University of Oxford research study:

Living with Prostate Cancer on Active Surveillance - How Uncertainty Affects Worry and Coping 

 

Researchers at the University of Oxford are inviting those currently on Active Surveillance for prostate cancer to take part in a study exploring how individuals manage feelings of worry and uncertainty about their health.

The aim of the research is to improve understanding of psychological wellbeing during Active Surveillance and to help develop more tailored support and interventions in the future.

Participation involves completing a confidential, one-off online survey that takes approximately 20 minutes. Participation is anonymous, voluntary and participants may skip questions or withdraw at any time.

This study has received favourable opinion from a subcommittee of the University of Oxford Central University Research Ethics Committee (CUREC), ethics reference: 1910836.

It is directed at those currently on active surveillance surveillance

 It a pity those who've been on AS but now finished can't participate.

Hi Adrian, 

That's a great point. I'll pass this feedback to the researchers to see if they can include people who are currently on or have been on Active Surveillance. The more insight the better for sure!

Many thanks,
