About this study

Official title: Effect of Evidence-Based Nursing Intervention Under Quantitative Evaluation Strategy on Psychological Resilience and Illness Perception in Lung Cancer Patients Undergoing Chemotherapy

This study investigates the effect of an evidence-based nursing intervention, guided by a quantitative evaluation strategy, on psychological resilience and illness perception in lung cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Patients were randomized to receive either the specialized nursing intervention or routine nursing care, with outcomes assessed at baseline and 3 months post-intervention.

Read the detailed description

Lung cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy often experience significant physical and psychological distress. Conventional nursing may not adequately address these multifaceted needs. Evidence-based nursing (EBN) integrates research evidence, clinical expertise, and patient preferences. This study evaluated an EBN intervention model guided by a quantitative evaluation strategy, which involves multidisciplinary risk assessment, tailored interventions including psychological support, cognitive restructuring, and complication prevention. The study aimed to determine if this model could improve psychological resilience, illness perception, coping styles, and reduce chemotherapy-related complications in lung cancer patients compared to routine nursing care. A total of 142 patients were randomized. The intervention group received a comprehensive EBN program including risk stratification, psychological/cognitive interventions (e.g., cognitive-behavioral techniques, peer mentoring, family counseling), systematic complication prevention (e.g., prophylactic antiemetics, dietary guidance, infection control), and sleep optimization. The control group received standard disease education, exercise guidance, and medication adherence counseling. Outcomes were measured at baseline and 3 months post-intervention.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Evidence-Based Nursing Intervention under Quantitative Evaluation StrategyBehavioural

    A multifaceted nursing program incorporating comprehensive risk assessment, dynamic risk stratification, psychological and cognitive interventions (including cognitive-behavioral techniques, peer mentoring, family counseling), systematic complication prevention strategies (including prophylactic antiemetics, dietary guidance, infection control), and sleep optimization protocols.

  • Routine Nursing CareBehavioural

    Standard disease education on chemotherapy side effects and self-management, personalized exercise guidance, and medication adherence counseling. Delivered in 30-minute sessions twice weekly for two months.

Study groups in NCT07049250
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Evidence-Based Nursing Intervention GroupExperimentalParticipants (n=71) received evidence-based nursing intervention guided by quantitative evaluation strategy. This included: 1) comprehensive risk assessments by a multidisciplinary team; 2) dynamic risk stratification for care intensity; 3) psychological and cognitive interventions (cognitive-behavioral techniques, peer mentoring, family counseling); 4) systematic complication prevention strategies (prophylactic antiemetics, dietary guidance, infection control); 5) sleep optimization protocols.
Receives: Behavioral: Evidence-Based Nursing Intervention under Quantitative Evaluation Strategy
Routine Nursing Care GroupActive comparatorParticipants (n=71) received routine nursing care. This consisted of standard disease education covering chemotherapy side effects and self-management strategies, personalized exercise guidance focusing on maintaining physical function, and medication adherence counseling, delivered in 30-minute sessions twice weekly for a duration of two months.
Receives: Behavioral: Routine Nursing Care

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Psychological Resilience Score

    Psychological resilience assessed using the 25-item Resilience Scale. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better psychological resilience. The scale measures optimism, resilience, and strength subdomains.

    Measured: Baseline and 3 months post-intervention.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in Illness Perception

    Illness perception assessed using the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (B-IPQ). This evaluates emotional, cognitive, and comprehension domains, with each item scored from 0 to 10. Higher scores in relevant domains indicate more positive or accurate illness perception.

    Measured: Baseline and 3 months post-intervention.

  2. Change in Coping Styles

    Coping styles measured by the Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ) to distinguish between active and passive coping strategies. Higher scores for active coping and lower scores for passive coping are generally considered favorable.

    Measured: Baseline and 3 months post-intervention.

  3. Incidence of Chemotherapy-Related Complications

    Occurrence of chemotherapy-related complications including gastrointestinal reactions, pulmonary infections, hepatorenal toxicity, bone marrow suppression, and phlebitis. Assessed as percentage of patients experiencing each complication.

    Measured: Assessed throughout the 3-month post-intervention period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Evidence-Based Nursing Intervention under Quantitative Evaluation Strategy and Routine Nursing Care in people with Lung Cancer, run by The First Hospital of Hebei Medical University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jul 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Psychological Resilience Score (time frame: Baseline and 3 months post-intervention.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Jul 2025.
