors episode, Drs. David Doubblestein and Linda Koehler join us to discuss the non-manual lymphatic drainage narrative, why it’s never been about the volume, and the evidence supporting MLD as a critical component of complete decongestive therapy for lymphedema. Don’t throw MLD out with the volume!
On this episode, physical therapist Cheryl Brunelle joins us to discuss her study, partially supported by the Foundation for Physical Therapy Research, in which she and her team analyzed agreement between commonly used breast cancer-related lymphedema diagnostic thresholds.
On this episode, Emma Gomes, a PhD student in the Physical Activity for Treatment and Prevention Lab at Colorado State University, joins us to discuss her team’s investigation of the immediate effects of videoconference exercise sessions on fatigue and energy among survivors of cancer.
On this special Ask the Authors episode, Dr. Kathy Lyons and Dr. Jarrad Van Stan join us to discuss the Rehabilitation Treatment Specification System and their article from the October issue of Rehab Onc. We’ll discuss how intentional and transparent reporting of cancer rehabilitation interventions can help advance our field with implications for both research and clinical practice.
On this episode, Dr. Lynn Tanner joins us to discuss her team’s systematic review investigating factors related to rehabilitation adherence in pediatric cancer. Dr. Tanner discusses why adherence is a critical measure for rehabilitation research and clinical practice for both pediatric and adult populations, including challenges and opportunities to enhance care for the pediatric oncology population.
On this episode, Dr. Michael Robinson joins us to discuss his recent perspective piece detailing a striking healthcare disparity that exists regarding melanoma detection among people of color. Although non-Hispanic White individuals are diagnosed with melanoma at 30x the rate of Black individuals, Black individuals die from melanoma at nearly 9x the rate compared to non-Hispanic White individuals. Dr. Robinson helps shine a light on factors that contribute to this disparity and the role that we, as PTs, can play addressing it.
On this episode, Dr. Marisa Perdomo joins us to discuss the framework her team developed for breast cancer-related lymphedema education across the survivorship continuum. Dr. Perdomo discusses key components of BCRL education including what needs to be taught, who should be teaching it, and considerations for when in the continuum may be the best time.
On this episode, Dr. Victor Leite of Sao Paolo, Brazil, joins us to discuss the results of his team’s survey assessing rehabilitation practices during hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at major cancer centers in the United States. Dr. Leite discusses results including how patients are referred to rehabilitation services, how outcomes are objectively measured, and how safety is maintained during rehabilitation.
This special episode accompanies the January 2024 issue of Rehabilitation Oncology; a special issue focusing on exercise in oncology rehabilitation. On this episode, special issue guest editor, Dr. Steve Morris, joins us to discuss the current state of exercise oncology and the far-reaching implications of the articles within this impactful issue.
This episode accompanies the January 2024 issue of Rehabilitation Oncology; a special issue focusing on physical activity in the context of oncology rehabilitation. On this episode, Alexander Brooks, a PhD Candidate from the Exercise Oncology Laboratory in the Arnold School of Public Health at the University of South Carolina discusses his study which examined changes in objective and patient-reported measures of physical function following an 8-week exercise oncology program.
On this special Ask the Authors episode of the Rehabilitation Oncology Podcast, Drs. Gabriele Moriello and Kristina Kuil discuss their systematic review of randomized controlled trials assessing mind-body therapy interventions for informal caregivers of individuals with cancer.
On this episode of the Rehabilitation Oncology Podcast, Dr. Jenna Smitch-Turchyn discusses social support and its role in physical activity for individuals living beyond a cancer diagnosis. We take a deeper dive into Dr. Smith-Turchyn's scoping review which examined the literature regarding the use, parameters, matching characteristics, and effectiveness of partner-based peer support physical activity interventions for survivors of cancer.
On this special Ask the Authors episode of the Rehabilitation Oncology Podcast, Drs. David Doubblestein and Bryan Spinelli discuss the use of outcome measures among certified lymphedema therapists and the importance of selecting outcome measures to comprehensively assess all domains of an individual’s function.
On this episode of the Rehabilitation Oncology Podcast, Drs. Clark Dickerson and Jacquelyn Maciukiewicz discuss how they examined specific factors that differentiate groups of breast cancer survivors and how those factors may influence shoulder function after treatment for breast cancer.
In this special episode of the Rehabilitation Oncology Podcast, we present our first ever ‘Ask the Authors’ panel discussion. Authors Mallory Mark, Janae Finley, and Jill Binkley discuss the motivation behind their timely article and lead a discussion on the current landscape of disparities in cancer survivorship care as well as the individual responsibilities of physical therapists to reduce disparities in cancer survivorship and the steps we can all take in our communities toward this goal.
In this episode of the Rehabilitation Oncology Podcast, Drs. Jill Mayer and Kayleigh Plumeau discuss the impact of weekly phone calls, made by a physical therapist, on outcomes (e.g., physical function, quality of life, fatigue) and home exercise program adherence for survivors of cancer early in their recovery.
Host Dr. Steve Morris speaks with study lead investigator Helen Mackie about her important findings related to compensatory lymphatic drainage in lower extremity lymphedema, particularly among those with a history of cancer. The findings of this study suggest support for manual lymph drainage to move lymph to the contralateral inguinal drainage region.
Joy Cohn, PT, provides insights into the newest APTA Oncology clinical practice guideline for screening and assessing cancer-related fatigue. Valuable information on which tools are best to use and how to implement the clinical practice guideline are discussed with podcast host, Dr. Stephen Morris.
Dr. Lisa Wood Magee and Dr. Stephen Wechsler present exciting findings about how cancer-related fatigue can result in physical impairments among those treated for cancer, and the need to address this through exercise aimed at large muscle groups of the lower extremity.
