Abstract

We examine the unmet needs for information and support of cancer patients and carers. A questionnaire study was performed among patients (n = 135) and carers (n = 73) at Kuopio University Hospital, Finland. Data are analysed using SPSS 27 by t-test, cross-tabulation and cluster and variance analyses. Patients and carers received less support than information. Older and less-educated individuals and males had more unmet needs. Carers received less information and support than patients. Carers expressed unmet needs particularly when they had limited opportunities to discuss with healthcare professionals. Individual needs of patients and carers should be addressed throughout the cancer care pathway.

癌症患者和照护者对信息和支持的未满足需求：结构化问卷调查研究

我们研究了癌症患者和照护者尚未得到满足的信息和支持需求。我们对芬兰库奥皮奥大学医院的患者（135 人）和照护者（73 人）进行了问卷调查。数据使用 SPSS 27 通过 t 检验、交叉表、聚类分析和方差分析进行分析。患者和照护者获得的支持少于信息。年龄较大、教育程度较低的患者和男性未满足的需求较多。照护者获得的信息和支持少于患者。照护者在与医护人员进行讨论的机会有限的情况下，其需求尤其得不到满足。患者和照护者的个人需求应在整个癌症护理过程中得到满足。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
