About this trial
This study aims to evaluate the effect of video-assisted mindfulness-based breathing on quality of life and mental well-being in individuals with breast cancer. Breast cancer patients often experience physical and psychological challenges that negatively affect their quality of life. Mindfulness-based breathing is a simple, non-invasive method that may help reduce stress and improve well-being.
In this randomized controlled study, participants will be assigned to either an intervention group or a control group. The intervention group will receive a face-to-face breathing training session and will practice daily mindfulness-based breathing exercises using a 5-minute video for 6 weeks. The control group will receive routine care.
Outcomes will be measured at baseline and after 6 weeks using validated scales assessing quality of life and mental well-being. This study aims to provide evidence for a simple and accessible supportive care method for individuals with breast cancer.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change in Quality of Life
Quality of life will be assessed using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) and the breast cancer-specific module (EORTC QLQ-BR23). Scores range from 0 to 100. Higher scores on global health status and functional scales indicate better quality of life, while higher scores on symptom scales indicate greater symptom burden.
Change in Mental Well-Being
Mental well-being will be assessed using the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale (WEMWBS). The scale includes 14 positively worded items scored on a 5-point Likert scale. Total scores range from 14 to 70, with higher scores indicating higher mental well-being.
