Abstract

Objectives: To investigate the need for return-to-work (RTW) support among young adult cancer survivors and identify influencing factors.

Sample & setting: This cross-sectional study included 134 Korean young adult cancer survivors, recruited in two days in April 2022 through an online survey.

Methods & variables: The study measured the need for RTW support, cancer stigma, cancer fatigue, and social support. Analyses included descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation, and stepwise multiple linear regression.

Results: The factors significantly influencing the need for RTW support were cancer type (p < 0.001), occurrence of metastasis or recurrence (p = 0.004), number of cancer treatment types being received (p = 0.007), and cancer fatigue (p = 0.012). These variables explained about 26% of the variance.

Implications for nursing: This study offers important need-oriented information and highlights the need for proactive management of cancer-related fatigue to provide RTW support for young adult cancer survivors.

韩国青年癌症幸存者的重返工作支持需求及其影响因素：一项横断面研究

目的：调查年轻成年癌症幸存者对重返工作（RTW）支持的需求，并确定影响因素。样本和环境：这项横断面研究包括134名韩国年轻成年癌症幸存者，他们是在2022年4月通过在线调查在两天内招募的。方法与变量：研究测量了RTW支持需求、癌症污名、癌症疲劳和社会支持。分析包括描述性统计、Pearson相关和逐步多元线性回归。结果：影响RTW支持需求的因素为肿瘤类型（p < 0.001）、是否发生转移或复发（p = 0.004）、接受肿瘤治疗类型数（p = 0.007）和癌症疲劳（p = 0.012）。这些变量解释了26%的方差。护理启示：本研究提供了重要的以需求为导向的信息，并强调了积极管理癌症相关疲劳的必要性，为年轻成年癌症幸存者提供RTW支持。
