A systematic review of qualitative research on the self-management
experience of breast cancer patients
Abstract
Objective: To integrate the qualitative research
on self-management experience of breast cancer patients, and conduct a
systematic review on their self-management experience.
Methods: Using a computer to search a series of
databases such as CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and China Biomedical Database,
systematically collect and integrate qualitative research on the
self-management experience of breast cancer patients, and the search
time is limited to 2010 January to December 2022. The qualitative
research quality evaluation standard of the Joanna Briggs Institute
(JBI) Center for Evidence-Based Health Care in Australia was used as the
evaluation standard of this project to complete the accurate evaluation
of the literature; Meta-analysis was used to complete the effective
integration of the results. Results: A total of
17 literatures were included in this project, and 37 research results
with strong integrity were extracted accordingly. On this basis, 7
different categories were summarized, and 3 integrated results were
obtained, which were experience of maintaining self-management, symptom
recognition, and self-management. Conclusion: In
the different stages of self-management of breast cancer patients,
medical staff should give targeted guidance to help patients obtain good
prognosis. Patient or Public Contribution:
Patients, service users, care-givers, people with lived experience
or members of the public were involved at several stages of the trial,
including the design, management and conduct of the trial, but all the
information was collected from public database. The statement is not
applicable.
