Brief Summary:
This is a study protocol to determine whether it is feasible to support parents of children with blood cancers by providing information over an online learning platform. This study will be conducted in Malaysia. An online learning platform will be used to provide information relevant to parents who care for children diagnosed with leukemia or lymphoma. The use of this platform will be compared with current usual care, where only verbal discussions and ad hoc caregiver training is provided to support these parents, based on the clinician's judgement. Participants knowledge and confidence level in caregiving as well as coping will be compared between the two groups. To determine the feasibility of this method of information support, the researchers will also obtain feedback from participants who used the online learning platform and determine whether there are many who drop out from using it. The findings will determine whether use of online learning platform is suitable to deliver information support for parents, in view of currently limited resources for supportive care in childhood cancer care in Malaysia.
Detailed Description:
This is the study protocol for a multi-centre interventional open-label randomized controlled feasibility trial to evaluate the feasibility of delivering informational support via an online learning platform to Malaysian parents of children with leukemia or lymphoma. The study will be conducted in two pediatric oncology centres in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Study participants will include adult parents of children who were diagnosed with leukemia or lymphoma in the preceding 3. Block randomization will be used to allocate participants into the intervention or a waitlist-control arm. The intervention group will receive access to e-Hematological Oncology Parent Education (eHOPE), which provides information support for parents in the local Malay language, via an online learning platform. They will also receive usual care, which includes verbal explanations and caregiver education in the course of their child's treatment process. Parents will be able to access multimedia information designed to support them in the care of their sick child, and will need to complete 4 self-paced activities over a period of 8 weeks. The waitlist-control group will receive usual care, and at the end of 8 weeks, will also receive access to eHOPE. The primary outcome of this trial will be the change in caregiving knowledge, whereas secondary outcomes include caregiving self-efficacy and coping self-efficacy. Descriptive data on feasibility will include duration of recruitment to achieve targeted sample size, the drop-out rate of participants and identified barriers to implementation.
