Abstract:
Objective To describe and compare the attitude and actual participation of decision-making regarding nursing care of patients with breast cancer, and to identify the related factors. Methods To investigate 480 cases of inpatients with breast cancer in 3 Grade ⅢA hospitals in Wuhan through questionnaire and self-designed general information questionnaire. Results There were significant differences (χ2=28.3, P<0.01) between the attitude and actual participation of decision making regarding of nursing care. The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that patients with higher education level (B=1.574, P=0.002), less children (B=-2.716, P<0.01) and higher income (B=0.323, P<0.01) , had a more active attitude to participate decision making; patients who were younger (B=-6.001, P=0.015), with higher education level (B=1.643, P=0.000), shorter duration of disease (B=-2.413, P=0.022), and lower degree of TNM stage (B=0.618, P=0.012), actually participated more often in decision making. Conclusions The actual participation was inconsistent with the attitude of decision-making regarding nursing care among patients with breast cancer. And patients′ demographic characters were related to their participation of decision making, which suggested that nurses should make a comprehensive assessment of willingness and capacity of patients′decision-making participation, identify the facilitators and barriers, and take measures to support patients to take an active part in the decision making to improve the quality of nursing care.
