PURPOSE: To evaluate baseline distress among patients with breast cancer in Botswana, and assess the impact of culturally tailored peer survivor video narratives on distress and its mediators.

METHODS: We enrolled patients with stage I-IV breast cancer at Princess Marina Hospital. A Setswana-translated National Comprehensive Cancer Network distress thermometer (DT) and problem list (PL) were used for distress screening. DT score of ≥4 was considered a positive screen for moderate to high (moderate-high) distress. We analyzed independent PL factors associated with moderate-high distress using logistic regression. Participants then watched one to two videos and completed a postintervention DT/PL assessment after each video at 4 and 8 weeks. We conducted descriptive statistics to explore the impact of the videos.

RESULTS: One hundred six participants were enrolled, of whom 103 completed baseline DT and 106 completed baseline PL. Sixty-seven percent (69/103) of participants screened positive for moderate-high distress at baseline. Fear (odds ratio [OR], 11.25 [95% CI, 1.66 to 76.49]; P = .01) and appearance (OR, 4.96 [95% CI, 1.03 to 23.80]; P = .046) were PL factors significantly associated with moderate-high distress in the multivariable model. Sixty-eight and 47 participants completed postvideo assessments at approximately 4 and approximately 8 weeks, respectively. The greatest impact was observed at 8 weeks after watching two videos-29.8% of participants with moderate-high distress had no or mild distress. Similarly, there was a 29% (44%-15%; P = .005) and 17% (32%-15%; P = .03) absolute decrease from baseline to 8 weeks, in the proportion of patients who identified fear and appearance as sources of distress, respectively.

CONCLUSION: Two thirds of patients with breast cancer screened positive for moderate-high distress. Fear and appearance were sources of distress significantly associated with a positive screen. Our results show promising potential of peer survivor videos to mitigate distress and its potential mediators among patients with breast cancer.
