Recovery and Rehabilitation After Lung Cancer Surgery
The specific aims of this translational, interdisciplinary, multi-center, international research study with 300 Lung cancer patients are to:
Aim 1 Explore how the patients experience the transfer between different locations and between different levels of care at the same location and how they experienced coming home.
Aim 2 Explore lung cancer patients' symptoms, symptom clusters, and changes in symptoms and symptom clusters over time.
Aim 3 Explore interaction between lung cancers patients' symptoms, symptom clusters, health related quality of life and social support.

Descripción detallada
Approximately 2500 patients are diagnosed with lung cancer annually i Norway, and approximately 400 of these undergo surgery. Many patients report that life after lung cancer surgery is difficult. After surgery, the patients are frequently transferred to a local hospital or to another level of care at the hospital where they were operated. The transfer is critical for patients' safety because communication failure is one of the most common causes of medical error.
Studies that have analyzed the quality of life of lung cancer patients after surgery reach different conclusions about the patients' Quality of life (QOL), some studies state that lung cancer patients are back to normal quality of life after 9 months, while others indicate that the patients still have reduced QOL two years after surgery. It is difficult to assess the reason for the differences in results as most of the studies used the same QOL questionnaire. Studies that have evaluated the social support that lung cancer patients receive indicate that lung cancer patients receive less support than other cancer patients.
Lung cancer patients have a wide range of physical problems (fatigue, dyspnea, coughing and pain) and psychological (depression) problems following surgery.
Based on findings from this literature review a need exist for improved postoperative follow-up of patients after surgery for lung cancer The proposed study will evaluate the social support, the levels of lung cancer stigma, symptoms and changes in this over time as well as evaluate patient experience with transfer in the immediate postoperative period.
