Exploring the role of pain on physical activity among youth with acute lymphoblastic leukemia using the biopsychosocial model
The relationship between pain and PA during ALL treatment is influenced by an intricate system of biological (e.g., treatment effects), psychological (e.g., parental distress), and social (e.g., communication among families and medical teams) factors. Future directions include identifying evidence-based PA recommendations and exploring family-team communication dynamics. This study also highlights a need to prioritize ALL pain management and involve caregivers in behavioral treatment protocols to improve PA.
