To understand the experiences of parents of children with cancer who come from areas distant from Lima-Peru during the search for cancer treatment for their children.
A descriptive-exploratory qualitative approach study. Focus groups and semi-structured interviews were carried out. The sample consisted of 18 parents who come from remote areas from Lima who attended specialized hospitals. The qualitative analysis was of thematic content, proposed by Minayo.
Three categories emerged: Accessing cancer care in Lima hospitals; Having diverse personal experiences during their child's treatment; and Reporting the socioeconomic and labor impact during their stay in Lima.
Understanding these experiences could help health professionals to implement strategies of socioeconomic support to facilitate access to health services for children with cancer. Hospitals must guarantee the satisfaction of the basic needs of parents.
了解来自秘鲁利马偏远地区的癌症患儿父母在为孩子寻找癌症治疗过程中的体验。
这是一项描述性探索性定性研究。进行了焦点小组和半结构化访谈。样本由 18 名来自利马偏远地区的父母组成,他们在专门的医院就诊。定性分析采用了 Minayo 提出的主题内容分析方法。
出现了三个类别:在利马医院获得癌症治疗;在孩子治疗期间有不同的个人经历;以及报告在利马逗留期间对社会经济和劳动力的影响。
了解这些经历可以帮助卫生专业人员实施社会经济支持策略,以促进癌症患儿获得卫生服务。医院必须保证满足父母的基本需求。
