Brief Summary
|
The approval from the institute research committee and the
institute ethics committees has been obtained and currently registering the research with Clinical Trial Registry
of India (CTRI). The identification of the participants and data collection
process will begin from the Shirdi Sai cancer hospital, Manipal. The women and
their partners will be contacted on the outpatient basis, through consecutive
sampling, at the study setting. The informed consent will be given along with
the participant information sheet for their perusal and after explaining about
the research and its objectives, the three scales will be given to them. If the
partners are not present at the hospital, the scales will be sent to them
online to collect the data from them. Immediate telephonic feedback will be
taken from the participants, after completing the scales. |
