Descripción de los síntomas de alarma en las mujeres con cáncer ginecológico
Objective
To describe the presentation of gynecological cancer in primary care, quantifying the presence of alarm symptoms and establishing their relationship with the interval of time until diagnosis and treatment.
Design
Retrospective study of a cohort of women with gynecological cancer.
Placement
Thirty family medicine consultations.
Participants
One hundred thirty-eightwomen (period 2014-2023).
Main measurements
Characteristics of the patients, the care process, and the disease. Time intervals considered: patient, primary care, diagnosis, and total interval.
Results
Most were diagnosed in early stages, except for ovarian cancer. The most frequent presenting symptom in endometrial and cervical cancer was postmenopausal metrorrhagia, in ovarian cancer it was abdominal distension, and in vulvar cancer it was vulvar ulcer. In endometrial cancer, both age and the number of health problems were higher (P=.01) in women with alarm symptoms. In ovarian cancer, alarm symptoms were more frequent (P=.04) in women with higher comorbidity. Overall, 87.1% presented some specific alarm symptoms for each tumor. In ovarian cancer, alarm symptoms were associated with a shorter interval until treatment (P=.04).
Conclusions
Most women with gynecological cancer are diagnosed at early stages, except for ovarian cancer. A high proportion present alarm symptom, related to the interval of time until diagnosis and treatment in ovarian cancer.
期刊介绍:
Atención Primaria es una revista que publica trabajos de investigación relativos al ámbito de la atención primaria de salud. Desde el punto de vista conceptual, Atención Primaria asume el nuevo modelo de atención primaria de salud, orientado no sólo a la curación de la enfermedad, sino también a su prevención y a la promoción de la salud, tanto en el plano individual como en el de la familia y la comunidad. En estos nuevos aspectos que definen el modelo de atención primaria de salud es en los que se centran los trabajos de investigación que publica Atención Primaria, la primera revista de originales española creada para recoger y difundir la producción científica realizada desde los centros de atención primaria de salud sobre cuestiones como protocolización de la asistencia, programas de prevención, seguimiento y control de pacientes crónicos, organización y gestión de la asistencia primaria, entre otros.
