Summary

This study tests a multimedia self-management program for people with stage I-III lung cancer who are about to have surgery, and their family caregivers. The program includes videos, a handbook, and nurse coaching to help both patients and caregivers feel more prepared. Researchers want to see if it reduces distress, eases caregiver burden, and improves quality of life after surgery.

What this could lead to
If it works, this program could help patients recover better after lung cancer surgery and reduce stress for their family caregivers.
What could go wrong
