Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nurse-physician collaboration on the incidence of complications, anxiety and depression, quality of life, and satisfaction with nursing care among cervical cancer patients undergoing three-dimensional intracavitary brachytherapy. In this randomized, single-blinded, placebo-controlled trial, 92 eligible cervical cancer patients were equally divided into two groups upon admission. The control group was given routine nursing, and the intervention group received a nurse-physician collaboration in addition to routine care. Anxiety, depression, and health-related quality of life in both groups were assessed and compared at baseline and discharge. The intervention group had significantly fewer complications and showed marked improvements in mental health and quality of life compared to the control group. Satisfaction with nursing care was substantially greater in the intervention group. These results support the clinical adoption of a nurse-physician collaborative care model in the management of cervical cancer with three-dimensional intracavitary brachytherapy.

The Journal of Interprofessional Care disseminates research and new developments in the field of interprofessional education and practice. We welcome contributions containing an explicit interprofessional focus, and involving a range of settings, professions, and fields. Areas of practice covered include primary, community and hospital care, health education and public health, and beyond health and social care into fields such as criminal justice and primary/elementary education. Papers introducing additional interprofessional views, for example, from a community development or environmental design perspective, are welcome.
