To investigate the need for return-to-work (RTW) support among young adult cancer survivors and identify influencing factors.
SAMPLE & SETTING: This cross-sectional study included 134 Korean young adult cancer survivors, recruited in two days in April 2022 through an online survey.
METHODS & VARIABLES: The study measured the need for RTW support, cancer stigma, cancer fatigue, and social support. Analyses included descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation, and stepwise multiple linear regression.
The factors significantly influencing the need for RTW support were cancer type (p < 0.001), occurrence of metastasis or recurrence (p = 0.004), number of cancer treatment types being received (p = 0.007), and cancer fatigue (p = 0.012). These variables explained about 26% of the variance.
This study offers important need-oriented information and highlights the need for proactive management of cancer-related fatigue to provide RTW support for young adult cancer survivors.
调查年轻成年癌症幸存者对重返工作岗位(RTW)支持的需求,并确定影响因素。
这项横断面研究纳入了134名韩国年轻成年癌症幸存者,于2022年4月通过在线调查在两天内招募。
该研究测量了对RTW支持的需求、癌症污名、癌症疲劳和社会支持。分析包括描述性统计、Pearson相关性分析和逐步多元线性回归。
显著影响对RTW支持需求的因素包括癌症类型(p < 0.001)、转移或复发的发生情况(p = 0.004)、正在接受的癌症治疗类型数量(p = 0.007)和癌症疲劳(p = 0.012)。这些变量解释了约26%的方差。
本研究提供了重要的以需求为导向的信息,并强调了积极管理与癌症相关的疲劳以向年轻成年癌症幸存者提供RTW支持的必要性。
