Empathic Communication Skills (ECS) Training
NCT05456841
This study is recruiting at 8 US sites in 6 states, according to its ClinicalTrials.gov record last updated .
Summary
Research indicates that perceived stigma within medical encounters is prevalent and problematic for lung cancer patients' well-being and quality of cancer care. Promoting empathic communication appears to be a potentially effective intervention target to help reduce patients' perceptions of stigma within clinical encounters; however, no formal trainings exist that focus on teaching empathic communication to oncology care providers (OCPs).
