Official title
Nurse-Led Parent Educational Discharge Support Strategies (PEDSS) for Children Newly Diagnosed With Cancer
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
After the initial hospitalization, parents of children newly diagnosed with cancer assume responsibility for assessing and managing their care; however, parents are often overwhelmed with information received throughout the hospitalization and are apprehensive about caring for their child at home. Parents want concise, focused information on how to care for their child after the hospital discharge. Two parent education discharge support strategies (PEDSS) were created to use at hospital discharge. PEDSS consists of a symptom management intervention and a support for the caregiver intervention. A cluster randomized control trial will assess the effectiveness and feasibility of the two different interventions.
