A Comparison of Skin Grafts Versus Local Flaps for Facial Skin Cancer From the Patient Perspective: A Feasibility Study
研究概览
地位
详细说明
A prospective single-centered feasibility study will be conducted. The purpose of the feasibility study is to define the variables to be included in a subsequent pilot study, assess the feasibility of conducting a prospective cohort study, and the logistics for the study (i.e., training, patient recruitment, data collection, statistical analysis, etc.).
Upon completion of the feasibility study, a prospective pilot cohort study would be performed to measure outcomes using the FACE-Q Skin Cancer module for patients receiving skin grafting or local flaps after excision of facial skin cancers.

Exclusion Criteria:
Patients will be excluded in the study if they:
- present with altered level of consciousness,
- cannot provide consent,

Skin graft
|
As both interventions of treatment are gold standards and clinical equipoise exists if one intervention is superior to the other, there is no true control group. However, for the purpose of the application, the local flap group will be chosen as the "control" group. Skin graft (Experimental): Participants in the experimental group will receive a skin graft and receive the FACE-Q skin cancer questionnaire pre- and post-treatment. There will also be photos taken of the patient's face along with the distributed questionnaires. Local flap (Control): Participants in the experimental group will receive a local flap and receive the FACE-Q questionnaire pre- and post-treatment. |

FACE-Q评分
大体时间:12个月

FACE-Q 是最近开发和验证的患者报告结果测量 (PROM) 工具,允许临床医生评估面部皮肤癌手术后患者的观点。PROM 用于评估皮肤癌及其治疗的观点和影响患者的生活质量 (QoL)。
皮肤癌患者在手术后可能会增加焦虑、社交孤立和美容问题。
FACE-Q 使用五个量表来衡量心理测量、QoL、患者体验和美容效果。
