e23144 Background: Music therapy is not easy to carry out. After carrying out music therapy propaganda, many patients still question the efficacy of it, and won’t be included in music therapy group. This study retrospectively analyzed the related factors and survival analysis of patients enrolled in music therapy, and provided reference for appropriate music therapy propaganda methods. Methods: From March 2014 to January 2016, 258 patients with malignant tumors diagnosed in Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University were collected. Music therapy was divided into control group and intervention group according to whether they were willing to be included in the group or not. Questionnaire survey was used to investigate the effect of factors on music therapy in the two groups. Follow-up was conducted by telephone to analyze the effect of music therapy on PFS. Single factor analysis was used to analyze the relationship between factors and music therapy. The differences of PFS between control group and intervention group was analyzed by Log-Rank test (P < 0.05). Results: A total of 258 patients were enrolled in the questionnaire survey, and 240 patients completed the questionnaire effectively. Age, education level, music hobby, and knowledge of illness had significant influence on whether the patients were enrolled in music therapy group (P < 0.05). Gender, occupation, type of disease, stage of disease and DT score had no significant effect on whether patients were enrolled in music therapy group (P > 0.05). Age and music preference were independent influencing factors of music therapy (P = 0.025, P = 0.000). The median PFS of lung cancer patients was 8 months and 8 months, respectively (P = 0.760). The median PFS of breast cancer patients was 9 months and 8 months, respectively (P = 0.726). The median PFS of digestive tract cancer patients was 8 months and 10 months, respectively (P = 0.684). The median PFS of gynecologic tumor patients was 8 months and 8 months, respectively (P = 0.310). Conclusions: Age, education level, music hobby and condition information have significant influence on whether patients are included in music therapy group or not. Age and music hobby are independent influencing factors of music therapy. PFS of patients with malignant tumors who are willing to be included in music therapy group tends to prolong, but there is no statistical significance.

Anxiety Levels

Background: Surgery is one of medical interventions which can cause fear, anxiety, and stressed because of its effects toward the integrity of body and soul. Nurses have significant roles in any preoperative care which is helping patients to decrease preoperative anxiety by using complementary therapy. The use of music therapy as one of the complementary therapies is not common in Indonesia. Therefore, scientific studies to prove the role of this therapy to decrease the level of anxiety of pre-operative patients is needed. Objective: To investigate the effects of music therapy in reducing anxiety levels of preoperative patients. Methods: A quasy experimental study with pre-test and post-test design with control group was applied to 50 respondents from medical ward in Panembahan Senopati Hospital of Yogyakarta who met the inclusion criteria.Dara were then analyzed by using t-test statistical analysis. Results: The control group showed the increased value of anxiety level of0.8 without music intervention (t= - 1503, df = 24, p<.05), whereas the intervention group showed the decreased value of anxiety level of -5.52 (t=5.081, df=24, p<.05). Meanwhile the independent t-test results for both groups showed a significant difference between group (t= 3,373, df=48, p<.05). Conclusion: Music therapy has significant effect in reducing preoperative anxiety levels of patients. Keywords: anxiety, preoperative, music therapy

​BackgroundCognitive–behavioural therapy (CBT) is effective in chronic fatigue syndrome. However, CBT has not been investigated in postinfectious chronic fatigue (CF), nor is it known whether addition of therapeutic elements from other disciplines might be feasible. We studied the feasibility of a combined CBT and music therapy intervention for CF following Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection in adolescents.​MethodsAdolescents (12–20 years old) participating in a postinfectious cohort study who developed CF 6 months after an acute EBV infection were eligible for the present feasibility study. A combined CBT and music therapy programme (10 therapy sessions and related homework) was compared with care as usual in a randomised controlled design. Therapists and participants were blinded to outcome evaluation. Endpoints included physical activity (steps/day), symptom scores, recovery rate and possible harmful effects, but the study was underpowered regarding efficacy. Total follow-up time was 15 months.​ResultsA total of 43 individuals with postinfectious CF were included (21 intervention group, 22 control group). Seven individuals left the study during the first 3 months, leaving 15 in the intervention group and 21 in the control group at 3 months’ follow-up. No harmful effects were recorded, and compliance with appointment was high. In intention-to-treat analyses, number of steps/day tended to decrease (difference=−1158, 95% CI −2642 to 325), whereas postexertional malaise tended to improve (difference=−0.4, 95% CI −0.9 to 0.1) in the intervention group at 3 months. At 15 months’ follow-up, there was a trend towards higher recovery rate in the intervention group (62% vs 37%).​ConclusionAn intervention study of combined CBT and music therapy in postinfectious CF is feasible, and appears acceptable to the participants. The tendencies towards positive effects on patients’ symptoms and recovery might justify a full-scale clinical trial.​Trial registration numberNCT02499302.

Summary Dysphagia after esophagectomy is the main cause of a prolonged postoperative stay. The present study investigated the effects of a swallowing intervention led by a speech–language–hearing therapist (SLHT) on postoperative dysphagia. We enrolled 276 consecutive esophageal cancer patients who underwent esophagectomy and cervical esophagogastric anastomosis between July 2015 and December 2018; 109 received standard care (control group) and 167 were treated by a swallowing intervention (intervention group). In the intervention group, swallowing function screening and rehabilitation based on each patient’s dysfunction were led by SLHT. The start of oral intake, length of oral intake rehabilitation, and length of the postoperative stay were compared in the two groups. The patient’s subgroups in the 276 patients were examined to clarify the more effectiveness of the intervention. The start of oral intake was significantly earlier in the intervention group (POD: 11 vs. 8 days; P = 0.009). In the subgroup analysis, the length of the postoperative stay was also significantly shortened by the swallowing intervention in patients without complications (POD: 18 vs. 14 days; P = 0.001) and with recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis (RLNP) (POD: 30 vs. 21.5 days; P = 0.003). A multivariate regression analysis identified the swallowing intervention as a significant independent factor for the earlier start of oral intake and a shorter postoperative stay in patients without complications and with RLNP. Our proposed swallowing intervention is beneficial for the earlier start of oral intake and discharge after esophagectomy, particularly in patients without complications and with RLNP. This program may contribute to enhanced recovery after surgery.

e20565 Background: Patients with advanced cancer who are hospitalized have high symptom burden and a short life expectancy, which may warrant PCC. Methods: Using sequential cohorts, we prospectively assessed implementation of automatic PCC for hospitalized cancer patients. The primary outcome was hospice utilization. Secondary outcomes included evaluation of changes in quality of life (FACIT-PAL), symptoms (ESAS), satisfaction (FAMCARE), and anxiety and depression (HADS). Surveys were administered at baseline, 2 weeks and 3 months post-hospitalization. Chart abstraction was utilized to assess demographics, resource use, and survival information. Results: Patients were evaluated consecutively (65 in the control group, 70 in the intervention). At admission, 91% reported uncontrolled symptoms: 52% pain; 15% dyspnea. 60% of intervention patients received PCC during their first admission. 54 patients completed surveys (29 control group, 25 PCC group), 64 patients declined or were unable to complete surveys, 16 patients were excluded due to language barriers, physician preference, or not receiving surveys. Using an intent-to-treat analysis, there was no difference between patients in the control and the intervention group in FACIT-PAL (119 ± 29 vs 123 ± 30, p = 0.68 ), ESAS (28 ± 14 vs 26 ± 15, p = 0.74) HADS (13 ± 6.6 vs. 12.± 4.7, p = 0.58), or FAMCARE (58 ± 9.1 vs 59 ± 8.6, p = 0.61). In both groups, patients had modest worsening of symptoms and quality of life over the course of the study. Survival and Health Services data analysis, including hospice referral, is proceeding. Conclusions: Automatic PPC had little impact on patient-reported symptoms and quality of life. Limitations included: small patient population; high rate of incomplete surveys, likely due to illness burden; penetration of the PCC was limited to 60% by patient or provider preference and consultant availability. Our primary outcome analysis (hospice utilization) is forthcoming, as are data on survival and Health Services outcomes.

Cancer Related Fatigue

e21658 Background: Weight gain, deterioration of physical fitness, and cancer-related fatigue often occur in the breast cancer patients mainly due to endocrine therapy. A number of previous studies have reported that obesity increases the risk of breast cancer recurrence and death, while exercise habituation improves physical fitness and fatigue among breast cancer patients. However, almost all studies have been conducted in the Western community and there are few studies focused on Asian women who may have lower BMI compared with the Western ones. Therefore, we investigated whether a combined diet plus exercise program affects weight loss, physical fitness and fatigue indices among Japanese breast cancer patients undergoing endocrine therapies. Methods: Thirty-two Japanese women with breast cancer undergoing endocrine therapy (age; 50±6 years, body weight; 57±10 kg) were voluntarily assigned to either intervention group (n = 21) or control group (n = 11). The intervention group completed a 12-week combined diet plus exercise program, consisting of weekly diet instruction classes aimed at maintaining a nutritionally well-balanced 1,200 kcal/d diet and a weekly 90-min exercise session. Anthropometric indices, physical fitness, blood sample and cancer-related fatigue were measured at baseline and after the 12-week program. Results: All of the 21 women completed the 12-week program. Mean weight loss was 8.7% of the initial weight in the intervention group and 0.1% in the control group ( P < . 001). Significant improvements were observed in cardiorespiratory fitness ( P < .01), flexibility ( P < .01) and agility ( P < .01) in the intervention group. Cancer related-fatigue scores decreased by 7.9 points (39%) among the intervention group ( P < .001), while it remained essentially unchanged among the control group. No adverse events were reported in the intervention group. Conclusions: A combined diet plus exercise program may contribute to a decrease in body weight and improvement in physical fitness and cancer-related fatigue. Further study is needed to help reduce side effects due to endocrine therapy and enhance quality of life among Asian breast cancer patients. Clinical trial information: UMIN000025890.

e24021 Background: The Geriatric 8 (G8) is a simplified screening tool to select the appropriate elderly patients for chemotherapy. Vulnerable patients with impaired G8 score might need additional comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) with intervention for individual problem. However, the impact of CGA and therapeutic intervention on rate of complete chemotherapy among these patients is rarely addressed. This study aims to evaluate the benefit of CGA guided intervention. Methods: A single center, randomized, open-label study which included newly diagnosed elderly cancer patients (age ≥ 65) with impaired G8 score (≤ 14) who were designated for chemotherapy. After the enrollment, patients were randomized to 1:1 ratio to receive CGA guided intervention (intervention group) or usual care (control group). The primary end point was the rate of complete chemotherapy at 90-day. Associated factors for complete chemotherapy were evaluated. Results: Between June 2019 and December 2019, 52 patients were randomized (26 patients for intervention group and 26 patients for control group). Mean age was 72 years, 59.6% was female, 40.4% had breast cancer and 51.9% had early stage cancer. With G8 assessment, 55.8% had intermediate (score 11-14) and 44.2% had low (score < 11) impaired G8 score. All baseline characteristics were balanced. Using per protocol analysis, there was no significant difference in rate of complete chemotherapy between groups (61.9% vs 50%, OR 1.63; 95%Cl 0.51-5.23; p = 0.42). Considering subgroup analysis in the intermediate G8 score patients, the intervention group had a significant higher rate of complete chemotherapy than control group (81.8% vs 66.7%, OR 2.71; p = 0.02), but no significant difference in low G8 score group (40% vs 27.3%, OR 1.78; p = 0.58). In univariate analysis, age below 75 years, BMI > 20 kg/m2 and intermediate G8 score showed significant factors for improving rate of complete chemotherapy. Conclusions: This is the first study in south-east Asia using CGA and intervention to improve rate of completion in chemotherapy. Although the CGA and intervention had no significant difference but had tendency to be better in completion rate of chemotherapy than usual care. The intermediate-impaired G8 score subgroup is more likely to benefit from CGA guided intervention for complete chemotherapy as planned.

Purpose This study examines the impact of yoga, including physical poses, breathing, and meditation exercises, on quality of life (QOL), fatigue, distressed mood, and spiritual well-being among a multiethnic sample of breast cancer patients. Patients and Methods One hundred twenty-eight patients (42% African American, 31% Hispanic) recruited from an urban cancer center were randomly assigned (2:1 ratio) to a 12-week yoga intervention (n = 84) or a 12-week waitlist control group (n = 44). Changes in QOL (eg, Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy) from before random assignment (T1) to the 3-month follow-up (T3) were examined; predictors of adherence were also assessed. Nearly half of all patients were receiving medical treatment. Results Regression analyses indicated that the control group had a greater decrease in social well-being compared with the intervention group after controlling for baseline social well-being and covariates (P < .0001). Secondary analyses of 71 patients not receiving chemotherapy during the intervention period indicated favorable outcomes for the intervention group compared with the control group in overall QOL (P < .008), emotional well-being (P < .015), social well-being (P < .004), spiritual well-being (P < .009), and distressed mood (P < .031). Sixty-nine percent of intervention participants attended classes (mean number of classes attended by active class participants = 7.00 ± 3.80), with lower adherence associated with increased fatigue (P < .001), radiotherapy (P < .0001), younger age (P < .008), and no antiestrogen therapy (P < .02). Conclusion Despite limited adherence, this intent-to-treat analysis suggests that yoga is associated with beneficial effects on social functioning among a medically diverse sample of breast cancer survivors. Among patients not receiving chemotherapy, yoga appears to enhance emotional well-being and mood and may serve to buffer deterioration in both overall and specific domains of QOL.
