简要总结
The goal of this research study is to learn the opinion of patients and their caregiving about a couple-based Hatha Yoga program during treatment for cancer. Researchers also want to learn the effect of this program on lung function, distress, and quality of life.
详细描述
If participant agrees to take part, participant's medical history and demographic information (such as age, sex, and race) will be recorded. By signing this consent, participant also agrees that participant's caregiving partner will be approached to take part in this study.
Questionnaires:
Participant will complete about 10 questionnaires before participant's first radiation treatment and again after participant completes participant's treatment schedule (usually 6 weeks later). The questionnaires ask about participant's health, any symptoms participant may be having, participant's mood, participant's level of fatigue, participant's sleeping habits, participant's relationship, and participant's quality of life. It should take about 45 minutes to complete these questionnaires.
Participant will complete about 5 questionnaires again halfway through participant's radiation treatment schedule. These questionnaires ask about participant's quality of life. These should take about 20 minutes to complete.
During each week of radiation therapy, participant will also complete a questionnaire asking participant's feelings about the Hatha Yoga sessions. Participant will be asked to list what participant liked or disliked, what participant found most and least useful, and how participant would rate the instructor. Participant will also be asked about how often participant practices outside of class and if participant thinks they are benefitting from the Hatha Yoga program. It should take about 5 minutes to answer this questionnaire. Participant's answers to the questions will not be shared with participant's caregiving partner.
