About this study

Official title: Malignant Pleural Effusions: Evaluating the psYchosocial Impact of Indwelling Pleural Catheters on Patients (MY-IPC)

The purpose of this study is to better understand the impact that Indwelling Pleural Catheters have on patients with malignant pleural effusions from a psychosocial point of view.

Read the detailed description

After being informed about the study, all patients giving written informed consent will undergo a baseline assessment including disease and social characteristics on the day of their Indwelling Pleural Catheter (IPC) insertion. At 2 weeks and 6-8 weeks post insertion, they will be contacted via telephone for a semi-structured interview focusing on the psychosocial impact that the IPC has had on their lives. Data surrounding the medical care of the IPC will also be collected.
