Summary

This trial investigates whether an 8-week systematic symptom management nursing program can improve quality of life, self-management skills, and psychological resilience in people with advanced (stage IIIB–IV) lung cancer. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either routine care or the structured program. The study measures changes in quality of life, self-management efficacy, and other outcomes using validated questionnaires.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
standardized systematic symptom management nursing intervention
What this could lead to
If effective, this nursing program could become a standard way to help advanced lung cancer patients feel better and manage their own care more confidently.
What could go wrong
This is a single-center study with a modest sample size, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is behavioral, so benefits may vary from person to person.
