The Effect of Child-centered Empowerment on Lifestyle of Leukemia Patients

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 Sept 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This randomized clinical trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a child-centered empowerment model in improving the lifestyle of children with leukemia. The study focused on whether structured empowerment interventions could significantly enhance daily habits and overall well-being in pediatric oncology patients. The main research questions were: Does the child-centered empowerment model improve the lifestyle of children with leukemia? Can this complementary and non-invasive method be considered a viable approach for supporting pediatric care? Participants (N = 46) aged 7-13 years were randomly assigned to either the intervention group, which received empowerment training in four dimensions (perceived threat, self-efficacy, educational participation, and evaluation), or the control group, which received routine care. Pre- and post-intervention assessments were conducted using a validated lifestyle questionnaire measuring nutrition, sleep, physical activity, physical health, and stress.
