Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the status quo and influencing factors of support perception of spouses of breast cancer patients, and to provide reference for clinical intervention.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted to facilitate the selection of 180 breast cancer patients who were treated at the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from January 2022 to June 2023. The general information questionnaire, the Perceived Support Scale for Spouses of Breast Cancer Patients, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, the Locke-Wallace Marriage Adjustment Scale, and the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire were used to investigate them. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of perceived support level of spouses of breast cancer patients.Results:A total of 180 patients were admitted ultimately, all of them were females, aged (49.88 ± 8.95) years old. The total score of Perceived Support Scale for Spouses of Breast Cancer Patients was (62.38 ± 6.54) points. The average scores of each dimension from high to low were emotional support (2.70 ± 0.48) points, information support (2.65 ± 0.52) points and actual support (2.51 ± 0.62) points. There were significant differences in the scores of spouse support perception among breast cancer patients with different educational levels, surgical methods and self-care ability ( F=4.08, 17.63, t=2.41, all P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the total score of Perceived Support Scale for Spouses of Breast Cancer Patients was negatively correlated with anxiety score, depression score and disease perception score ( r=-0.388, -0.410, -0.350, all P<0.01), and positively correlated with marital adjustment score ( r=0.692, P<0.01). The results of multiple linear regression showed that education level, surgical method, anxiety, depression, disease perception and marital adjustment were the influencing factors of spouse support perception level of breast cancer patients ( t values were 3.04-4.44, all P<0.05 ), which could explain 54.6 % of the total variation. Conclusions:The level of support perception of spouses of breast cancer patients needs to be improved. Education level, surgical method, anxiety, depression, disease perception and marital adjustment are the influencing factors of patients ′ perception of spouse support level.
