简要总结
Patients with pituitary tumours often live with life-long consequences of their disease. Treatment options include surgery, radiotherapy and medical therapy. Symptoms associated with the tumour and/or its treatment affects several areas of life. The year after pituitary surgery constitutes an important time-period with medical evaluations of surgery and decisions on hormonal substitution. The development and evaluation of extended patient support during this time-point is limited. Care based on person-centredness has exclusively been promoted which comprises a care where care providers inquire how patients view their health situation and what their needs, resources, and preferences are. Person-centredness focuses on preserving patient autonomy, function, and well-being and strives to emphasize patient involvement through equalizing power between health care professionals and the patient with the main goal of an enhanced health situation. The aim of the study is to evaluate if a support within a person-centered care practice one year after surgery increases wellbeing for patients with pituitary tumours.

The outcome is assessed with The Psychological General Well-being scale (PGWB), a questionnaire with 22 items, comprising six subscales: anxiety, depression, positive well-being, self-control, general health and vitality. The Swedish version of the questionnaire is valid. Total score of 132 is an overall score of the values from each item (score 1-6 for each item). Higher value is indicative for better psychological well-being. A sum score for each subscale can be calculated, minimum and maximum score; anxiety (5-30), depression (3-18), positive well-being (4-24), self-control (3-18), general health (3-18) and vitality (4-24).
