About this study

Official title: Development and Evaluation of Comprehensive Care Program for Their Return to Normal Life and Community Among Lung Cancer Survivors

The purpose of this study is to develop a comprehensive care program for their return to normal life and community among lung cancer survivors and evaluate the effectiveness of the program.

Read the detailed description

Lung cancer patients scheduled for curative surgery will be enrolled in this study. The comprehensive care program will be developed, and provided to the intervention group before and after surgery. Outcomes will be assessed 6 months and 1 year after surgery. To evaluate the effectiveness of the program, a control group will be enrolled first and used as a comparator.

What participants receive

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

  • Comprehensive care programOther

    Also called Education and re-evaluation process

    Comprehensive care program includes education and re-evaluation process. Education using video-materials to help patients adapt to the new normal before and after surgery. And re-evaluation patient's needs 1 month after surgery and arrangement resources.

  • Usual careOther

    Also called Providing usual care

    Usual care includes encouraging deep breathing and exercise using inspirometer, postoperative early ambulation, giving information at discharge and follow up 1 month after surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Mental adjustment to cancer at 6 months after surgery

    The Mini-Mental Adjustment to Cancer (Mini-MAC) scale, a short form instrument derived from the MAC and designed to measure coping with cancer. The scale consists of 29 items and 5 sub-dimensions as follows: Fighting spirit, helplessness/hopelessness, anxious preoccupation, fatalism and cognitive avoidance. The mini-MAC is a Likert type scale with four response options: (1) definitely does not apply to me (2) does not apply to me (3) applies to me (4) definitely applies to me.

    Measured: 6 months after surgery

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Quality of life (EORTC QLQ-C30)

    The quality of life is assessed by the European Organization for Research Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire core30 (EORTC QLQ-C30). The scale for quality of life is transformed into a score from 0 to 100, derived by 4-point Likert scale. Higher scores represent a better quality of life.

    Measured: Before surgery (baseline) and 1, 6, 12 months after surgery

  2. Lung cancer specific symptoms

    The symptoms are assessed by the European Organization for Research Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire lung cancer module 13 (EORTC QLQ-LC13). The scale for symptom is transformed into a score from 0 to 100, derived by 4-point Likert scale. Higher scores mean a more burden of disease.

    Measured: Before surgery (baseline) and 1, 6, 12 months after surgery

  3. Dyspnea (mMRC)

    Dyspnea is measured by the modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale (mMRC). The mMRC scales grade 0 to grade 4, based on the severity of dyspnea.

    Measured: Before surgery (baseline) and 1, 6, 12 months after surgery

  4. Dyspnea (CAT)

    Dyspnea is also measured by COPD Assessment Test (CAT). Range of CAT scores from 0-40. Higher scores denote a more severe impact of COPD on a patient's life.

    Measured: Before surgery (baseline) and 1, 6, 12 months after surgery

  5. Unmet Needs

    Unmet needs are assessed by the Cancer Survivors' Unmet Needs (CaSUN). There are 5 domains; existential survivorship (14-item), Comprehensive Cancer Care (6-item), Information (3-item), Quality of Life (2-item), Relationships (3-item). It assesses the unmet needs and strength of needs. In this study, only the information domain is investigated.

    Measured: Before surgery (baseline) and 1, 6, 12 months after surgery

  6. Anxiety and depression

    Anxiety and depression are assessed by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). The HADS is a 14-item instrument that reflects two dimensions; depression (seven items) and anxiety (seven items). Each item is rated on a 4-point scale from 0 to 3, with a maximum of 21 for anxiety and depression.

    Measured: Before surgery (baseline) and 6, 12 months after surgery

  7. Physical Activity

    Physical activity is assessed by International Physical Activity Questionnaire-7 (IPAQ-7). This questionnaire measures duration (minutes) and frequency (days) of physical activity in the last 7 days.

    Measured: Before surgery (baseline) and 1, 6, 12 months after surgery

  8. Mental adjustment to cancer

    The Mini-Mental Adjustment to Cancer (Mini-MAC) scale, a short form instrument derived from the MAC and designed to measure coping with cancer. The scale consists of 29 items and 5 sub-dimensions as follows: Fighting spirit, helplessness/hopelessness, anxious preoccupation, fatalism and cognitive avoidance. The mini-MAC is a Likert type scale with four response options: (1) definitely does not apply to me (2) does not apply to me (3) applies to me (4) definitely applies to me.

    Measured: Before surgery (baseline) and 12 months after surgery

  9. Distress

    NCCN Distress Thermometer \& Problem List

    Measured: Before surgery (baseline) and 1, 6, 12 months after surgery
