Официальное название

Effects of Creative Arts Therapy on Body Image, Self-esteem, Anxiety and Depression in Men With Prostate Cancer After Active Treatment: A Feasibility Randomised Controlled Trial

Обзор

The goal of this clinical study is to assess the feasibility of implementing a creative arts therapy intervention of drawing and painting in Hong Kong prostate cancer patients and preliminarily examine the effects of this intervention on prostate cancer patients' health outcomes via a two-armed randomized controlled trial. The two arms will be (i) the creative arts therapy intervention group and (ii) a active control group. Participants will join five sessions. Sessions will start with a 10-15-minute rapport-building discussion and continue with a 60-minute intervention. Session themes are as follows: 'bridge drawing', 'analogue drawing', 'life-sized body outline', a 'free session' to allow patients to express their feelings, and a final review with the art therapist in which all sessions will be brought to a conclusion. Each session will follow a three-step process of psychodynamic model to ensure the optimal effect of the intervention. The interventions will be held at private room at hospital.
