Breast Cancer, Memory Disorders
Conditions
Brief summary
The results of this study will contribute to a better understanding of prospective memory deficit processes in breast cancer in relation to sleep disorders frequently reported in this pathology. In the long term, a better understanding will make it possible to envisage appropriate treatments to compensate for these memory difficulties and to improve the autonomy of the patients.
Interventions
