About this study

Official title: Increasing Patient Preparedness for the Procedural Experience and Improving Qualitative Outcomes Through Patient Education

Objective:

To compare changes in patient anxiety levels between groups of patients who either were or were not exposed to an informative multimedia patient education tool, in order to determine how the addition of such a multimedia tool will affect this parameter. Specifically, the study will focus on subjective anxiety as measured on pre procedure and post procedure patient surveys as detailed under study components.

Read the detailed description

If you agree to take part in this study, you will complete a questionnaire that asks how you feel before the procedure. It will take about 5 minutes to complete.

After you have completed the questionnaire, you will be randomly assigned (as in the flip of a coin) to Group 1 or Group 2. You will have an equal chance of being in either group.

If you are in Group 1, you will receive routine information before the lung biopsy and you will watch a video on a handheld or laptop machine with headphones. The video is designed to help you understand the biopsy procedure. This video should last about 5 minutes. You will then complete a questionnaire that asks how you feel after watching the video. It will take about 5 minutes to complete.

If you are in Group 2, you will receive routine information before the lung biopsy. You will then complete another questionnaire that asks how you feel before the procedure. It will take about 5 minutes to complete.

After your routine lung biopsy, both groups will complete a questionnaire that asks how you feel after the procedure. It will take about 5 minutes to complete.

For Group 1, the total time to complete the questionnaires and watch the video will be 20 minutes.

For Group 2, the total time to complete the questionnaires will be 15 minutes.

Length of Study:

Your participation in this study will be over once you complete the questionnaire after your lung biopsy.

This is an investigational study.

Up to 100 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at M. D. Anderson.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient Response to Subjective Anxiety Surveys (time frame: 1 day (pre and post lung biopsy procedure)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Feb 2013.
