    • introduction<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      include multiple in-text citations and references, including the prevalence of prostate cancer in black and ethnic minorities, as well as the disparities they face. please back this up with citations. please make this specific to prostate cancer patients who have had radiotherapy as their treatment. and how disparities effect radiotherapy treatment for example- set up issues arising as tattoo markers used in radiotherapy are harder to see on patients with darker skin colour.<\/div>\n

      • rationale<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        \n

        There is quite a lot of literature surrounding the experience of prostate cancer for the BAME community, specifically how it effects their psychological, social , physical, and spiritual needs. Proposing research for this matter can help to better patient experience by identifying core issues and implement changes to services and support available as well as signposting patients to the best possible care available. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

        • aims and research objectives\/questions<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
          \n

          The aim is to create a research proposal which would look to identify any disparities in patient experience for the BAME Community members <\/span>in cancer management decision making, pre treatment information and support.<\/span>, the demographic of prostate cancer will be considered, this may mean a lot of the patients are first generation immigrants with more cultural exposure to those of a younger age BAME patient. The questions could include\/cover<\/span><\/p>\n

           <\/span><\/p>\n

           <\/span><\/p>\n

           <\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Cultural differences- how does this effect the treatment and patient choices? does their way of life, traditions and roles affect their ability to receive adequate support during treatment or vice versa? does a patients religious\/cultural views effect the choice of treatment (e.g) <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Explore the impact of ethnicity and culture on prostate cancer management decision making.<\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Determine if BAME patients have differing psychological, physical, social, and spiritual needs.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Identify any disparities in information and support efficacy for BAME patients pre treatment (? trying to narrow the field to decision making about management overall and then info about surgery, chemo,& Radiotherapy T but not trying to cover on treatment)<\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Identify barriers and enablers to effective patient information and support to inform practice.<\/span><\/p>\n

           <\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>language barriers- is the patient receiving optimum support to overcome language barriers, can they freely express themselves and their concerns? Can they communicate with staff during treatment and understand what is required of them? <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

           <\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>skin tattoos placed during treatment, does skin colour effect the accuracy of patient positionin  <\/span><\/span>and how do staff members accommodate towards patient skin colour.<\/span><\/p>\n

           <\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Information accessibility, can patients of BAME community seek and understand information surrounding diagnosis\/prognosis of prostate cancer when English is not their first language? <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

           <\/span><\/p>\n

          \u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Emotional support- is there support services available for people with language barriers, such as support groups, coffee mornings? Is the patient able to seek this help from family or friends? Does culture and ethnicity effect what makes individuals emotional\/worried ?  <\/span><\/span>do patients see differently to body image changes?<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

            <\/div>\n
              \n
            • proposed methodology <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
               The overall study will be non-experimental and will employ a sequential exploratory design to collect qualitative data and then use quantitative methods such as ethnography to group and generalise the findings.<\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n

              <\/span><\/div>\n
                \n
              • methods- data collection and analyses <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                \n

                semi-structured individual interviews conducted by people of opposing ethnicities to reduce bias and minimise room for assumptions. The data collected would be kept via audio recordings, transcribed, and analysed using Thematic analysis <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

                (include interview questions in appendix)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

                  \n
                • sampling<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                  \n

                  purposive\/selective sampling would be better suited to this research proposal, it allows for patients from the BAME community to be selected using <\/span>their confounding variables such as age, race\/ethnicity, religion, marital status, English language level etc<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

                  . It is also for further dissemination by selecting those who have already undergone prostate cancer treatment to get an overall perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n
