Trajectories of Fear of Cancer Recurrence: A Longitudinal Study on Spouses of Young and Middle-Aged Patients With Breast Cancer Postoperative Chemotherapy.
Objective: Spouses of young and middle-aged patients diagnosed with breast cancer encounter various challenges, among which fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) is particularly prominent. This study aimed to identify distinct FCR trajectories and investigate related factors.
Methods: A longitudinal study was conducted with 230 spouses of patients with breast cancer at a medical college affiliated hospital in China. FCR was assessed at five time points: 1-3 days before the surgery to 7 months after the surgery. A growth mixture model was used to identify latent categories of the FCR developmental trajectory. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test and multiple logistics regression were used to analyze the influencing factors for the FCR trajectories.
Results: Three FCR trajectories were identified: recovery class (RC, 32.2%), gradually improved class (GIC, 53.1%), and high class (HC, 14.7%). The place of residence, chronic disease, primary caregiver, and education influenced the developmental trajectory of FCR in spouses of patients with breast cancer postoperative chemotherapy.
Conclusions: Group heterogeneity in FCR was observed among spouses, mostly at moderate levels. Appropriate psychosocial care should be provided particularly to spouses with lower education levels and chronic conditions and those acting as primary caregivers.
期刊介绍:
Psycho-Oncology is concerned with the psychological, social, behavioral, and ethical aspects of cancer. This subspeciality addresses the two major psychological dimensions of cancer: the psychological responses of patients to cancer at all stages of the disease, and that of their families and caretakers; and the psychological, behavioral and social factors that may influence the disease process. Psycho-oncology is an area of multi-disciplinary interest and has boundaries with the major specialities in oncology: the clinical disciplines (surgery, medicine, pediatrics, radiotherapy), epidemiology, immunology, endocrinology, biology, pathology, bioethics, palliative care, rehabilitation medicine, clinical trials research and decision making, as well as psychiatry and psychology.
This international journal is published twelve times a year and will consider contributions to research of clinical and theoretical interest. Topics covered are wide-ranging and relate to the psychosocial aspects of cancer and AIDS-related tumors, including: epidemiology, quality of life, palliative and supportive care, psychiatry, psychology, sociology, social work, nursing and educational issues.
Special reviews are offered from time to time. There is a section reviewing recently published books. A society news section is available for the dissemination of information relating to meetings, conferences and other society-related topics. Summary proceedings of important national and international symposia falling within the aims of the journal are presented.
