Abstract:
Objective:To explore the mutuality among main caregivers of pancreatic cancer patients with surgery, and its correlations with the perceived social support and resilience.Methods:From March to July 2019, this study selected 150 main caregivers of pancreatic cancer patients with surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University as subjects by convenience sampling. All of patients were investigated with the General Information Questionnaire, the Mutuality Scale (MS) , Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) and the 10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10) . A total of 150 questionnaires were sent out and 144 valid of them were collected.Results:Among 144 main caregivers of pancreatic cancer patients after surgery, the total average score of MS was (2.75±0.73) . Pearson correlation analysis results showed that the mutuality of main caregivers had positive correlations with the perceived social support and resilience with statistical differences ( P<0.05) . Hierarchical regression analysis showed that the genders, income, perceived social support and resilience went into the regression equation; except for the general information, the perceived social support and resilience could explain 24.5% of the variation. Conclusions:Main caregivers of pancreatic cancer patients with surgery have the above medium level of mutuality which has close correlations with the perceived social support and resilience. Medical staff should pay attention to maintaining the positive relations between caregivers and patients so as to promote the physical and mental health of caregivers.
