Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This randomized phase III trial studies how well a multimedia self-management intervention works in preparing family caregivers and patients with stage I-III lung cancer for lung cancer surgery. The multimedia self-management intervention, Preparing for your Lung Cancer Surgery, is a nurse-led, caregiver-based, multimedia intervention that may improve patient recovery after surgery, lower caregiving burden, and improve distress and quality of life.
