Guided Imagery
Routine Postoperative Care
Arm Description
Guided Imagery With Audio Media
Subjects will receive routine pre-operative, intra-operative, post-operative, chemotherapy, and radiation care as dictated by pathologic diagnosis.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Level of distress in the immediate postoperative period, measured by the numeric rating scale/ National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Distress Thermometer screening instrument.
Level of distress in the delayed postoperative period, measured by the numeric rating scale/ National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Distress Thermometer screening instrument.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Level of distress, measured by questionnaire using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-total (HADS-T).
Level of anxiety and depressions, measured by questionnaire using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale subscale for anxiety (HADS-A) and depression (HADS-D).
Level of pain, measured by a 7-item questionnaire using a Likert numerical rating scale for pain
Perioperative analgesic use, measured by patient-completed usage log and hospital medical record.
Patient satisfaction regarding in hospital perioperative care, measured by a questionnaire adapted from the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey.
Effect of perioperative guided imagery on health care compliance, measured by the General Adherence Scale (GAS) survey.
Effect of perioperative guided imagery on health care related locus of control, measured by the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control-form A (MHLC-A) questionnaire.
The effect of perioperative guided imagery on hope, measured by the Adult Hope Scale (AHS) questionnaire.
