The objective of this study was to examine factors impacting long-term functional outcomes and psychological sequelae in survivors of breast cancer (BC). A clinical assessment and structured interview assessed the impact of BC on participants' (n=85) current activity and restriction in participation, using validated questionnaires: Functional Independence Measure (FIM), Perceived Impact Problem Profile (PIPP) and Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS). Participants showed good functional recovery (median motor FIM score=78). Three-quarters (74%) reported pain, 32% reported upper limb weakness, 31% pain limiting shoulder movement and 29% lymphoedema. One third (32%) reported greatest impact on psychological wellbeing. A substantial number of participants reported high levels of depression (22%), anxiety and stress (19% each). Factors associated with poorer current level of functioning and wellbeing included: younger participants, recent diagnoses, aggressive tumour types, receiving chemotherapy, shoulder limitation due to pain, and lymphoedema. BC survivors require long-term management of psychological sequelae impacting activity and participation.
本研究旨在探讨影响乳腺癌(BC)幸存者长期功能结局和心理后遗症的因素。通过临床评估和结构化访谈,使用经过验证的问卷(功能独立性测量量表(FIM)、感知影响问题量表(PIPP)和抑郁焦虑压力量表(DASS))评估 BC 对参与者(n=85)当前活动和参与受限的影响。参与者表现出良好的功能恢复(中位数运动 FIM 评分为 78)。75%的人报告有疼痛,32%的人报告上肢无力,31%的人报告疼痛限制肩部运动,29%的人报告淋巴水肿。三分之一(32%)的人报告对心理健康的影响最大。相当一部分参与者报告存在较高水平的抑郁(22%)、焦虑和压力(各 19%)。与当前功能水平和健康状况较差相关的因素包括:年龄较小、近期诊断、侵袭性肿瘤类型、接受化疗、因疼痛导致肩部受限以及淋巴水肿。BC 幸存者需要长期管理影响活动和参与的心理后遗症。
