简要总结
This pilot clinical trial studies how well psychoeducational and behavioral strategies work in reducing distress and anxiety in patients with multiple myeloma and their family caregivers. Education and walking programs, may be able to reduce distress and anxiety and improve the well-being and quality of life of patients with multiple myeloma and their family caregivers. Understanding how different forms of education and support can promote emotional wellness may help nurse researchers find ways to improve services provided to patients and family members during cancer treatment.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Evaluate the effect of the intervention, as compared to the control group, on emotional distress, the primary outcome, measured as anxiety in patients with multiple myeloma and their caregivers at the transition.
II. Evaluate the effect, including the effect size, of the intervention, as compared to the control group, on activation for self-management, fatigue, depression, and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in both patients and caregivers.
III. Assess the feasibility, acceptability, and content integrity of the intervention in patients with multiple myeloma and their family caregivers.
OUTLINE: Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.
