RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In France, the issue of youth smoking remains a major challenge for public health. School failure, socio-economic and socio-cultural backgrounds influence the initiation and maintenance of smoking behavior in adolescents. Vocational students are at particularly high risk of using psychoactive substances, including tobacco. One of the most important factors is the environment, whether family, friends or peers. Therefore, peer education has a positive potential to change smoking behavior of adolescents. It has also been demonstrated that the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) has yielded the best prediction of intentions and behavior, in several health domains, including on tobacco. However, it is usually confined to the measurement of processes by which interventions change behavior, rather than to the development of these interventions. The objective of this paper is to describe the protocol for a randomized controlled trial of a peer intervention based on the TPB on a highly exposed young population. METHODS/DESIGNS: This is a cluster randomized controlled trial comparing an intervention group to a control group, randomized into clusters (professional schools and classes) and stratified in three departments (Hérault, Aude and Gard) in the Languedoc-Roussillon region. The primary issue is the prevalence of daily smoking at 24 months, defined by a daily tobacco use of at least 1 cigarette, validated by CO levels in exhaled air. The primary hypothesis is that intervention will lead to decrease the daily smoking prevalence of 10% between the intervention group and the control group during a 2-year follow-up. DISCUSSION: The results from this trial will provide evidence on the effectiveness of an innovative peer-to-peer intervention based on the TPB. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ISRCTN: 37336035 , Retrospectively registered 11/12/2015.

RESUMO

The integration of the therapeutic education of the patient into a clinical pathway approach helps to optimise nursing practice. Despite some limits, this method allows the position of the caregiver to evolve, going beyond the required methodological framework. It results in the emergence of several new educational facets which are essential for the patient and enable them to become a player in their own care.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for head and neck cancer (HNC) induces side-effects, including trismus, which impairs quality of life by causing difficulty to eat, speak, and maintain good oral hygiene, and by altering social life. Given the wide variation of reported trismus prevalence and as a first mandatory step for the preventive physiotherapy OPEN program (NCT03979924) this study evaluated trismus occurrence and its link with radiation doses. METHODS: Study population was non-larynx HNC patients with epidermoid carcinoma treated with CRT, with or without surgery. A physiotherapist measured maximal interincisal distance before, during and after CRT, at 10 weeks and 6 months. The proportion of patients with trismus (with a 95% confidence interval) was estimated. Irradiation doses were analyzed between patients with and without trismus using non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test. RESULTS: We included 45 patients (77.8% male), median age 61 years (range 41-77). The proportion of trismus at baseline was 24.4%, 26.8% at 10 weeks and 37.1% at 6 months. During radiotherapy, it was 27.9% at week 3 and increased to 41.9% at week 6. Trismus occurrence at 10 weeks was higher when the radiation dose to the ipsilateral lateral pterygoid muscle was above the median value, that is, 36.8 grays. CONCLUSION: Trismus occurrence differed according to radiation dose and cancer location. These findings highlight the necessity of early preventive physiotherapy programs to reduce trismus occurrence. The second step, of the interventional multicenter OPEN program, is currently evaluating the impact of preventive physiotherapy and patient education on trismus in a sample of 175 patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Osteo-articular pain (OAP) is experienced by approximately 50% of women under hormonal therapy (HT) for breast cancer (BC), which increases the risk for therapy discontinuation. This study was aimed to assess benefits of yoga practice combined with patient education (PE) for at-home practice by evaluating feasibility among BC patients under HT and measuring OAP, flexibility and satisfaction. METHODS: Feasibility was evaluated by patient adherence as accomplishment of at least 4 out of 6 supervised yoga-PE sessions along with 70% or more at-home yoga sessions. Intervention (12 weeks) included two 6-weeks periods: P1 comprising one 90-minutes supervised yoga-PE session/week and 15-minutes daily at-home yoga and P2, daily autonomous at-home yoga sessions. Evaluations (at inclusion and by the end of each period) consisted in assessment of OAP on Visual Analog Scale (VAS), forward flexibility (cm) and patient satisfaction on Likert (0-10 points) scale. RESULTS: Between September 2018 and May 2019 we included 24 patients of median 53 years (range 36-72). Feasibility was validated by 83% successful adherence rate. Pain was significantly reduced from median VAS of 6 [range 4-10] to 4 [range 0-7] at the end of both P1 and P2 (p < 0.01), albeit with no difference between P1 and P2. Forward flexibility improved by a median gain of 8 cm (end of P2) and median satisfaction score of 10/10 [range 8-10]. CONCLUSION: Combined physiotherapy-yoga-PE intervention is a feasible strategy to increase at-home yoga practice with potential benefit on pain, flexibility, and satisfaction, thus prompting further evaluations in larger randomized multicenter trials.

RESUMO

After a brief semantic and historical presentation, the article presents the main trials and systematic reviews on the tertiary prevention and care of cancers through physical activity. It gives the keys to understanding how, in forty years of research, interventions dedicated to prevent physical inactivity to reduce the risk of cancer have become as indispensable as adapted physical activity (APA) programs for care pathways. If the public health message "move more" with or without cancer remains true, the research encourages practitioners to implement personalized programs in primary prevention, in addition to treatment and prevention of recurrence. As soon as the diagnosis is made, APA programs will become truly supportive care complementary of treatments, in other words non-pharmacological interventions (NPIs), with the aim of improving the quality of life of patients, improving their overall health, reducing side effects of treatment, potentiate the effects of certain treatments, and reduce the risk of recurrence. Research remains to be carried out notably on the survival, on the advanced cancers and on the integrative modelling of the mechanisms involved.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Cancer-Related Fatigue (CRF), subjective symptom, is considered the most prevalent and disabling in cancer. To help caregivers better understand it, we developed and evaluated the psychometric properties of a visual analog scale to assess daily CRF. METHOD: In our qualitative study, we conducted interviews with caregivers, patients and scientists (N = 30) to generate items and select the scale's format. We then administered the final scale to a sample of 104 patients hospitalized for cancer surgery. In our quantitative study, we evaluated psychometric items with standardized questionnaires to compare and identify the construct validity of our fatigue scale. Because clinicians need a cutoff to diagnose fatigue in daily care, we also analyzed the scale's sensitivity. RESULTS: Correlations evidenced good construct validity for our scale, with r = 0.886 (p > 0.01), confirming that both physical fatigue and psychological fatigue (r = 0.768) were effectively measured. The Receiver Operating Curve (ROC) showed good sensitivity and specificity (>0.80), giving clinicians a threshold to identify tired patients, with only a 3% chance of misdiagnosis. CONCLUSION: The Daily Fatigue Cancer Scale is a good tool to detect patient fatigue and improve patient care.
