Effect of cognitive behavior therapy based on the health education pathway on psychology of papillary thyroid carcinoma patients: a randomized controlled trial.
Nuclear Medicine Communications 2024 January 23
OBJECTIVES: Our main aim was to explore whether cognitive behavior therapy based on the health education pathway (CBT-HEP) can effectively alleviate the distress, anxiety, and depression of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients after 131I treatment. In addition, we investigated the critical factors that can significantly affect the distress and quality of life in PTC patients before 131I treatment.
METHODS: In total, 496 people were screened and 357 were enrolled, followed by randomization of those with a distress thermometer (DT) ≥4. Patients in the experimental group received CBT-HEP intervention, and patients in the control group were given casual conversation.
RESULTS: The scores of DT, Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) in CBT-HEP group decreased gradually after intervention. In control group, DT scores decreased significantly, while HAMA and PHQ-9 scores did not change significantly.
CONCLUSION: CBT-HEP is effective in relieving distress, anxiety and depression in PTC patients. In addition, female sex, lifestyle, hypothyroidism, negative emotions, related symptoms, fear of tumor recurrence and radiation safety are the critical factors affecting mental health and quality of life.
