About this study

Official title: Sleep Disorders in Patients With Suspected Lung Cancer Before and After Thoracic Surgery: A Multicenter, Observational, Prospective Cohort Study

The main aim of this study is to prospectively evaluate the occurrence of sleep disorders in patients undergoing thoracic surgery due to the preliminary diagnosis of lung cancer. Secondary aims include anxiety, depressive mood and functional outcomes before and 3 months after the intervention.

Read the detailed description

Cancer surgery is one of the traumas that affect human life, starting from diagnostic procedures, along with the recovery process. Although 5-year survival in lung cancer has increased to 60%, there is a general prejudice that lung cancer has a poor prognosis. A preliminary diagnosis of a such condition has consequently a negative effect on the mood and sleep patterns of the patients, starting already from the beginning of the diagnostic procedures. In our study, we want to evaluate the occurrence of sleep disorders, anxiety, depressive mood and functional outcomes before and 3 months after the surgical intervention. This would also help us to better identify the patients in need for professional support for sleep disorders as well as psychiatric conditions, and thus, a better management of patients with lung cancer.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Functional Outcome of Sleep Questionnaire Turkish version (FOSQ-TR)Other

    Sleep related quality of life questionnaire.

  • Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS)Other

    Subjective level of daytime sleepiness.

  • Berlin QuestionnaireOther

    Evaluation of high-risk for Obstructive Sleep Apnea.

  • Stop-Bang QuestionnaireOther

    Evaluation of high-risk Obstructive Sleep Apnea.

  • Insomnia QuestionnaireOther

    Subjective evaluation of insomnia.

    Subjective evaluation of Restless Leg Syndrome.

  • Zung Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS)Other

    Subjective test for evaluation of depressive mood.

  • Beck Anxiety InventoryOther

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline in Functional Outcome of Sleep Questionnaire scores

    Sleep related quality of life. Score range: 5-20 points, with higher scores indicating better functional status.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Change from baseline in Epworth Sleepiness Scale scores

    Excessive daytime sleepiness. Score range: 0-24 points, with higher scores indicating greater daytime sleepiness. Scores ≥11 are generally considered to be abnormal, or positive for excessive daytime sleepiness.

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Change from baseline in Berlin Questionnaire scores

    High-risk Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Patients can be classified into High Risk or Low Risk based on their responses to the individual items and their overall scores in the symptom categories.

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Change from baseline in STOP-BANG questionnaire scores

    High-risk Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Score range: 0-8 points, patients with a STOP-Bang score of 0 to 2 can be classified as low risk for moderate to severe OSA whereas those with a score of 5 to 8 can be classified as high risk for moderate to severe OSA.

    The STOP-BANG is an assessment tool used to help diagnose Obstructive Sleep Apnea

    Measured: 3 months

  5. Change from baseline in Insomnia questionnaire scores

    Insomnia questionnaire. Score range: 0-28 points, with higher scores indicating greater insomnia severity.

    Measured: 3 months

  6. Change from baseline in Restless Legs Syndrome questionnaire scores

    Restless Leg Syndrome questionnaire. Score range: 0-4 points, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change from baseline in Zung Self-rating Depression Scale scores

    Zung Self-rating Depression Scale. Score range: 0-80 points, most people with depression score between 50 and 69, while a score of 70 and above indicates severe depression.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Change from baseline in Beck Anxiety Inventory scores

    Self-rating anxiety scale. Score range: 0-63 points, a total score of 0 - 7 is interpreted as a "Minimal" level of anxiety; 8 - 15 as "Mild"; 16 - 25 as "Moderate", and; 26 - 63 as "Severe".

    Measured: 3 months
