Details |
| Intervention |
A video-based education program for managing post-radiotherapy side effects. |
An educational video of 9 minutes will encompass various factors, such as self-management techniques, low-intensity exercise programs, and nutritional management for managing common post-radiotherapy side effects like fatigue, weight loss, dysphagia, xerostomia, nausea and vomiting, oral mucositis, and radiation dermatitis.
The video will be provided to the patients for guidance and adherence to the management strategies. A compliance sheet would be maintained to ensure adherence to the intervention. A follow-up assessment of side effects would be done at the end of the first week, the fourth week, and the sixth week after receiving the first radiotherapy. |
| Comparator Agent |
Standard treatment for radiotherapy-induced side effects prescribed by the oncology department will be continued throughout the duration of the study. |
Participants in the control group will receive the routine standard treatment for the management of radiotherapy-induced side effects as prescribed by the oncology department. |

Brief Summary
|
Aim of the study This study aims to assess the effectiveness of of video-based educational programs on post-radiotherapy side effects and to determine its association with selected socio-demographic and clinical variables. Objectives 1) To assess and compare the effectiveness of a video-based education program on selected post-radiotherapy side effects among patients with head and neck cancer receiving radiotherapy. 2) To determine the association of selected post-radiotherapy side effects with selected socio-demographic and clinical variables. Hypotheses H01- There will be no significant difference in the post-radiotherapy side effects in experimental and control groups after the administration of video-based education. H02- There will be no significant association of post-radiotherapy side effects and patients with head and neck cancers with selected sociodemographic variables. |
