About this study

Official title: Perspectives for Receiving Open Versus MIS (PROMIS) - Patients' Perspectives on Surgical Treatment of Lung and Esophageal Cancer

This study will examine the perspectives of patients' undergoing surgery for lung or esophageal cancer. It will examine both pre-op and post-op patient perspectives and opinions regarding pain and surgical complications. This study will also assess a general health related quality of life pre-op and post-op. Additionally, it will examine the importance of receiving care close to home and their support system.

Hypotheses:

  1. The data will allow investigators to better understand the willingness of patients to participate in prospective, randomized studies comparing minimally invasive and open thoracic surgery. Patients will not be willing to undergo randomization to an open versus minimally invasive surgical procedure.
  2. The pain associated with Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) will be perceived and documented as lesser than open surgery.
  3. Patients may be willing to accept a higher risk of complications or more post-operative pain if they were given the option to be cared for closer to their home.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in pain perceptions

    Patients will rate their perceptions of pain associated with surgery both pre-op and at 4 weeks and 6 months post-op.

    Measured: Baseline, 4 weeks and 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in general health related quality of life

    Patients will rate their general health related quality of life at pre-op, and post-op (4 weeks and 6 months) time points.

    Measured: Baseline, 4 weeks and 6 months
