Aim:
The aim of this study was to examine the effects of a mobile web-based self-management program on menopausal symptoms, self-efficacy and quality of life in breast cancer patients with chemotherapy-induced amenorrhoea.
Design:
A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design with repeated measures.
Methods:
The study was carried out at a university medical centre between October 2017 and September 2018. The intervention group received a 12-week mobile web-based self-management program including education and coaching/support. Multiple instruments were used to measure menopausal symptoms, self-efficacy, and quality of life at pre-test, after the intervention (post-test), and 3 months post-intervention (follow-up test). Repeated measure ANOVA was used to analyse the data.
Results:
In the intervention group, menopausal symptoms were significantly improved compared to the control group at the follow-up test. In the follow-up test, the intervention group's self-efficacy and quality of life were significantly improved, whereas that of the control group was decreased.
