Abstract

Introduction: Neoplastic diseases are the second leading cause of death in developed countries. Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignancy and the second cause of cancer deaths worldwide. Lifestyle and related health behaviors have impact on health condition and course of treatment.

Aim: Evaluation of oncological knowledge and health behaviors of patients with colorectal cancer in relation to social and demographic factors.

Material and methods: The study group consisted of 165 patients with colorectal cancer treated in the period from May 2010 to December 2014 in two centers. The mean age of patients was 61 ± 8.7 years. We rated knowledge of respondents in the field of cancer and health lifestyle with method of diagnostic survey, using the Behavioral Health Inventory by prof. Juczyński.

Results: The general level of knowledge on cancer was low, and the level of severity of health behaviors was average. It has been proven the association between the state of knowledge concerning cancer and readiness to adopt attitudes and healthy behaviors by CRC patients. The level of health practices was significantly higher in people with higher education, in women and in people with a higher knowledge of oncology. Patients had lower levels of mental attitude and eating habits than the standardized value.

Conclusions: The level of knowledge of patients with CRC, which was observed in clinical practice is associated with the severity of health behavior.

[晚期结直肠癌患者化疗期间癌症知识评估及健康促进行为选择]。
在发达国家,肿瘤疾病是导致死亡的第二大原因。结直肠癌是世界上第三大最常见的恶性肿瘤,也是癌症死亡的第二大原因。生活方式和相关的健康行为对健康状况和治疗过程有影响。目的:评价结直肠癌患者肿瘤知识和健康行为与社会人口因素的关系。材料和方法:研究组由2010年5月至2014年12月在两个中心接受治疗的165例结直肠癌患者组成。患者平均年龄61±8.7岁。我们使用Juczyński教授的行为健康量表,采用诊断调查的方法对受访者在癌症和健康生活方式领域的知识进行评分。结果:受访学生对癌症的总体认知水平较低,健康行为严重程度一般。研究表明,结直肠癌患者对癌症的认知水平与他们是否愿意采取健康的态度和行为之间存在关联。受过高等教育的人、妇女和肿瘤学知识较高的人的健康实践水平明显较高。患者的心理态度和饮食习惯水平均低于标准值。结论:临床观察到的结直肠癌患者的知识水平与健康行为的严重程度相关。
