简要总结
The aim of this study is to explore whether an intensified informational intervention built upon the Representational approach framework can reduce stress in parents of children with cancer.
详细描述
BACKGROUND
Parents of children with cancer have great information needs and report that these are not always met. Psychosocial suffering such as stress and anxiety is also common in this group.
HYPOTHESIS
An informational intervention emanating from the needs identified by parents is associated to decreased perceived stress, decreased depressive symptoms, decreased anxiety, increased satisfaction with information and decreased use of health care contacts in parents.
