There are significant issues in the treatment of cancer patients. Despite these issues, there is still room to explore unique lived experiences after survival.
This study aimed to explore the experiences of cancer survivors after chemotherapy.
A descriptive phenomenological study was conducted in Zabol, Iran. A purposeful sample of 15 cancer survivors was selected to gather data using semistructured interviews. Colaizzi's method was used for data analysis.
Four themes were extracted from the interviews. These were altered body image, mood swings, uncertain and dark future, and choosing a solitary lifestyle.
Cancer patients experience various physical, psychological, and social changes including stress, anger, nervousness, despair, worthlessness, depression, social isolation, and even the wish to die after chemotherapy.
癌症患者的治疗存在重大问题。尽管存在这些问题,但在生存后仍有空间探索独特的生活经历。
本研究旨在探讨化疗后癌症幸存者的经历。
在伊朗扎博勒进行了一项描述性现象学研究。通过半结构化访谈,有目的地选取了15名癌症幸存者作为样本以收集数据。采用科莱齐的方法进行数据分析。
从访谈中提取了四个主题。分别是身体形象改变、情绪波动、前途不确定且黯淡以及选择孤独的生活方式。
癌症患者在化疗后会经历各种身体、心理和社会变化,包括压力、愤怒、紧张、绝望、无价值感、抑郁、社会孤立,甚至有想死的愿望。
