Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between postoperative self-image and coping style of patients after breast cancer resection .Methods Totals of 410 patients undergoing breast cancer resection were assessed by using simplified coping style questionnaire ( SCSQ ) and body image after breast cancer questionnaire ( BIBCQ ) .The correlation was then analyzed through Pearson method .Results Totals of 410 questionnaires were distributed , and 391 questionnaires returned , with an effective rate of 95.4%.The total score of postoperative self-image was (81.51 ±21.96).Within the aspects of disease susceptibility , body shame, functional limitation , physical attention dimensions and etc , the highest was disease susceptibility with a score of (29.33 ±7.99), while the lowest was limb attention with a score of (0.98 ±3.90).For the SCSQ, the score of positive coping style was (2.05 ±0.53), and the score of negative coping style was (1.46 ± 0.51).There was an obvious negative correlation between self-image level and positive coping style ( P <0.05).The scores of disease susceptibility , body shame, functional limitation, physical attention dimensions also had significantly negative correlations with positive coping style (P<0.05).Conclusions The level of self-image is low in patients with breast cancer .A more positive coping style can help the patients achieve a better self-image, thus, it can raise the quality of life of patients .
