Resiliency in Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy for Bladder Cancer
Resiliency in Patients Undergoing Radical Cystectomy for Bladder Cancer
This is a prospective cross-sectional survey-based study composed of both a retrospective chart review and 3-series patient survey. This study will help elicit potential areas throughout the perioperative course of radical cystectomy to improve patient resilience and quality of life, providing opportunity for future interventional studies.
This is a prospective cross-sectional survey-based study composed of both a retrospective chart review and 3-series patient survey. This study will help elicit potential areas throughout the perioperative course of radical cystectomy to improve patient resilience and quality of life, providing opportunity for future interventional studies. Primarily, the study will evaluate health related quality of life and resiliency in patients throughout the perioperative course of a radical cystectomy for bladder cancer.
The primary objective will be the correlation of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-25) and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bladder-Cystectomy (FACT-BL-Cys) score.
Patients will be identified and undergo consent and baseline assessments, including completion of surveys prior to their cystectomy. A retrospective chart review will also be completed to record information regarding patient's cancer stage, treatment status, diagnosis date, insurance type, and related medical conditions and medications. Data from retrospective chart review will be collected and recorded in a secure REDCap database for all eligible patients.
Subsequent surveys will be administered again at approximately 10-30 days postoperatively, as well as 60-120 days postoperatively.
