Program aims to ease family stress when a parent has advanced cancer

NCT ID NCT05477784

Summary

This study tested two educational programs designed to help parents with late-stage, non-curable cancer communicate with their children aged 5-17. The goal was to improve the parent-child relationship, boost the parent's confidence in discussing the illness, and reduce anxiety and depression for both parent and child. Parents were randomly assigned to receive either a multi-session coaching program or an educational booklet with a follow-up call.
