Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Aim: To evaluate the effect of psycho-educational program and relaxation training on resilience, self-esteem, and psychological distress among women with breast cancer. Design: Randomized controlled trials used a pretest and posttest design to determine the effect of psychoeducational program and relaxation training on resilience, self-esteem, and psychological distress among women with breast cancer presenting to breast clinics in Assiut, Egypt. The women were randomly allocated to the intervention group and control group. Method: Data collection took place at the outpatient clinic at the Assiut University in South Egypt Cancer Institute. The study involved a total of 100 participants diagnosed with breast cancer recruited using a purposive sampling method, who were categorized into two groups, each comprising 50 women. Group 1 received a psychoeducational program and relaxation training, while Group 2 received only routine care without the psychoeducational program. Inclusion criteria were age ranging from 20 to 60 years, consent to research participation, and nonmetastatic breast cancer diagnosis. The investigators excluded failing to engage regularly in the psychoeducational program, suffering from a significant illness other than breast cancer, having a history of persistent psychological illnesses, and using psychiatric medications.
