Pages

  0-0

Abstract

 Background: Considering recent economic challenges, the short-term hospitalization of cancer patients for routine chemotherapy, and the lack of routine home visits for cancer patients in Iran, the Quality of Life of these patients after discharge can be a source of concern. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the eff ect of a planned Discharge Program on the Quality of Life of Gastrointestinal Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy in hospitals of Zahedan University of Medical Sciences. Methods: This clinical trial was conducted in 2018 on Gastrointestinal Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy in hospitals affi liated to the Zahedan University of Medical Sciences. The sample was selected by convenience sampling, and the participants were randomly assigned into two groups of intervention (n = 45) and control (n = 45). The intervention was performed in three 45 to 60minute sessions and sending text messages, which were based on the patients’ identifi ed problems and needs for the intervention group. Data collection tools included the QLQ-C30 questionnaire and a demographic characteristics form. Data were analyzed by SPSS V. 21 software using descriptive and analytical statistical tests. Results: The mean scores of the patients’ Quality of Life increased on most of the functional subscales and global health/Quality of Life in the intervention group. In the control group (routine care), however, no signifi cant diff erence was observed in most functional subscales of Quality of Life. There was a signifi cant change in the mean severity of symptoms in the intervention group so that the severity of symptoms decreased after the intervention. In the control group, there was a signifi cant diff erence in the mean severity of symptoms before and after the intervention so that the severity of symptoms increased in most cases. Conclusions: Home visits of cancer patients are not in routine care after discharge in Iran, and they are not covered by insurance companies. Thus, home visits are expensive. However, in areas where the economic index is low, and patients have little access to smartphones, the planned Discharge Program can be a suitable method to increase the Quality of Life of cancer patients.
