Knowledge expectations of patients with cancer during the illness trajectory

The goal of this study was to develop a model for empowering patient education praxis for adult cancer patients during their illness trajectory. The model had two parts: a self-report instrument for identifying and communicating cancer patients’ knowledge expectations during illness trajectory; and an inter-professional screening instrument for cancer patients’ education process (patients’ cognitive resources, knowledge expectations, comprehension outcomes during illness trajectory).
This study combines several datasets from both cancer patients’ and health care professionals’ points of view.

Quality of radiotherapy care by the development of e-feedback knowledge

Principal investigator: Mervi Siekkinen, PhD, RT
mervi.siekkinen(a)utu.fi

The aim of this three-phase study was to develop the quality of radiotherapy care by the e-Feedback knowledge of radiotherapy -intervention (e-Re-Know). In Phase I, the purpose was to describe the quality of radiotherapy care and its deficits experienced by cancer patients. Based on the deficits in patient education in Phase II, the purpose was to describe cancer patients’ e-knowledge expectations in radiotherapy. In Phase III, the purpose was to develop and evaluate the outcomes of the e-Re-Know among breast cancer patients. The ultimate aim was to develop radiotherapy care to support patients’ empowerment with patient e-education.

Development of interactive pathway of patients with breast cancer

Principal investigator: Anne Ryhänen, PhD

The ultimate goal of this study was to evaluate the effect of the Breast Cancer Patient’s
Pathway program (BCPP) on the breast cancer patient’s empowerment by using the patient pathway as a patient education tool. In phase I, a systematic literature review was carried out to chart the solutions and outcomes of Internet-based educational programs for breast cancer patients. In phase II, a Delphi study was conducted to evaluate the usability of web pages and the adequacy of their content. In phase III, the BCPP program was piloted with 10 patients, and patients were randomized to an intervention group (n=50) and a control group (n=48).

Research teams

The focus of the “Empowering Surgical Orthopaedic Patients through Education” project is on the education of osteoarthritis patients in the surgical context and it includes collaboration between researchers in health care and nursing science in seven European countries (Finland, Cyprus, Greece, Iceland, Lithuania, Spain and Sweden). This project aims to a) strengthen the theoretical basis of empowering patient education, b) identify and explain the differences between patient education in various countries, b) construct practice-oriented patient education models including those factors promoting best practices for orthopaedic patients in the surgical context and c) test and validate instruments used in evaluating patient education.

In this project, the theoretical basis lies in empowering patient education that emphasizes the power of patients and their self-management as a goal of patient education. In empowering patient education, it is essential to be aware of patients’ knowledge expectations and to measure the knowledge received. The basic assumption is that the closer patients’ expectations and received knowledge are, the more empowered they will be, and thus possibilities for self-management are created.

In the orthopaedic surgical context, knowledge of patients’ expectations and received care has been studied on the national level. “Empowering Surgical Orthopaedic Patients through Education” – the project is a step toward an international perspective on orthopaedic patient education. This project has already been started by a) making the research plan and establishing the international research team, b) preparing, testing and validating the instruments and c) planning the sample and data collection. Empirical data has been collected in seven participating countries. The data (N=1634) has been collected in all countries among surgical orthopaedic patients (n=172-279/country) and their significant others (n=1097) in connection with knee or hip replacement. Data collection points have been at admission, at discharge and 6-7 months after surgery. Nurses (n=317), caring for these patients, have also evaluated the quality of the education received by these patients. At this point, the data is under reporting.

The ultimate goal of these international analyses and comparisons is to construct the best educational practices internationally for supporting patients’ self-management in the orthopaedic surgical context.

This project has scientific, societal, clinical and educational outcomes.

Empowering patient education in an ambulatory orthopaedic nursing internet-based intervention

Principal investigator: Katja Heikkinen, PhD

The aim of this study was to create and evaluate an Internet-based patient education programme aiming to cognitively empower ambulatory orthopaedic surgery patients. The research process was divided into two phases. In Phase I, the purpose was to create the content for cognitively empowering Internet-based patient education for ambulatory orthopaedic surgery patient care. In Phase II, the purposes were: to evaluate cognitively empowering Internet-based patient education (experiment group) user acceptance and the outcomes of this education and to compare the outcomes of cognitively empowering Internet-based patient education to the outcomes of cognitively empowering face-to-face education (control group). The ultimate goal of this study was to create a new type of cognitively empowering patient education intervention which offers an individualized and engaging method that is free of time and place for patients having ambulatory orthopaedic surgery operations.

Adolescents are the future adults and their mental health is important for promoting community health and healthy societies. In order to meet the adolescents’ needs and develop mental health promotion programmes, adolescents must be heard. Empowerment is a key tool and a core concept for mental health promotion programmes.

The aim of the study is to assess the adolescents’ mental health needs, determine the factors that are connected with those needs and further, identify the resources they use in order to address those needs. The ultimate goal is to assist health professionals to promote mental health among adolescents in different European countries. Thus, the study will provide a framework to gain a better understanding of the mental health needs among adolescents. The findings of this study will have a scientific as well as societal impact on community health for adolescents.

The results from this study will be used to develop a model for mental health promotion among adolescents within the community including school-based intervention strategies which can be used by health professionals, policymakers and stakeholders. This model will focus on the factors related to mental health needs and more importantly on the resources the adolescents depend on to address their own mental health needs as well as activities and actions for supporting/improving their mental health.

The study is taking place in Finland and Greece, enabling cross-cultural comparisons. The Greek collaborating organisation is the Department of Public and Community Health at the University of West Attica (Athens, Greece), where the post-doctoral researcher is an Assistant Professor.

The research team has conducted a systematic literature review which is published here. Data has been collected in Finland among secondary school pupils and in Greece among adolescent service users, while it is planned to conduct the study in the general population too. The study has resulted in the validation of the Youth Efficacy / Empowerment Scale-Mental Health (YES-MH) scale in both Finnish and Greek.
