SAMPLE & SETTING: This observational study assessed 22 patients with surgically managed head and neck cancer–related tracheostomy and 17 family caregivers at a comprehensive cancer center. METHODS & VARIABLES: Instruments included the Impact of Event Scale–Revised, the Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale, and the PatientReported Outcomes Measurement Information System Depression 6a Short Form scale. RESULTS: Post-traumatic distress related to tracheostomy and general depression in patients and family caregivers was highly prevalent. An increased level of physical symptoms was moderately correlated with higher levels of post-traumatic distress. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING: Patients who experienced higher symptom burden may also suffer from post-traumatic distress related to tracheostomy. Oncology nurses can implement post-traumatic distress screening in patients and their family caregivers. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
