Symptom Clusters in Hong Kong Chinese Children With Blood Cancer

Child Clinical Trial

Official title:
Symptom Clusters in Hong Kong Chinese Children With Blood Cancer:: A Longitudinal Study

Clinical Trial Summary

Pediatric blood cancer is the most common childhood malignancy. Despite its survival has been substantially improved, children still have to pay a high price for numerous distressing symptoms resulted from chemotherapy. Previous studies related to symptom experiences mainly focus on individual symptoms, rather than on multiple symptoms. Understanding these distressing symptoms may help healthcare professionals to develop appropriate and effective interventions with the aims of alleviating symptom severity and thus promoting the child's psychosocial well-being and quality of life.

Clinical Trial Description

A longitudinal study design will be conducted. A sample of 120 patients age 5-17years, diagnosed with blood cancer but not yet receive any chemotherapy and able to communicate with Cantonese and read Chinese will be recruited in the pediatric oncology ward of Hong Kong Children's Hospital. ;
