Official title
Understanding the Post-Surgical Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patient's Symptom Experience
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Little is known about the symptom experience of persons having undergone surgery for lung cancer. What we do know is that symptoms are common and can become severe and lasting. The main purpose of this study is two-fold: 1. To better understand the symptom experience of persons with lung cancer prior to surgery and for up to six weeks after returning home from the hospital. 2. To examine the role of a light physical activity program in persons who are undergoing surgery for lung cancer for the treatment of a specific symptom. The goals of this study include: * Collecting information about the participant's current and prior health history, symptoms, and health-related quality of life. * Assessing our ability to recruit participants to the study. * Assessing participant's level of participation. * Evaluating the participant's satisfaction with the program. We expect that patients after undergoing surgery for lung cancer during the recovery process will experience multiple symptoms. We also expect to find that a light intensity physical activity program will be feasible, acceptable, and show a positive impact on symptoms such as cancer-related fatigue and confidence for cancer-related fatigue self-management. Information gained from this randomized controlled trial study will be used to refine the design of future larger-scale studies targeting symptoms such as cancer-related fatigue for the lung cancer population.
