Full textBackground: Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer among women worldwide. Breast cancer is often treated through a mastectomy, involving a surgical procedure where either the whole or part of the breast is removed. The loss of a body part affects a person both physically and mentally. Aim: The aim of of this literature review was to explore women’s experiences after having a mastectomy as treatment for breast cancer. Method: The literature review was based on ten qualitative articles selected based on relevance to the aim. The articles were found in Cinahl Complete, Pubmed and ScienceDirect, through searches within the 2009-2019 year span. Friberg's method was used to review the articles' results. Similarities and differences were divided into themes. Results: The results of the literature review were presented in four main themes. The four main themes included Experiences of femininity , The physical body changes as experienced by the subjective body , Experience of support that promotes adaptation and The experience of an internal adaptive process. Discussion: Women's experiences of their changed bodies were discussed. The authors used Callista Roy's adaptation model to gain a deeper understanding of how humans need to adapt to their current living conditions in order to manage their life situation. The loss of a breast involved physical and mental changes and adjusting to these difficulties may be difficult for the woman.

Full textBreast cancer is the most common cause of death in middle-aged women in Sweden after lung cancer. Treatment of breast cancer usually consists of surgery, where the affected breast is removed, mastectomy. Diagnosis with breast cancer and walking through mastectomy can lead to complex changes in the woman's identity, as well as suffering, anxiety and altered self-esteem. The purpose of the nursing care must be that the woman being cared for should be independent, and experience health. The nurse must have communicative skills to maintain person-centered care. Purpose: To compile knowledge of what experiences women with breast cancer have of nursing after completed mastectomy. Method: A literature review. The result is based on 14 scientific articles. Results: In summary, healthcare staff had difficulty meeting the needs of women after completion of mastectomy. The results show that the women had experience of inadequate information from healthcare professionals about rehabilitation and complications after mastectomy. Nursing staff lacked knowledge of complications that may arise after mastectomy to meet the needs of women. The results of the studies indicated that women lacked follow-up after mastectomy. The women were pleased with the emotional support of healthcare professionals and that the healthcare staff were supportive, provided information and that they were available for questions. The women wished the care staff to provide a person-centered approach. Conclusion: Both positive and negative experiences were found in the results of the literature review regarding women's experiences of nursing after mastectomy. Most women in the chosen studies felt that healthcare staff could not meet their needs.

Full textBackground: Breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosis among women and the main treatment is surgery. One of the treatment options is mastectomy, which involves surgical removal of a breast. The loss can lead to strong emotions and a changed self-image. Aim: The aim of the study is to describe women’s experiences of losing a breast in mastectomy due to breast cancer. Methods: The literature study is based on nine scientific articles of qualitative approach that have been quality reviewed and analysed. Article searches were conducted in Cinahl, PubMed and PsycInfo. Results: The analysis of articles resulted in three new categories: A changed body, A loss of femininity and Importance of support from the environment. The categories were further divided into related subcategories. Conclusion: The loss of a breast causes physical and psychological changes. The women mainly have negative experiences of mastectomy and the experiences are both individual and mutual. An insight into women’s lives creates an understanding of their life situation. In-depth knowledge of women’s experiences of losing a breast in mastectomy is a prerequisite for the nurse to practice good nursing care and apply patient-centered care.

Full textBreast cancer affects approximately one million women worldwide each year and it is the most common cancer among women in Sweden today. Surgery is often the primary choice of treatment. In some cases the woman has to remove the entire breast, mastectomy. Losing a breast causes both physical and psychological changes in a woman and affects different aspects of her life. That is why some women choose to do a breast reconstruction. The purpose of this study is to highlight women´s experience of breast reconstruction in connection with breast cancer or in case of risk for breast cancer. The study was carried out as a literature study and 11 quantitative and qualitative scientific articles were analyzed. The results show that women who have breast reconstruction after mastectomy are generally satisfied. However, there are also a number of women who are dissatisfied. The study shows that the two main aspects of women´s dissatisfaction over the breast reconstruction are based on insufficient information and inadequate support from health care. It is an important task for health care to assist these women with a greater psychosocial support and more evident information for example photos, videos, booklets and stories from women who have similar experiences.

Full textBackground: Breast cancer is the most common cancer that affects women. In some cases, woman must remove parts of or both breasts, a so-called mastectomy. Losing breasts is both mentally and physically difficult and quality of life is affected and may choose to undergo breast reconstruction. Aim: The aim was to illustrate women's experiences in connection with breast reconstruction after mastectomy. Method: A general literature study was conducted with nine scientific articles with qualitative approach and analyzed with content analysis. Result: To illustrate women's experiences, result is presented through three themes: experiences of gaining information and support, changing body image, expectations and physical recovery, and quality of life and becoming whole again. Results showed the importance to have a contact nurse. With this contact, she felt secure and absorbed information and made choices without worry. The need for a support group for women during the recovery process emerged, body perception changed. Conclusion: Breast reconstruction gave their life back and felt whole again. It is therefore of great importance that nurse´s understand their experiences of how it feels to undergo a breast reconstruction so that they can offer support and provide care throughout the process.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Communication in nursing is to establish a nurse-patient relationship. Some nurses are quite effective at this whilst others are not so effective. The female patient diagnosed with cancer of the breast can face many dilemmas ranging from a physical, psychological and psychosocial domain. Nursing, being an interactive skill, requires the nurse to be able to communicate with the patient. The inability to communicate can hamper this very crucial relationship. For the purpose of this study it was decided to provide an in-depth account of the management of the nurse-patient communication in the ward. The rationale for choosing this setting (ward) were based on the comprehensive functions of a professional nurse and his/her ability to communicate. The objectives set for the study were to describe the manner in which professional nurses communicated with the patient diagnosed with cancer of the breast and who underwent a mastectomy, barriers that prohibited the communication and the patient’s perception of the communicative processes. A quantitative, exploratory and descriptive approach was applied to investigate and describe factors that influence communication between the patient with breast cancer and the professional nurse within a provincial hospital in the Western Cape. The total population included only female patients diagnosed with cancer of the breast who underwent a mastectomy and who were referred to the breast outpatient clinic. These female patients had to be diagnosed during a twenty month period as of January 2007 to August 2008 and had to be hospitalised within a ward setting after their diagnosis. The population size consisted of 27% of the total population with a 9% refusal rate. A survey was done using a six point Likert scale ranging from strongly disagree, disagree and mildly disagree to mildly agree, agree and strongly agree. The questionnaire consisting of close-ended questions were used for the collection of data and the researcher personally collected data. Ethical approval was obtained from the Committee of Human Science Research at Stellenbosch University and the Department of Health - Cape Town. Consent to conduct the research was obtained from the institution and informed consent from the participants. A pilot study was conducted to test the questionnaire which did form part of the study. A 10% sample of the population, namely 10 participants, was involved in this study. The validity and reliability was assured through the pilot study and the use of a statistician, experts in oncology nursing, an oncology doctor and the research methodologist. Data was tabulated and presented in histograms and frequencies. Statistical significant associations were drawn between variables, using the Chi square test. The Spearman rank (rho) order correlation was used to show the strength of the relationship between two continuous variables. Findings included statistical significance between the level of schooling and the nurse, who took the respondents at face value and communicated what she deemed necessary (rho=0.29, p=0.00). The respondents also showed concern and disagreed that the ward nurses provide their family with relevant information (p=0.00). R ecommendations include: Nursing education should include a module in communication on a graduate and post graduate level In-service training programmes should focus on the interpersonal relationship between the nurse and the patient and the importance thereof. Continuous Quality Improvement should include patient satisfaction surveys. Awareness campaigns about the importance of communication between the patient and the health professional should be conducted Developing protocols and policy guidelines that can assist the nursing staff with the communication process. Since communication is an interactive process it requires skillful conduct. Nurses need to realize the importance communication plays in the health sector and the impact it has on patients, irrespective of whether it is from a verbal or non-verbal content. Effective communication or not can have an everlasting impact.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Kommunikasie in verpleging behels die vestiging van ’n verpleegster-pasiënt verhouding. Sommige verpleegsters is taamlik effektief hierin, terwyl andere nie so effektief is nie. Die vroulike pasiënt wat met borskanker gediagnoseer is, kan baie dilemmas in die gesig staar wat wissel van ’n fisiese, psigologiese tot ’n psigo-sosiale domein. Verpleging, wat ’n interaktiewe vaardigheid is, vereis dat die verpleegster met die pasiënt moet kan kommunikeer. Die onvermoë om te kan kommunikeer, kan hierdie beslissende verhouding belemmer. Vir die doel van die studie is besluit om ’n indringende verslag van die bestuur van die verpleegster-pasiënt kommunikasie in die saal te doen. Die rasionaal vir die keuse van die omgewing (saal) is gebaseer op die komprehensiewe funksies van ’n professionele verpleegster en sy/haar vermoë om te kan kommunikeer. Die doelstellings wat uiteengesit is vir hierdie studie is om die manier te beskryf waarop professionele verpleegsters met die pasiënt wat met borskanker gediagnoseer is, en wat ’n mastektomie ondergaan het, omgaan, asook die hindernisse wat kommunikasie en die pasiënt se persepsie van die kommunikatiewe prosesse belemmer het. ’n Kwantitatiewe, verkennende en beskrywende benadering is toegepas om faktore te ondersoek en te beskryf wat kommunikasie tussen die pasiënt met borskanker en die professionele verpleegster in ’n provinsiale hospitaal in die Wes-Kaap beïnvloed. Die totale bevolking het slegs vroulike pasiënte wat met kanker gediagnoseer is en ’n mastektomie ondergaan het en na die bors buite-pasiënt kliniek verwys is, ingesluit. Hierdie vroulike pasiënte moes gedurende ’n periode van twintig maande vanaf Januarie 2007 tot Augustus 2008 gediagnoseer en gehospitaliseer gewees het in ’n saalomgewing na hul diagnose. Die bevolking grootte het bestaan uit 27% van die totale bevolking met ’n 9% verwerpingskoers. ’n Opname was gedoen wat die ses punt Likert skaal gebruik wat wissel vanaf sterk verskil van mening, verskil en effense verskil van mening tot effens saamstem, saamstem en sterk saamstem. Die vraelys wat uit geslote vrae bestaan, was gebruik vir die insameling van data en die navorser het die data persoonlik gekollekteer. Etiese goedkeuring was verkry van die Raad vir Geesteswetenskaplike navorsing aan die Universiteit van Stellenbosch en die Departement van Gesondheid – Kaapstad. Toestemming om die navorsing uit te voer is verkry van die inrigting en ingeligte toestemming van die deelnemers. ’n Loodsprojek is uitgevoer om die vraelys te toets wat deel van die navorsing uitgemaak het. ’n 10% Steekproef van die bevolking, naamlik 10 deelnemers, was betrokke by die studie. Die geldigheid en betroubaarheid was verseker deur die loodsprojek en die gebruik van ’n statistikus, kenners in onkologie verpleging, ’n onkologiese dokter en die navorsingsmetodoloog. Data is getabulleer en aangebied in histogramme en frekwensies. Statistiese beduidende assosiasies is gemaak tussen veranderlikes, deur gebruik te maak van die Chi-kwadraat toets. Die Spearman rang (rho) orde korrelasie is gebruik om die sterkte van die verhouding tussen die aaneenlopende veranderlikes te wys. Bevindings het statistiese beduidendheid ingesluit tussen die vlak van geleerdheid en die verpleegster wat die respondente op sigwaarde geneem het en die kommunikasie wat sy noodsaaklik gevind het (rho=0.29, p=0.00). Die respondente het ook besorgdheid getoon en het nie saamgestem dat die saalverpleegsters hul gesinne van die relevante inligting voorsien het nie (p=0.00). A anbevelings sluit in: Verpleegopleiding behoort ’n module in kommunikasie op graad en nagraadse vlak in te sluit. Indiensopleidingsprogramme behoort te fokus op die interpersoonlike verhouding tussen die verpleegster en die pasiënt en die belangrikheid daarvan. Deurlopende kwaliteitsverbetering behoort pasiënt tevredenheidsopnames in te sluit. Bewusmakingsveldtogte oor die belangrikheid van kommunikasie tussen die pasiënt en die gesondheidsprofesioneel behoort geloods te word. Protokolle en beleidsriglyne wat die verpleegpersoneel kan help met die kommunikasie proses behoort ontwikkel te word. Sienende dat kommunikasie ’n interaktiewe proses is, word vaardige gedrag geverg. Verpleegsters behoort die belangrikheid wat kommunikasie speel in die gesondheidssektor te besef en die impak wat dit op die pasiënte het, ongeag of dit verbaal of nie-verbaal is. Effektiewe kommunikasie aldan nie, kan ’n ewigdurende impak hê.

Full textBackground: Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer among women globally. Breast cancer is classified according to the TNM staging system and includes stages 0-IV which vary in severity. Breast cancer is diagnosed through a triple diagnosis. This means that women who have breast cancer undergo a clinical examination, diagnostic imaging and needle biopsy. Furthermore, some women choose to undergo a mastectomy, which requires that some criteria are met. Mastectomy is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of the entire breast tissue, including the areola and nipple. Reactions to a breast cancer diagnosis vary, but overall it is perceived as unreal, life changing and that the time before surgery and the care that follows is characterized by anxiety. With regard to breast cancer being common among women, the nurse has a role in the care of this patient group. Therefore, the nurse should possess the knowledge required in the meeting with these women. Aim: The aim of this literature study is to explore women's experiences of the nurse's support before a mastectomy. Method: The chosen method was a qualitative literature review, after which 10 scientific articles were reviewed on the basis of a latent content analysis. Results: The results ended in three categories, experience of sufficient support, experience of insufficient support and desired support. Conclusion: Women have different experiences of support from the nurse. The women jointly state that the support should be adapted to their needs, which differs between the women. The nurse should therefore plan and adapt the nursing in consultation with the woman in order to be able to provide correct support in the preoperative period.

Full textBackground: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women all over the world. To be diagnosed with breast cancer is a big challenge. Good contact with healthcare professionals is important for treatment and recovery. The experience of women is described in research and need to be compiled to provide an overview of the state of knowledge Aim: The purpose of this literature study was to examine women's experiences of suffering from breast cancer, their view of nursing care and undergoing surgical treatment. Methods: A qualitative method was used based on eight scientific articles reviewed with Olsson and Sörensen’s (2011) review table. The analysis process was inspired of Hsieh and Shannon’s (2005) analysis form. Results: The results were categorized into three main themes: new emotions, communication with nursing staff, and the relationship with nursing staff, altogether with six sub-themes. Women who have gone through surgical treatment due to breast cancer wanted support from the nursing staff, improved communication, personalized information about the surgery and what will happen post surgery. Conclusion: To be able to provide women with the best possible care, the nursing staff need to have a more person-centered mindset with a focus on support and communication and provide individualized information.

Full textBackground: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the world. The main form of treatment is done through surgery called a mastectomy, which means that the entire breast surgically removed. Another common surgical procedure is performing a mastectomy where the entire breast is removed. Women's breasts symbolize femininity and most women who have undergone a mastectomy affected in different ways by physical, psychological and social changes. Aim: To highlight women's experience after undergoing a mastectomy due to breast cancer. Method: A general literature study based on twelve scientific articles. Data were collected through searches of scientific articles in the databases CINAHL and MEDLINE. Results: Based on the compilation of articles results revealed five subcategories. Based on these then created a main category, not just the loss of a breast. It appeared that women experienced a change in their body image, their femininity and a sense of not feeling normal. The women described an absence of sufficient information in connection with undergoing a mastectomy. Conclusion: The study explains that women who have undergone a mastectomy due to breast cancer experience stresses due to bodily changes. With good information and support from family and friends its easier for the women to deal with the situation after the surgery. Clinical significance: The study results can provide healthcare information valuable for understanding women's experiences after undergoing a mastectomy and how they see themselves after having surgery to remove a breast associated with breast cancer.

Full textBackground: Breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosis among women. Mastectomy is surgical treatment in which one or both breasts are removed. Previous research has shown that women who have had a mastectomy have a more negative body image than women who have had other surgical treatments. Aim: The aim of this literature study was to shed light on women with breast cancer´s experiences of mastectomy, with focus on body image. Methods: A literature study with a qualitative approach was conducted. Nine articles were identified through database searches and were analyzed and reviewed through thematic content analysis. Results: Three categories where identified: Dealing with a changed identity, The importance of the breast for women and Sexuality and relationships. Nine subcategories were identified which shed lights to how the changed body image affects the identity, femininity and sexuality. Conclusion: The changes in women´s body image are also affected by and linked to external norms and relationships. There is a need for increased awareness among the nursing profession about these changed perceptions and their individual and complex character. This is needed to approach and support these women in the best possible way.

Full textBackground: Breast cancer is one of the most common forms of cancers in women in Sweden. A treatment option for breast cancer is mastectomy, which means removal of parts or the entire breast. The treatment can lead to physical, mental and psychosocial changes in women's lives. The authors hope that the literature review will contribute to greater understanding and knowledge of women´s experiences of the body after mastectomy in general nurses. Aim: The purpose of the study was to illuminate women’s experiences of the body after mastectomy in breast cancer. Method: A literature review based on ten qualitative articles that were relevant to the purpose. The results of the articles were reviewed and analyzed according to Friberg’s method. Similarities and differences from the included studies were distinguished and categorized into main themes and sub-themes. The authors used Katie Eriksson´s health cross as a theoretical starting point. Results: The results are presented in five main themes: A changed body; Experience of the body after mastectomy; Change in femininity and identity, Striving for normality in connection with body change; Experience of the impact of body change on social relations. Discussion: The authors discussed the women´s experiences of the body after mastectomy and how body change affects women´s self-image and relationship to the environment. Katie Eriksson´s health cross was used to discuss women’s health position. The authors have also used other studies and their own reflections in the results discussion.

Full textBackground: Approximately 9000 cases of breastcancer are diagnosed annually at an average of 20 women each day, about 40% of these women undergo a mastectomy. Mastectomy is a surgical treatment where a part of or the whole breast is removed. A reconstruction is being offered for the women who have undergone the procedure. Body-image and Self-esteem are central in women's view of themselves and are affected by the norms of society. Suffering is common among women who have undergone a mastectomy. Nurses are responsible for relieving suffering and strengthening the health of patients. Purpose: To investigate women's experiences of how a mastectomy in breast cancer affects self-esteem and body image. Method: The study was conducted as an empirical study. Six blogs were selected, reviewed and analyzed. Result: Three themes emerged, Losing a body part, Feeling feminine and attractive and Acceptance and loving oneself. Losing a part of the body is traumatic and stressful. It is difficult to feel feminine and attractive both in front of oneself and in front of men. It takes a long time to accept and love oneself again. Conclusion: Women experience feelings of exclusion that lead to prolonged suffering and impair their mental health. The scars are both a positive and a negative reminder of what they have been through and that life is fragile.

Full textAs tecnologias educativas merecem discussÃo e reflexÃo quanto à sua validaÃÃo e implementaÃÃo na prÃtica assistencial. A reabilitaÃÃo com o auxÃlio de tecnologias educacionais pode ser bastante eficaz, pois motiva a mulher a se cuidar e adquirir conhecimentos necessÃrios e adequados para serem adotados na efetividade do seu autocuidado. Objetivou-se validar um manual educativo direcionado para a promoÃÃo do autocuidado de mulheres mastectomizadas, identificar aspectos que podem ser aperfeiÃoados e/ou modificados e avaliar o manual educativo proposto quanto à legibilidade e validade de conteÃdo e de aparÃncia. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de desenvolvimento metodolÃgico. O referencial teÃrico-metodologico foi adotado com base nos critÃrios do modelo de Pasquali (1998) composto por trÃs conjuntos de procedimentos: teÃricos, empÃricos e analÃticos. Como se trata de um manual educativo, usou-se apenas os procedimentos teÃricos. A coleta de dados foi realizada de abril a junho de 2006 em dois momentos metodolÃgicos. Primeiro, a avaliaÃÃo dos quatorze juÃzes-especialistas (profissionais); segundo, a anÃlise semÃntica de nove mulheres mastectomizadas escolhidas conforme critÃrios preestabelecidos para ambos. Os dados foram extraÃdos por meio de questionÃrios individuais na forma de escala Likert com itens distribuÃdos em trÃs blocos de anÃlise. Os dados receberam tratamento descritivo, sendo calculada a adequaÃÃo da representaÃÃo comportamental dos itens, a correlaÃÃo linear de Pearson dos itens avaliados pelos juÃzes e a avaliaÃÃo do Ãndice de Legibilidade de Flesch do material (ILF), utilizando o Revisor Gramatical AutomÃtico para PortuguÃs (ReGra). Na validaÃÃo de aparÃncia, os juÃzes-especialistas sugeriram vÃrias alteraÃÃes, mas houve tendÃncia dos juÃzes optarem pelas respostas em concordÃncia. A maioria das respostas ficou entre totalmente adequado (142) e adequado (120), nÃo havendo indicaÃÃo significativa de discordÃncia, pois dos 22 itens e das quatro opÃÃes de respostas, apenas cinco itens obtiveram escores inadequados. Quanto à adequaÃÃo comportamental dos 22 itens, quatorze atingiram a meta proposta de 80% de concordÃncia entre os juÃzes, quatro tiveram Ãndices limÃtrofes e quatro tiveram Ãndices abaixo do parÃmetro adotado. Na correlaÃÃo linear de Pearson, os avaliadores analisaram alguns itens de forma linearmente dependente uns com os outros, a indicar que o instrumento de avaliaÃÃo quanto aos aspectos referentes ao manual està adequado. Quanto à anÃlise semÃntica, 114 respostas ficaram em totalmente adequado e 114 em adequado. Nesse grupo nÃo houve indicaÃÃo significativa de discordÃncia, pois dos 26 itens e das quatro opÃÃes de respostas, apenas um item obteve escore inadequado. Em relaÃÃo ao ILF, os resultados variaram de 43 a 64, ou seja, leitura fÃcil e difÃcil, apropriado para o ensino fundamental completo ou mÃdio incompleto. Conclui-se que o manual educativo à um recurso que pode ser usado de forma positiva no processo de reabilitaÃÃo da mastectomizada caso as mensagens sejam apreendidas por ela; os profissionais devem considerar a escolaridade e habilidade de leitura do paciente, pois a leitura à um processo complexo e a compreensÃo de textos envolve questÃes relacionadas ao leitor e à sua interaÃÃo. Espera-se que a aplicaÃÃo do conhecimento adquirido nesse estudo proporcione impactos positivos para a enfermagem e para a saÃde da mulher mastectomizada e garanta-lhe melhor qualidade de vida.
The educative technologies deserve quarrel and reflection how much to its validation and implementation in the practical assistencial. The rehabilitation with the aid of educational technologies can be sufficiently efficient, therefore it motivates the woman if to take care and to acquire knowledge necessary and adequate to be adopted in the effectiveness of its self care one. It was objectified to validate a directed educative manual for the promotion of the self care of mastectomizadas women, to identify aspects that can be perfected e/or modified and to evaluate the educative manual considered how much to the legibility and validity of content and appearance. One is about a research of methodological development. The referencial theoretician-methodological was adopted on the basis of the criteria of the model of Pasquali (1998) composed for three sets of procedures: theoreticians, empiricists and analytical. As one is about an educative manual, one used only the theoretical procedures. The collection of data was carried through of April the June of 2006 at two methodological moments. First, the evaluation of the fourteen judge-specialists (professional); second, the analysis semantics of nine mastectomizadas women chosen as criteria preset for both. The data had been extracted by means of individual questionnaires in the form of Likert scale with item distributed in three blocks of analysis. The data had received treatment descriptive, being calculated the adequacy of the mannering representation of the item, the linear correlation of Pearson of the item evaluated for the judges and the evaluation of the Index of Legibility of Flesch of the material (ILF), using the Automatic Grammatical to Revise for Portuguese (ReGra). In the appearance validation, the judge-specialists had suggested some alterations, but it had trend of the judges to opt to the answers in agreement. The majority of the answers was enters total adequate (142) and adequate (120), not having significant indication of discord, therefore of the 22 item and the four options of answers, but five item had gotten you prop up inadequate. How much to the mannering adequacy of the 22 item, fourteen had reached the goal proposal of 80% of agreement between the judges, four had had bordering indices and four had had indices below of the adopted parameter. In the linear correlation of Pearson, the appraisers had analyzed some item of form linearly dependent ones with the others, to indicate that the evaluation instrument how much to the referring aspects to the manual is adjusted. How much to the analysis semantics, 114 answers had been in total adequate and 114 in adequate. In this group it did not have significant indication of discord, therefore of the 26 item and the four options of answers, but an item got props up inadequate. In relation to the ILF, the results varied of 43 the 64, that is, easy and difficult reading, appropriate for education basic complete or incomplete mdium. One concludes that the educative manual is a resource that can be used of positive form in the process of rehabilitation of the mastectomizada case the messages is apprehended by it; the professionals must consider the instruction level and ability of reading of the patient, therefore the reading is a complex process and the understanding of texts involves questions related to the reader and its interaction. One expects that the application of the knowledge acquired in this study provides positive impacts for the nursing and the health of the mastectomizada woman and it guarantees to it quality to of life better.

Full textBACKGROUND: More than one in ten women get diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime. Breast cancer is currently the most common type of cancer amongst women. Despite the high incidence the number of women who are declared healthy in recent years, increase. Women with breast cancer experience an altered self-image after diagnosis and treatment which generally creates specific nursing-needs. It is important to handle these impacts of breast cancer since they are strongly connected with life quality. This increases the need of holistic nursing with a quality of life focus. PURPOSE: To highlight the nurse´s supportive role in the care of patients with breast cancer. METHOD: The survey was conducted as a literature review and based on qualitative studies. RESULT: Breast cancer patients at various stages, from diagnosis to after completed treatment express that the nurse has been an important resource throughout the care process. In particular, they emphasize managing information, being supportive and is knowledgeable. The nurse has conveyed emotional support, helped to navigate in the system surrounding the care process, owned skills and knowledge in cancer care and that supplied information. CONSLUSION: The literature review show that nurses in the majority of cases meet patients in their needs for support, information, clinical skills and knowledge of how the system of health care functions. It appears that most patients and their relatives are satisfied with the care and they have trusted the nurses. To be able to provide care with a salutogenic perspective in interest, the patients not only need physical care, they need care with a holistic perspective.

Full textABSTRACT Background: Breast cancer is today the most common form of cancer in women and also the most studied form of cancer. Breast cancer generates in a suffering even though the probability of surviving after being diagnosed with breast cancer has increased. Surgery is the primary treatment for breast cancer, which increases the need to further study how this affects the quality of life and how it can affect body perception. Changes in body perception and quality of life in relation to sexuality create suffering, hence care and nursing staff need to have knowledge about this as suffering is the motive for all care. Aim: The purpose of this study is to investigate how women with breast cancer who have undergone a mastectomy experience their body perception and quality of life in relation to sexuality. Method: Descriptive literature study of scientific articles with a qualitative approach. Results: Mastectomy tends to have an impact on women's body image and quality of life in relation to sexuality. The most prominent results were that scarring and societal norms had an impact on women's body image and that the feminine identity was disturbed in the loss of the breast. Furthermore, this study shows a negative change in women's quality of life in relation to sexuality due to the changed body perception. Conclusion: Body perception and quality of life in relation to sexuality were negatively affected because of mastectomy.

Full textSyftet: Syftet med studien var att belysa kvinors upplevelser av kroppen efter en cancerrelaterad mastektmoi. Bakgrund: Allt fler kvinnor drabbas av bröstcancer i dagsläget. Detta har gjort att behandlingen har utvecklats och fler kvinnor överlever sin bröstcancer. Den kirurgiska metoden mastektomi är ett alternativ till att avlägsna bröstcancern vilket kan påverka kvinnans upplevelse av kroppen både fysiskt och psykiskt.Sjuksköterskan har en betydande roll kring kvinnorna. Metod: Detta är en litteraturstudie som bygger på artiklar med kvantitativa samt kvalitativa metoder. Resultat: Resultatet visar att flertalet kvinnor som har genomgått en mastektomi får en förändrad uppfattning om kroppen. Även upplevelser som påverkar den psykiska hälsan är identifierade såsom upplevelsen av förlust och känslan av att vara oattraktiv. Slutsats: Det som framkom var att hänsyn bör tas till att försöka förbättra kvinnornas acceptans av den kroppsliga förändringen. Då flertalet kvinnor har uttryckt en negativ påverkan på den. Ytterligare aspekt att ta hänsyn till är kvinnans relation med eventuell partner. Sjuksköterskan bör integrera honom i omvårdnaden och även ge honom den stöttning han är i behov av. Det är inte bara en förändring för kvinnan utan också för mannen.

Full textThe breast cancer has been established as a serious public health problem, not only by the growing number of cases diagnosed each year, but also by the financial investment that is required for diagnosis and treatment. The objective of this study was to evaluate actions for early detection and risk factors for breast cancer in women at a Basic Health Unit, Fortaleza, CearÃ. It was conducted a cross-sectional study, descriptive and analytical, with a quantitative approach, on shares of early detection and risk factors to the breast cancer. The research was developed in a Basic Unit of Family Health, Fortaleza, CearÃ, in the period from March to November of 2008. The population was based on the amount of annual gynecological attendances made by nurses, for a total of 1920. The sample was 320 women. It was used as technique for data collection a semi-structured interview and as instrument, the semi-structured form. For the analysis was used the chi-square test with the aid of SPSS version 15.0 in order to measure the association of variables, at 5% level of significance. The following results were obtained: the average age of interviewed women was 37, had family income below a minimum wage 139 (43.44%) of them; studied between 11 and 15 years of study, 192 (60%) of the total; reported first episode menstrual, aged over twelve years, 206 (64.38%); only 64 (20%) had entered the menopause and 238 (74.38%) had their first pregnancy, aged below 30 years of age; on breastfeeding, 210 (65.63%) breastfed their children; it was found that 177 (55.31%) make use contraceptive oral; had family history of breast cancer, 71 (22.19 %); affirm the habit of smoking 62 (19.38%); said drink alcohol 89 (27.81%). It was inferred that 252 (78.75%) know the BSE. The Clinical examination of the breasts is performed by 246 (76.87%) of respondents. It was observed that 46 (44.23%) reported perform mammography annually. It was detected that the years of study influenced on practice of BSE. However, there was a lack of association between the time of study and implementation of BCE and knowledge of mammography. As the range of income, this variable was associated only with the knowledge of the BSE and the mammography. It is noteworthy from the results of the research, that even with the technology developed in recent decades for the control of breast cancer, can not ignore the many factors that make the etiology of this neoplasm. Hence the need for greater effectiveness in detecting breast cancer, and early recognition of its risk factors
O cÃncer de mama tem se constituÃdo como um grave problema de saÃde pÃblica, nÃo sà pelo nÃmero de casos crescentes diagnosticados a cada ano, mas tambÃm pelo investimento financeiro que à necessÃrio para diagnÃstico e tratamento. Objetivou-se neste estudo, avaliar aÃÃes de detecÃÃo precoce e fatores de risco para cÃncer de mama, em mulheres atendidas em uma Unidade BÃsica de SaÃde, Fortaleza, CearÃ. Realizou-se um estudo transversal, descritivo e analÃtico com abordagem quantitativa, sobre aÃÃes de detecÃÃo precoce e fatores de risco para cÃncer de mama. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida em uma Unidade BÃsica de SaÃde da FamÃlia do municÃpio de Fortaleza-CearÃ, no perÃodo de marÃo a novembro de 2008. A populaÃÃo baseou-se na quantidade anual de atendimentos ginecolÃgicos realizados pelos enfermeiros perfazendo um total de 1920. A amostra obtida foi de 320 mulheres. Utilizou-se como tÃcnica de coleta de dados a entrevista semi-estruturada e como instrumento o formulÃrio semi-estruturado. Usou-se para a anÃlise, o teste qui-quadrado com o auxÃlio do SPSS versÃo 15.0, a fim de medir a associaÃÃo de variÃveis, ao nÃvel de 5% de significÃncia. Obtiveram-se os seguintes resultados: a idade mÃdia das mulheres entrevistadas foi de 37 anos; possuÃam renda familiar inferior a um salÃrio mÃnimo 139 (43,44%) delas; apresentaram escolaridade entre 11 e 15 anos de estudo, 192 (60%) do total; relataram primeiro episÃdio menstrual, com idade acima de doze anos, 206 (64,38%); apenas 64 (20%) haviam entrado na menopausa e 238 (74,38%) tiveram a primeira gestaÃÃo, na faixa etÃria abaixo de 30 anos de idade; quanto à amamentaÃÃo, 210 (65,63%) amamentaram seus filhos; constatou-se que 177 (55,31%) fazem uso anticoncepcional oral; tinham histÃrico familiar de cÃncer de mama, 71 (22,19%); declararam o hÃbito de fumar 62 (19,38%); afirmaram ingerir bebida alcoÃlica 89 (27,81%). PÃde-se inferir que 252 (78,75%) conhecem o AEM. O exame clÃnico das mamas à realizado em 246 (76,87%) das entrevistadas. Pode-se observar ainda que 46 (44,23%) relataram realizar o exame mamogrÃfico anualmente. Constatou-se que o tempo de estudo influencia na prÃtica do AEM. PorÃm, verificou-se a nÃo existÃncia de associaÃÃo entre o tempo de estudo e a realizaÃÃo do ECM e o conhecimento da mamografia. Quanto à faixa de renda, houve associaÃÃo desta variÃvel somente com o conhecimento do AEM e com o da mamografia. Vale ressaltar, a partir dos resultados da pesquisa, que mesmo com a tecnologia desenvolvida nas Ãltimas dÃcadas para o controle do cÃncer de mama, nÃo se podem desconsiderar os mÃltiplos fatores que compÃem a etiologia desta neoplasia. DaÃ, a necessidade de uma maior efetividade na detecÃÃo do cÃncer de mama e reconhecimento precoce dos seus fatores de risco

Full textBackground: More women survive their breast cancer due to early detection and treatment of the tumour. The primary treatment for breast cancer is extensive with surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and side effects. The increased survival poses higher demands for the follow-up care, where the task is to monitor changes in health after completion of primary treatment. Aim: The aim was to explore women's’ experience of care following end of primary treatment for breast cancer. Method: A literature review was performed according to Friberg's method. The following electronic databases were searched: Cinahl Complete and Medline with Full Text. Terms related to “breast cancer”, “follow upp care” samt “experience” eller “perceptions” were used in all searches. One mixed method and nine qualitative articles, published between 2008 and 2018, were included in the review. Results were thematized based on similarities and differences. Results: The analysis resulted in three themes. Women's information needs that have two sub-themes: Lack of information regarding follow-up care, which is about the lack of information from the specialist care which affected women posttreatment and The lack of information in the follow-up care which is about information shortages during follow-ups. The second main theme is: Womens preference about follow-up care and continuity. The third main theme is: Stressful visits and not being met from their needs. Discussion: In the method discussion the literature review strength and weaknesses are discussed. In the result discussion, the results are discussed based on the background, new research, and Antonovsky's theory of sense of coherence. The result shows that there are information shortages. The authors discuss the role of the nurse in the after care for breast cancer patients.

Resumo: Introdução: A mulher com câncer de mama vivencia o sofrimento da doença de maneira peculiar, pois o local onde está acometida a enfermidade é símbolo de feminilidade, sexualidade e estética, sendo alvo de contemplação. Com a mastectomia, vários sentimentos e sofrimentos são desencadeados, alterando a qualidade de vida. Há necessidade de aceitação do novo corpo e adequação das atividades diárias após a cirurgia. Diante das severas repercussões do procedimento de mutilação e sensibilizando-se com a situação dessas mulheres, propõe-se nesse trabalho um programa de intervenção, que utilizou a dança circular como instrumento para uma possível modificação no estado bio-psico-emocional. Objetivo: Avaliar a qualidade de vida das mulheres mastectomizadas do grupo de estudo e do grupo controle antes e após três meses de intervenção. Método: Trata-se de um estudo de intervenção com desenho quase-experimental, de abordagem quantitativa (envolvendo mensuração de variáveis). Os critérios de inclusão foram: ter sido submetida à mastectomia total ou parcial, com mutilação da mama; ter dezoito anos ou mais; estar ou não em tratamento quimioterápico e/ou radioterapia; ter mais de três meses de pós-operatório; ter período igual ou menor que um ano da cirurgia; não ter metástases diagnosticada; não apresentar alguma dificuldade de compreensão para responder ao instrumento. Optou-se pela amostragem de conveniência, e a formação de dois grupos (controle e de estudo). Um questionário validado e traduzido no Brasil sobre qualidade de vida (WHOQOL-bref), foi aplicado as participantes, antes e após as atividades de dança, que teve duração de três meses (doze encontros). O grupo controle também respondeu ao questionário antes e após três meses. Os resultados obtidos passaram pela análise estatística descritiva e comparativa intragrupos e entre grupos, segundo teste t de Student pareado e não pareado, respectivamente. Para avaliar o efeito da intervenção foram utilizadas as análises de Modelos Lineares Generalizados, com estimativa através das Equações de Estimação Generalizada (EEG) e Análises de Contrastes. Resultados: A amostra constituiu-se de 35 participantes, com 11 no grupo de dança e 24 no grupo controle. Na comparação dos domínios do instrumento WHOQOLbref, entre e intragrupos (antes e depois da intervenção) observou-se na análise intragrupo uma diferença significativa (p<0,05) nos domínios psicológico (p=0,0018), físico (p=0,0006) e meio ambiente (p=0,0297) do grupo de estudo, demonstrando que a intervenção (dança circular) provocou um efeito nesses domínios. As análises de contrastes revelaram ainda diferenças significativas no grupo de dança apenas para o domínio psicológico (p=0,0001). Não houve diferenças em nenhum dos domínios no grupo controle. Conclusões: Os resultados apontam que na análise entre os grupos (controle e de estudo) não se verificou diferenças significativas entre eles. Mas, ao analisar somente o grupo de intervenção, houve diferenças, com destaque para o domínio psicológico. Linha de pesquisa: O processo de cuidar em enfermagem, saúde da mulher
Abstract: Introduction: The woman with breast cancer lives deeply the suffering of the illness in a peculiar way, therefore the place where it is attacked the disease is a symbol of femininity, sexuality and aesthetic, being targeted of contemplation. With the mastectomy, many feelings and sufferings are unchained, modifying the quality of life. After surgery there is need for acceptance of the new body and adequacy in daily activities. Ahead of the severe consequences of the procedure of mutilation and sensitizing itself with the situation of these women, is proposed in this work an intervention program, who used the circular dance as a instrument for a possible modification in the bio-psycho-emotional state. Objective: To evaluate the quality of life of the mastectomies women of the group of study and of the group controlled before and after three months of intervention. Subjects and Methods: One is about a study of intervention with almost-experimental drawing, quantitative boarding (measure of the variable). The inclusion criteria had been: women submitted to the total or partial mastectomy, with mutilation of the breast; to have eighteen years or more; undergoing or not in chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy; to have three months of post operative or more; to have equal or lesser period that one year of the surgery; not to have metastases; not to present some incapacity to answer to the questionnaires. It was opted to the sampling of convenience, and the formation of two groups (control and of study). A questionnaire validated and translated in Brazil about quality of life (WHOQOL-brief) was applied the participants, before and after to the activities of dance, that it had duration of three months (twelve meeting). The group control also answered to the questionnaire before and after three months. The gotten results had passed for the analysis statistics of descriptive and comparative form intra group and between group, second test t (t of Student paired) and t of Student respectively. To evaluate the effect of the intervention were used the analysis of Generalized Linear Models with estimated through the Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) and Analyses of Contrasts. Results: The sample consisted of 35 participants, with 11 in the dance group and 24 in the control group. In the comparison of the domains of the instrument WHOQOL-bref, between and within groups, before and after the intervention, observed in the intragroup analysis a significant difference (p<0,05), in the domains psychological (p=0,0018), physical (p=0,0006) and environmental (p=0,0297) of the group of study, showing that the intervention (dance move) caused an effect in these areas. Analysis of contrasts also revealed significant differences (p <0.05) in the group of dance just for the psychological domain (p=0,0001). It did not have differences in none of the domains in the control group. Conclusions: The results show that in the analysis between the groups (control and study) there was no significant differences between them. But in analyzing only the intervention group, there were differences, with emphasis on the psychological domain

Full textBackground: Breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosis in women globally. The most common treatment is surgery in the form of mastectomy. An altered body-image is in a life-world perspective a common complication. Body-image and sexuality are strongly correlated to sexual health. Aim: To describe women’s experiences of sexual health related to mastectomy due to breast cancer. Method: A literature review with qualitative method. 10 articles were included in the result. Results: Three categories were identified: To live with a changed body (Altered body image & loss of identity and Emotional impact), Altered sexual health (Signification of breast, Sexual dysfunction and The significance of cohabitation & relationships), Normality and its meaning (To not fit in and Acceptance and adaptation). The result showed that perceived body image had an impact on sexual health and sexuality. Negative body image greatly impacted feelings of attractiveness and identity loss. A strive for normality emerged. Different coping strategies were used to accept and adapt to the changes the mastectomy brought. Conclusion: Mastectomy has a negative effect on perceived sexuality in women. However, it is important to note that not all women shared the experience and that some women found it easier to adapt to the mastectomy and the altered body. Each experience is individual and unique.

Full textBackground: Breast cancer is an international growing illness which occurs mostly in women, symptoms and side effects from treatments can deprive patients of pleasures they experienced previously. Physical activity leads to a reduction in estrogen levels, elevated estrogen levels are associated with onset of for instance breast cancer. The nurses care actions consist of symptom control, evaluation of symptom-reliving treatment and psychosocial support. With a person-centered approach, the balance of power between caregiver and caretaker can be evened out, and the care-takers autonomy is highly valued. Aim: The aim with this literature review is to describe physical activity as a compliment to the ordinary treatment for breast cancer. Method: Literature review which includes 17 articles with a quantitative approach. Result: Physical activity serves as complement to the ordinary nursing care for persons undergoing breast cancer treatment. Physical activity reduces pain, fatigue, nausea, and stress. Additionally, quality of life and energy levels increases, and muscle mass and function are maintained. Conclusion: Physical activity should be included in the ordinary care for persons with breast cancer. Exercise alleviates symptoms and enhances quality of life for persons during breast cancer treatment. Physical activity is a non-pharmacological alternative which reduces some side effects from pharmacological symptomrelieving treatment.

Full textBackground: Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer that affects women. The side effects of treatments are many and stressful and may result in mental illness. Even though the chances for surviving are good women’s mental health are affected. This is, for instance, because of the changed body image after the treatments. The nurse’s aim with the personcentered- care is to include and support the patient. Aim: To describe what factors contribute to a changed body perception after breast cancer treatment. Method: A literature review based on 15 scientific articles. Results: Women’s changed perception of her body can be described in four categories, and these are; visible changes of the body, mental health, sexuality, need for support. Conclusion: There were many factors that changed the body image after breast cancer treatment. The side effects of the treatments affected women both physically and psychologically. Losing one or two breasts and hair loss caused the female identity to suffer. The physical changes affected mental health and women were at risk of depression and anxiety. Many experienced a dissatisfaction with their body and felt less attractive to their partner, which in turn led them to distance themselves from sexual activities. There was a great need for support and information from healthcare professionals.

Full textBreast cancer is a common disease today and arises many strong feelings. The aim of this study was to bring clarity and better understanding about how female and male breast cancer patients experience and cope with their disease, in order to find out how we as nurses can give satisfying care to these patients. The literature review was based on eleven scientific articles with qualitative alignment that were revised according to the Polit et al (2001) criteria’s. The theoretical reference frame was the description of the traumatical crisis process presented by Cullberg (1992). The results were divided into seven themes, under which the experiences and coping strategies of the patients were outlined. These themes were emotional experiences, identity & body image, inner strength, practical support, new life perspectives, the future and care. Among the most important and most salient experiences were the importance of the emotional support and the role of perceiving information in order to be able to cope with the situation. Here a gender difference was found.The experience and the coping of breast cancer is very complex and individual, hence the care must be adjusted thereby. The results can increase the nurses understanding and knowledge of the experiences and the coping of the female and male breast cancer, which could contribute to a better care with a holistic view of the patient.

Full textBakgrund: Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancerformen bland kvinnor och varje år får fler än 8000 en bröstcancerdiagnos i Sverige. Överlevnaden i Sverige är åtta av tio drabbade och antal dödsfall minskar varje år. Trots detta är bröstcancer, efter lungcancer, den cancerform som orsakar flest dödsfall bland kvinnor. Vid mastektomi avlägsnas hela bröstet, vilket leder till en kroppslig förändring. Detta kan påverka kvinnor i olika aspekter såsom den psykiska hälsan, kroppsbild, sexualitet och livskvalitén. Syfte: Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka kvinnors upplevelser av kroppsbild, livskvalité, sexuella-och psykiska hälsa efter att ha genomgått en mastektomi samt jämföra upplevelserna av kroppsbild, livskvalité, sexuella-och psykiska hälsa mellan kvinnor som genomgått en mastektomi och kvinnor som genomgått en bröstrekonstruktion. Metod: Studien genomfördes som en allmän litteraturöversikt. Databasen PubMed användes för informationssökning. Urvalet resulterade i tretton kvantitativa och fem kvalitativa artiklar. Resultat: Huvudteman som presenterades var depression & ångest som visade att kvinnor efter en mastektomi uppvisade en högre grad av depressions-och ångestsymptom än kvinnor som genomgått en bröstrekonstruktion. Kroppsbild redogör att kvinnor hade sämre självbild efter att ha opererat bort bröstet än innan operationen. Sexualitet klargör att kvinnors sexuella- och partnerrelationer påverkades negativt på grund av det förändrade kroppsutseendet. Livskvalité, beskriver att kvinnor hade sämre självförtroende, emotionell stabilitet samt social funktion vilket orsakade en sämre livskvalité Slutsats: Kvinnors erfarenheter och upplevelser efter genomgången mastektomi är högst individuella och varierande. Resultatet i denna studie belyser dock många negativa erfarenheter och välbefinnande. Forskning inom området ger sjuksköterskor och annan vårdpersonal kunskapen om hur psykosocialt och emotionellt lidande pre- och postoperativt kan förebyggas i samband med mastektomi.

Full textBakgrund: Bröstcancer är idag den vanligaste formen av cancer bland kvinnor. Det har visat sig att sjukdomen kan resultera i psykisk lidande för dessa kvinnor. Syfte: Att undersöka vilka former av psykiskt stöd för psykisk ohälsa som upplevs mest effektiva hos kvinnor med bröstcancer. Metod: Denna studie genomfördes som en deskriptiv litteraturstudie. 15 originalartiklar användes för att svara på frågeställningarna. För att finna relevanta artiklar använde författarna databaserna CINAHL och PubMed. Resultat: Samtliga studier som undersökte olika former av avslappning visade någon form av positiv effekt på någon av variablerna ångest depression och stress. Av tre artiklar som berörde fysiska träningsinterventioner hittade författarna i en artikel förbättringar gällande oro och depression. Studien som undersökte massage som metod för att främja den psykiska hälsan visade på förbättring inom livskvalité och avslappning. Fyra studier granskade effekten av Kognitiv Beteende Terapi (KBT). Av dessa visade tre att KBT hade positiv effekt på den psykiska hälsan. Fyra studier prövade huruvida stödgrupper hade effekt. Av dessa visade resultatet i en artikel att denna form av intervention kunde minska tillbakahållna känslor. Ingen av de studier som undersökte utbildningsinterventioner visade på effekter. Slutligen berörde två av artiklarna telefonrådgivning. I en artikel visades en kortsiktig positiv effekt på humöret bland kvinnorna, denna effekt hade dock avtagit vid senare uppföljning. Slutsats: Denna studie gav inget tydligt svar på vad som främjar psykisk hälsa vid bröstcancerdiagnos. Resultatet visade ändå på att vissa interventioner hade viss effekt och bör därmed undersökas närmare.

Full textO adoecimento por câncer constitui-se em uma experiência humana que, por seus significados socioculturais e estigmas, remete ao enfrentamento de questões de ordem existenciais e a busca por recursos que ajudem a encontrar sentido para o que está sendo vivido. A atenção voltada para a dimensão espiritual torna-se cada vez mais necessária à prática assistencial na saúde, uma vez que a ciência, aos poucos, reconhece o papel fundamental da espiritualidade na dimensão do ser humano. O estudo tem como pergunta de pesquisa: qual a percepção das mulheres com diagnóstico de câncer de mama em relação a espiritualidade como estratégia de enfrentamento da doença? O objetivo geral foi conhecer a percepção das mulheres com diagnóstico de câncer de mama em relação à espiritualidade como estratégia de enfrentamento da doença. E, os objetivos específicos, foram conhecer os significados que a mulher com câncer de mama atribui à espiritualidade; identificar as estratégias relacionadas à espiritualidade utilizadas no enfrentamento da doença/tratamento; compreender como as mulheres com diagnóstico de câncer de mama percebem o cuidado prestado pela enfermagem no que se refere a espiritualidade. Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva, com abordagem qualitativa, orientada pelo referencial teórico da Teoria do Cuidado Transpessoal, realizada no serviço de oncologia de um hospital de ensino de um município do interior do estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Os dados foram coletados no período de março a junho de 2015, mediante entrevista semiestruturada, com 14 mulheres que realizavam tratamento oncológico, após a aprovação pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa com Seres Humanos sob o parecer Nº 991.305. A análise dos dados foi realizada conforme Análise de Conteúdo, que possibilitou a elaboração de quatro categorias, que abordam a dimensão da mulher com câncer de mama e seus significados, a força que impulsiona enfrentar as adversidades da doença, espiritualidade e autoestima, a enfermagem e o cuidado espiritual. Os resultados evidenciaram que a espiritualidade foi uma estratégia de enfrentamento efetiva diante do adoecimento por câncer de mama. Conclui-se que este estudo poderá suscitar reflexões que possibilitem repensar as práticas desenvolvidas pela enfermagem no que tange a espiritualidade das pessoas com quem interage, além de contribuir para fortalecer a prática em relação ao cuidado da dimensão espiritual.

Full textIntroduction: Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women. Many of the affected women react to the diagnosis with strong feelings and the treatment is tough and often unpleasant getting through. The women need support from relatives, health-care personnel and other women with or who have had breast cancer. The relatives are a big source for support, but the support from health care personnel is also of great importance. Support can be divided into emotional, material and informational support. Aim: To describe breast cancer diagnosed women’s experience of emotional support from caring personnel. Method: A literature review was performed according to Friberg. Nine studies with a qualitative approach were collected and analysed. Findings: The result shows that there were many different factors who affected if the women experienced getting emotional support or not. Eight categories emerged in the analysis: the caring relation, continuity, confidence and trust, respect and individuality, presence, sensitibity, time and personal characteristics. Discussion: The result is compared to Joyce Travelbee’s theory that is connected to much of what was found in the result, for example the importance of recognizing the patient as an individual. The discussion highlights amongst other things the matter of seeing the many different dimensions of the patient and how the pressure and lack of time affects the health caring staff’s ability to give emotional support. Keywords: breast cancer, emotional support, experience, nursing care, support, women.

Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa sobre uma tecnologia de cuidado de enfermagem no controle do câncer do colo do útero e mama, baseado no modelo do coletivo feminista de sexualidade e saúde na atenção primária à saúde. A aplicação desta tecnologia de cuidado de enfermagem possibilitou maior autonomia da mulher sobre sua história e seu próprio corpo, preocupou-se com o conhecimento do corpo como um dos elementos centrais para a saúde e pode ser vivenciada pela mulher, de forma menos invasiva. Os objetivos da pesquisa foram descrever uma tecnologia de cuidado de enfermagem no controle do câncer do colo do útero e da mama, baseado no modelo do coletivo feminista de sexualidade e saúde; avaliar a tecnologia de consulta de enfermagem à mulher, no controle do câncer do colo do útero e da mama, em relação ao medo, vergonha e tensão sentidos por ela e discutir a participação da mulher na estratégia de consulta de enfermagem no controle do câncer do colo do útero e da mama, quanto à sua autonomia e satisfação com o atendimento. Foram entrevistadas vinte mulheres que concordaram em participar da estratégia de consulta da pesquisa, em uma unidade de atenção primária à saúde, em um município da Zona da Mata Mineira. Através da análise de conteúdo de Bardin, foram evidenciadas 02 categorias: a) A desapropriação do corpo feminino e b) A enfermagem solidária através da estratégia de consulta. A partir da vivência das mulheres, ressaltamos que a estratégia demonstrou ser mais adequada e propiciadora do desenvolvimento do protagonismo das mulheres, do seu direito como sujeito da assistência. Propõe-se uma “enfermagem solidária”, que pressupõe romper com o modelo biomédico. Cuidar da mulher nesta perspectiva vai além daquilo que se vê, se escuta e se toca. Significa reapropriar a mulher de seu corpo e reaproximar a enfermeira da mulher que está atendendo, priorizando outras dimensões do ser humano e de seus valores, como o respeito, a compaixão, a solidariedade e principalmente o diálogo.
This is a qualitative research on a technology of nursing care in the control of cancer of the cervix and breast cancer, based on the model of the feminist collective of sexuality and health in primary health care. The application of nursing care technology allowed greater autonomy of women about their history and their own body, was concerned with the knowledge of the body as a central element for health and can be experienced by women, a less invasive manner. The research objectives were to describe a technology for nursing care in the control of cervical and breast cancer, based on the model of the feminist collective of sexuality and health; evaluate the technology for nursing consultation to women in the control of cancer cervical and breast cancer, in relation to fear, shame and tension felt by her and discuss the participation of women in the nursing consultation strategy in the control of cervical and breast cancer, as their autonomy and satisfaction with care. Twenty women who agreed to participate in the research strategy consultation in a unit of primary health care, in a county of Zona da Mata Mining were interviewed. Through content analysis of Bardin, were found 02 categories: a) the expropriation of the female body b) The joint nursing through the query strategy. From the women's lives, we emphasize that the strategy proved to be most suitable and propitious development of the role of women, their rights as a subject of care. We propose a "supportive nursing", which requires breaking with the biomedical model. Taking care of the woman in this perspective goes beyond what we see, we hear and touch. Means reappropriate the wife of his body and reconnecting woman nurse who is listening, prioritizing other human dimensions and their values, such as respect, compassion, solidarity and especially dialogue.
