Suspected Lung Cancer Clinical Trial
Official title:
How Burdensome is the Diagnostic Phase ? Distress and Quality of Life in Patients Suspected of Having a (Serious) Lung Disease
The purpose of this study is to gain insight in the distress experience and quality of life of patients suspected of having a serious lung disease during the diagnostic phase and the period between diagnosis and start of treatment
A life-threatening disease often leads to distress, an emotional experience that can interfere with coping. Studies in lung cancer patients show high prevalence of distress during the course of the disease. However until now, very few research was done during the diagnostic workup. This prospective study will describe and explore distress, quality of life and illness perception in lung cancer patients during the diagnostic period until first follow-up visit 4 weeks after start of therapy. Patient reported questionnaires will be used. ;
