Abstract

Background: The objective of this study is to obtain insight into distress in spouses and patients treated for head and neck cancer. Methods: Forty‐one patient–spouse pairs completed the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Inclusion criteria included curative treatment for head and neck cancer. Exclusion criteria were visiting the clinic without a spouse, bad news at the routine follow‐up examination, diseases causing cognitive dysfunction, and poor understanding of the Dutch language. Next to the HADS, the assessment protocol included age, gender, health status, coping strategy, time since cancer treatment, tumor stage and site, treatment modality, functional and social impairment, and caregiving burden. Results: A clinical level of distress was noted in 20% of the spouses and in 27% of the patients. Distress in spouses was related to the presence of a feeding tube in patients, a passive coping style, less vitality, and a disrupted daily life schedule resulting from caregiving. Distress in patients was related to the presence of a feeding tube, speech and swallowing problems, less social contacts, a passive style of coping, and nonexpression of emotions. Conclusion: Distress is often present in spouses and patients treated for head and neck cancer. Routine screening for psychologic distress is recommended.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
