Key result
An educational intervention based on the common-sense model of self-regulation significantly improved lung function exercise compliance compared to usual care (median score 44 vs 29, p < 0.001) in lung cancer patients following thoracoscopic surgery.
Why the study?
The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of an educational intervention based on the common-sense model of self-regulation for lung cancer patients after thoracoscopic surgery.
Does an educational intervention based on the common-sense model of self-regulation improve pulmonary exercise compliance, frailty, and illness perception in lung cancer patients after thoracoscopic surgery?
Does an educational intervention based on the common-sense model of self-regulation improve pulmonary exercise compliance, frailty, and illness perception in lung cancer patients after thoracoscopic surgery?
An educational intervention based on the common-sense model of self-regulation significantly improves pulmonary exercise compliance and illness perception, but not frailty, in lung cancer patients recovering from thoracoscopic surgery.

This study constructed an educational intervention based on the common-sense model of self-regulation for lung cancer patients after thoracoscopic surgery and evaluated the effects of the educational intervention. From July 2023 to January 2024, ninety patients with lung cancer after initial thoracoscopic surgery were divided into an intervention group (N = 45) and a control group (N = 45). Patients in the intervention group received a nursing intervention based on the common-sense model of self-regulation. Patients in the control group received usual care. The intervention group received face-to-face and telephone counselling for 4 weeks, and they had a manual. Pulmonary exercise compliance, frailty, and illness perception were assessed before and after the intervention. After the implementation of the nursing intervention based on the common-sense model of self-regulation, there were statistically significant differences in lung function exercise compliance scores and illness perception scores between the intervention group and the control group, but there was no statistically significant difference in frailty scores between the two groups after the intervention. This educational intervention is effective for the rehabilitation behaviour of lung cancer patients following thoracoscopic surgery.

Gu et al. (2025) studied Lung cancer after thoracoscopic surgery (n=90). Educational intervention based on the common-sense model of self-regulation vs. Usual care was evaluated on Lung function exercise compliance score (p=<0.001). An educational intervention based on the common-sense model of self-regulation significantly improved lung function exercise compliance compared to usual care (median score 44 vs 29, p < 0.001) in lung cancer patients following thoracoscopic surgery.
