About this study

Official title: Analysis of the Effects of PERMA-Based Integrated Psychological Intervention on Negative Emotions, Treatment Adherence, and Complications in Postoperative Glioma Patients

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a PERMA-based integrated psychological intervention can reduce negative emotions, enhance treatment adherence, and decrease the risk of complications in postoperative glioma patients.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Read more

Can the PERMA-based psychological intervention significantly improve anxiety and depression scores in postoperative glioma patients? Does the intervention improve treatment adherence, reduce complications, and enhance quality of life compared to standard care? Researchers will compare an observation group receiving the PERMA-based psychological intervention to a control group receiving standard postoperative care to see if the intervention improves patient outcomes.

Participants will:

Receive either standard postoperative care (control group) or PERMA-based psychological intervention for one month (observation group).

Be assessed on:

Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS). Treatment Adherence Scale and Complication Record Form. Quality of Life Scale. Be followed for complications using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.

    1. Establishment of the Integrated Psychological Intervention Team: The team consisted of 2 primary nurses, 4 specialist nurses, 1 psychologist, 2 physicians at the attending level or higher, and 2 researchers. Team Responsibilities: The primary and specialist nurses were responsible for implementing the intervention protocol. The physicians handled any adverse reactions experienced by the patients. The researchers were in charge of developing the intervention protocol and collecting data. All team members were required to undergo specialized training from the psychologist and pass an assessment before initiating the intervention.
    2. Protocol Development: The intervention protocol, including specific content, team responsibilities, implementation process, and responses to adverse events, was carefully developed in written form by the researchers. The protocol was discussed and approved by all team members before implementation.

What is being measured

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

  1. SAS score

    Self-rating anxiety scale is a widely used psychological assessment tool designed to evaluate an individual's level of anxiety. There are 20 things on the scale, and a score of 100 is the total, assessing various anxiety-related emotions experienced by the participant over the past week. Each item is rated on a 4-point Likert scale, ranging from "no anxiety" to "extremely severe anxiety," where higher scores indicate more severe anxiety. Prior to and one month following the intervention, the SAS scores for each group were documented.

    Measured: After the four-week intervention

  2. SDS score

    Self-rating depression scale is a commonly used psychological assessment tool designed to evaluate an individual's level of depression. The scale typically consists of 20 items, with a total score of 100, covering various aspects of depression. Using a 4-point Likert scale that goes from "no depression" to "extremely severe depression," participants describe their moods over the course of the previous week. Higher scores signify more severe depression. The SDS scores for both groups were recorded before and one month after the intervention.

    Measured: After the four-week intervention

  3. treatment adherence

    Complete adherence: The patient actively cooperated with the medical and nursing staff, followed all prescribed treatments and interventions, and complied with medication, examinations, and other medical recommendations on a daily basis. Partial adherence: The patient generally cooperated with the medical and nursing staff but may not have fully adhered to all instructions. Non-adherence: The patient showed poor cooperation, requiring multiple reminders and explanations to comply with treatment protocols. The adherence rate was calculated as the sum of the complete and partial adherence rates. Adherence was recorded one month after the intervention.

    Measured: After the four-week intervention

  4. Incidence of postoperative complications

    Measured: During the four-week intervention

  5. The World Health Organization Quality of Life Brief Scale scores

    WHOQOL-BREF is a tool used to assess an individual's quality of life. This scale consists of 26 items, each with five options, rated from 1 to 5, with higher scores reflecting better outcomes (or from very satisfied to extremely dissatisfied). However, items 3, 4, and 26 are reverse-scored. Additionally, there are separate scores for family friction, appetite, and self-assessed survival quality. The scale covers four domains: physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environment. Participants rate their experiences over the past two weeks. Each domain score is calculated by summing the relevant item scores and standardizing them, yielding a range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better quality of life.

    Measured: After the four-week intervention
