简要总结
This research study is examining the feasibility and effectiveness of an online version of the Storytelling Through Music (STM) program with oncology nurses who have worked during the COVID-19 pandemic.
详细描述
This study employs a two-group, randomized controlled trial design that will utilize quantitative and qualitative methods to evaluate the feasibility and intervention effect of an alternative delivery (online) of the Storytelling Through Music program (STM).
Previous study of In-person delivery of Storytelling Through Music program STM with oncology nurses found it to be feasible and beneficial to coping with stress and work-related emotions.
The research study procedures include: screening for eligibility and study intervention including follow-up surveys.
Participants will be randomized into two (2) groups: Storytelling Through Music (STM) and Waitlist (Storytelling Through Music-Hybrid)
STM group: Participants are led through a writing workshop over an online platform (i.e., Zoom or an equivalent) to develop their story. Simultaneous with the writing sessions are 10-minute self-care lessons. At the end of the development workshop, each participant will be paired with a songwriter who will turn participant stories into songs. A final workshop will be held for participants to debrief about the emotional experience of participating in the Storytelling Through Music program (STM)

结局指标
主要结局
Feasibility of intervention
时间窗: 6 weeks
Primary endpoint is feasibility using visual analog scale Descriptive statistics will be used on the visual analog scale questions for analysis of feasibility. This intervention will be deemed feasible if 85% of the intervention is completed and 60% find it acceptable.
Acceptability of intervention
时间窗: 6 weeks
Additional primary endpoint is acceptability using descriptive qualitative data. Open-ended questions will prompt participants to provide insights into quantitative findings and the acceptability of the intervention. This intervention will be deemed feasible if 85% of the intervention is completed and 60% find it acceptable.
