Study summary

This study focuses on patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer who receive intravesical perfusion therapy. Outpatient perfusion treatment is usually short-term and procedure-oriented, so patients often lack continuous, comprehensive support after returning home, and may face physical discomfort, psychological stress and unmet self-management needs during home recovery. This study aims to identify real-world difficulties and needs of patients in home-based recovery, construct a personalized home supportive care program covering physical symptom relief, psychological support and disease management education, and test its preliminary application effect. It is expected to reduce patients' treatment-related discomfort, improve treatment adherence, and enhance their quality of life.

Read the detailed description

(1)Identification of Supportive Care Needs for Patients Receiving Postoperative Intravesical Chemotherapy for Non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (Qualitative Study): Employing a descriptive qualitative research approach based on the Supportive Care Needs Framework, semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with patients undergoing postoperative intravesical chemotherapy for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). This systematically explored the authentic care needs of patients across multiple dimensions including physiological, psychological, social, emotional, spiritual, informational, and practical aspects, providing precise evidence for subsequent scheme development.

(2) Summary of Best Evidence for Supportive Care of NMIBC Patients Undergoing Postoperative Intravesical Chemotherapy (Evidence-Based Research): Centered on the core needs identified through qualitative research, an evidence-based nursing research methodology was utilized. Systematic retrieval of domestic and international databases, guideline websites, and evidence-based resource libraries was performed. The retrieved clinical guidelines, expert consensus statements, systematic reviews, randomized controlled trials, and quasi-experimental studies underwent rigorous quality assessment and evidence extraction to formulate a comprehensive summary of best supportive care evidence for this population.

(3) Development of a Supportive Care Scheme for NMIBC Patients Undergoing Postoperative Intravesical Chemotherapy (Delphi Method): Integrating patient needs derived from qualitative research with best evidence from evidence-based research, a draft supportive care scheme was formulated. The Delphi expert consultation method was employed, inviting experts from urology medicine, nursing, and rehabilitation fields to participate in two rounds of consultations. Through calculation of expert positive coefficient, authority coefficient, and Kendall's harmony coefficient, items were screened and revised, ultimately constructing a scientific, systematic, and operable supportive care scheme.

(4) Evaluation of the Feasibility of the Supportive Care Scheme: Following scheme formulation, feasibility evaluation was conducted using NMIBC patients receiving postoperative intravesical chemotherapy attending the outpatient department of a tertiary hospital in Nanjing. Participants were divided into an intervention group (receiving the newly developed supportive care scheme) and a control group (receiving routine outpatient care). During the study, patient recruitment and retention rates, intervention implementation processes, and compliance were observed and recorded. Post-intervention, acceptability of the scheme and perceived implementation burden by both patients and staff were collected to evaluate its feasibility in clinical practice.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

Patients diagnosed with NMIBC, who have undergone TURBT and are receiving intravesical perfusion therapy; Aged 18 years old or above; Clear consciousness with basic literacy and communication skills; Expected survival time ≥ 6 months; Voluntary participation with signed .

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients complicated with severe cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, hepatic or renal dysfunction, or mental disorders; Patients combined with other malignant tumors; Patients with a history of severe allergic reactions or to intravesical perfusion therapy.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Supportive care program

    Establishing a Dedicated Nursing Team: The team consists of one urology specialty nurse (team leader), one attending physician, one rehabilitation therapist, one dietitian, one psychological counselor, and the researchers of this study. All members received uniform protocol training prior to intervention to ensure homogeneity in intervention delivery. This comprehensive supportive care program is implemented for patients undergoing post-operative intravesical therapy for non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer, encompassing physiological/practical support, informational support, psychological/emotional support, and social/spiritual support, with the aim of enhancing treatment adherence and quality of life.

    Behavioral: Supportive care program

  • Active comparator
    Implementing routine urology outpatient infusion nursing

    Includes: routine medical history inquiry and verification prior to infusion; monitoring of the patient's vital signs and clinical condition changes during infusion; routine verbal instructions on post-infusion precautions (such as increased water intake and frequent urination) after infusion; distribution of standard outpatient paper educational materials; and simple telephone follow-up in accordance with departmental routine procedures.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Clinical Treatment Adherence

    Treatment adherence will be evaluated by infusion completion rate,calculated as (actual number of infusions received / total planned infusions prescribed) × 100%.

    Time frame: 6 months after intervention

Secondary outcomes

  1. Bladder-cancer-specific quality of life

    This outcome will evaluate bladder-cancer-specific quality of life using the validated Chinese version of the EORTC-QLQ-NMIBC24 scale. Higher scores correspond to greater symptom burden and worse quality-of-life status.

    Time frame: Baseline、3 months、6 months after intervention

  2. Recruitment rate and infoermed consent rate

    Calculate the proportion of eligible patients who sign informed consent and formally enroll into the study among all screened eligible subjects.

    Time frame: Baseline

  3. Patient Satisfaction and Acceptance

    A self-designed questionnaire with 5 items using 5-point Likert scale is adopted to score patients'satisfaction and acceptance of the supportive care program

    Time frame: 3months after intervention

  4. Satisfaction of supportive care needs

    The Short-Form Supportive Care Needs Survey (SCNS-SF34) is administered at three time points to evaluate changes in patients' supportive care needs between two groups.

    Time frame: Baseline, 3 months after intervention, 6 months after intervention

When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
