This prospective, randomised, controlled study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of salt and unsalted cold water foot baths in preventing chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) in patients receiving paclitaxel. The study's sub-objectives were to minimise the development of CIPN, reduce its severity and incidence of symptoms, and minimise its impact on daily life and activities. Hypothesis(es): H1: Salt cold water foot bath affects the development of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. H2: There is an effect of unsalted cold water foot bath on the development of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.

H4: Salt and unsalted cold water foot baths are more effective than standard clinical care in the development of chemotherapy-indu
