Addressing Sexual Concerns in Breast Cancer: Patient Intervention Study
15 марта 2021 г. обновлено: Fox Chase Cancer Center
Enhancing Patient-Provider Communication About Sexual Concerns in Breast Cancer: Patient Intervention Study
The goal of this study is to evaluate an educational video intervention (called Starting the Conversation) aimed to enhance breast cancer patients' beliefs about and communication with respect to sexual concerns.
In the current study, 128 breast cancer outpatients will be randomized to either participate in the video intervention and to receive a resource guide addressing sexual and menopausal health or to receive the resource guide alone.
Patients will be asked to participate in the video and/or read through the resource guide prior to their clinic visit with their breast cancer provider.
The investigators will examine effects of the interventions on patients' beliefs about communication about sexual health and on patients' communication about sexual health during clinic visits with their providers.
Secondarily, the investigators will examine effects of the interventions on sexual outcomes and other health outcomes, including psychological well-being and health-related QOL.

Активный компаратор: Resources Only
Patients will receive a list of resources on sexual and menopausal health in breast cancer.
They will be asked to review the resources before their next clinic visit.
|
Patients will receive a resource list that includes both web-based resources on menopausal and sexual health and center-specific resources, such as contact information for a menopausal & sexual health clinic.
|
|
Экспериментальный: Resources + Video
Patients will receive a list of web resources on sexual and menopausal health in breast cancer.
In addition to the resources, patients will be asked to view an online video called "Starting the Conversation" and to complete an accompanying workbook.
Patients in this arm will be asked to review the resource list, watch the Starting the Conversation video, and complete the workbook before their next clinic visit.

Patients will receive a resource list that includes both web-based resources on menopausal and sexual health and center-specific resources, such as contact information for a menopausal & sexual health clinic.
The Starting the Conversation program is designed to increase self-efficacy and outcome expectancies for communicating with providers about sexual health and related issues, reduce barriers to communication, and provide basic training in skills for communicating with providers about these topics, including prioritizing concerns, tips for effective communication, communication practice, and self-feedback.

Self-Reported Self-Efficacy for Communicating About Sexual Health Issues
Временное ограничение: 2 weeks
|
Two items assessed patients' self-efficacy (confidence) for communicating with their breast cancer clinician about sexual health concerns in terms of either talking (item 1) or asking (item 2) about sexual health.
Response options used an 11-point scale (0=not at all confident/not at all to 10=extremely confident/very much).
Mean scores across the two items were used, ranging from 0-10.
Higher scores indicate higher self-efficacy.
