Study Description

Brief Summary: This study takes place in the Divisions of Urology. Patients who have only received hormonal therapy will be enrolled. Patients will be randomly sorted into an experimental group and a control group after completing a pretest questionnaire. The experimental group will receive the the multimedia hormone therapy information program once per week for 6 consecutive weeks, while the control group will receive routine care. The follow-up data collections will be completed at 8 and 12 weeks after the pretest. For quantitative measurement, the main variables will be social support, self-efficacy, quality of life, and positive thinking.

Detailed Description: This study takes place in the Divisions of Urology at Chang Gung Memorial Hospitals. Patients who have only received hormonal therapy will be enrolled. With reference to past research findings, self-efficacy theory, and experts' advice, a multimedia hormone therapy information program was developed. The multimedia hormone therapy information program covered 6 topics, namely the recognition of hormone therapy and multimedia information programs, mindfulness, exercise, stress relief, positive thinking, and prevention or reduction of fatigue. A pilot study will be conducted to check the feasibility of intervention study design and the effectiveness of the program will be tested. Patients will be randomly sorted into an experimental group (multimedia information group, n = 36 to 40) and a control group (routine care group, n = 36 to 40) after completing a pretest questionnaire. The experimental group will receive the multimedia information intervention once per week for 6 consecutive weeks, while the control group will receive routine care. The follow-up data collections will be completed at 8 and 12 weeks after the pretest. For quantitative measurement, the main variables will be social support, self-efficacy, quality of life, positive thinking, and satisfaction with program. Generalized Estimating Equations (GEEs) will be used to o analyze data.
