Effect of Triple Pre-rehabilitation on Radiotherapy for Head and Neck Cancer Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
To evaluate the intervention effect of triple pre-rehabilitation on head and neck cancer patients with radiotherapy, and process evaluation to further optimize the intervention program.
The pre-rehabilitation intervention was develped previously based on the process of evidence-based-nursing, including interventions of nurtrtion, exercise, and psychology.

Experimental: Pre Group intervention before and during radiotherapy |
Other: triple pre-rehabilitation
The triple intervention consisted of exercise, nutrition and psychology. Based on the intervention framework, face-to-face intervention adjustment and intensive intervention measures were carried out from the time of enrollment (T0). Combined with weekly telephone follow-up during the intervention, the intervention content formulated face-to-face last time was reviewed, reinforcement behaviors were performed, and questions were answered during the intervention.
Other: triple rehabilitation
The triple intervention consisted of exercise, nutrition and psychology. Based on the intervention framework, face-to-face intervention adjustment and intensive intervention measures were carried out at the time of the beginning of radiotherapy (T1), and the middle stage of radiotherapy (T2). Combined with weekly telephone follow-up during the intervention, the intervention content formulated face-to-face last time was reviewed, reinforcement behaviors were performed, and questions were answered during the intervention.
