The Effect of Educational Intervention Based on the Pender’s Health Promotion Model on Fatigue of Patients after Chemotherapy: An Interventional Study

, Mokhtar Mahmoudi ^*

Abstract: (133 Views)

Background and Objective: Cancer is a chronic and debilitating disease and one of the prevalent side effects of cancer treatment is fatigue. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of education base on Pender's health promtion model on the level of fatigue and lifestyle of cancer patients.

Materials and Methods: The present study is an experimental before-and-after study with a control group. This interventional study involved 78 cancer patients selected through convenience sampling in 2023 and then randomly allocated to intervention and control groups using block randomization. All participants in both groups completed demographic information forms, the Cancer Fatigue Scale to assess demographic characteristics and fatigue levels before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using independent and paired t-tests, and non-parametric tests including the Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon tests. All analyses were conducted using SPSS20 (p=0.05).

Results: The intervention and control groups were homogeneous in terms of demographic indices and fatigue level before the intervention (P<0.1). After the intervention, the results indicated an improvement in all dimensions and a reduction in fatigue levels in the intervention group compared to the control group (P<0.05).

Conclusion: Education based on Pender's health promotion model has a significant effect on reducing the fatigue of patients undergoing chemotherapy and can help to improve physical and mental conditions and increase the quality of life of these patients along with drug treatments.
