Unmet supportive care needs have been shown to lower the quality of life of cancer patients, including those with gynecological cancer. Therefore, we examined how the unmet supportive care needs might predict the quality of life of gynecology cancer patients under-going therapy. We had a convenience sample of 153 patients from two major cancer hospitals in Jakarta, Indonesia, complete the SCNS-SF34 and EORTC QLQ-30. Analysis showed that unmet supportive care needs predict poorer quality of life (i.e., lower global health status and functional status, and more cancer-related symptoms). This study emphasizes the need for supportive care services in the areas of psychological, physical, and sexuality to be prioritized to improve the patients' quality of life.
未满足的支持性护理需求已被证明会降低癌症患者的生活质量,包括妇科癌症患者。因此,我们研究了未满足的支持性护理需求如何预测接受治疗的妇科癌症患者的生活质量。我们从印度尼西亚雅加达的两家主要癌症医院选取了153名患者作为便利样本,让他们完成支持性护理需求简表(SCNS-SF34)和欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织生活质量核心问卷(EORTC QLQ-30)。分析表明,未满足的支持性护理需求预示着较差的生活质量(即较低的总体健康状况和功能状态,以及更多与癌症相关的症状)。本研究强调需要优先提供心理、身体和性方面的支持性护理服务,以提高患者的生活质量。
