Feasibility and Acceptability of A RN-Led Palliative and Supportive Care Intervention for Adults With Acute Leukemia

Comparison of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) Score in Cycle 1.

时间窗: Baseline, up to 30 days

Mean Overall, Physical, Emotional, and Fatigue Quality of Life (QOL) scores were assessed using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) in control and intervention arms at Cycle 1. The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a cancer-specific instrument with 30 questions that incorporates 9 multi-item scales: 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social); 9 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, nausea and vomiting, dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties); and a global health and quality-of-life scale. Most questions used a 4-point scale (1 =Not at all to 4 =Very much); 2 questions used a 7-point scale (1 =Very poor to 7 =Excellent). A higher score=better level of functioning or greater degree of symptoms. The scores of these scales were averaged from the scores of the component items, transformed, and analyzed on a 0 - 100 scale.

Feasibility and Acceptability

时间窗: Baseline

Feasibility and acceptability will be assessed as the number of participants who were approached, consented to, and eligible for the study.

Comparison of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) Scores Between Cycle 1 and Cycle 2.

时间窗: Baseline and until day 30 (Cycle 1 and Cycle 2)

Overall, Physical, Emotional, and Fatigue Quality of Life (QOL) scores were assessed using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) in the intervention arm both at Cycle 1 and 2. Score difference for each subject and mean differences between scores were calculated. The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a cancer-specific instrument with 30 questions that incorporates 9 multi-item scales. Most questions used a 4-point scale (1 =Not at all to 4 =Very much); 2 questions used a 7-point scale (1 =Very poor to 7 =Excellent). A higher score=better level of functioning or greater degree of symptoms. The scores of these scales were averaged from the scores of the component items, transformed, and analyzed on a 0 - 100 scale.

时间窗: 30 days after starting to the study

Mean Overall, Physical, Emotional, and Fatigue Quality of Life (QOL) scores were assessed using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) in control and intervention arms at Cycle 2.
