简要总结
Gynecological cancers are the sixth most common cancer forms and the number of survivors is increasing as a consequence of more efficient treatment and longer life span. As part of regulary care after cancer treatment the women have five years of follow-up with the primary focus on recurrence, aiming to increase survival. However, several studies have shown that there is no evidence for this assumption on increased survival (ref). There are now suggested alternative perspectives in the follow up period targeting late effects, health-related quality of life (QoL) and patient satisfaction with care.The main aim of the current study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of an internet-based psychosocial intervention for women treated with curative intent gynecological cancer. Another aim is to test the perceived effect on gynecological cancer survivors health-related self-care and QoL.

-
How is the perceived effect on the gynecological cancer survivors' competence, QoL, self-care and coping?
It is hypothesized that an internet-based psycho-social intervention will support women in developing self-competence and self-care which could be measured as increased QOL and secondarily affect the impact of cancer, distress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and self-reported ability to monitor and respond to symptoms of recurrence.

主要结局
The Impact of Cancer version 2
时间窗: up to 26 weeks
Designed to assess the physical and psychosocial health experience of cancer survivors through its positive and negative impacts. 47-item questionnaire organized into 4 positive (altruism and empathy (AE), health awareness (HA), meaning of cancer (MOC), positive self-evaluation (PSE)) and 4 negative (appearance concerns (AC), body change concerns (BCC), life interference (LI) and worry (W)) impact dimensions \[13\] corresponding to the first 37 items. The questionnaire also includes 10 additional items constituting conditional dimensions applicable to subsets of survivors assessing employment concerns (EC), relationship concerns for individuals with a partner (P), and relationship concerns for those without a partner (NP). All items are scored on a five-point scale from 1 = strongly disagree to 5 = strongly agree. A higher score on a dimension implies stronger endorsement of that content area
