Abstract

Background: BREAST CANCER is one of the most common cancers in the women. Survival of BREAST CANCER patients is long and thus they are involved more time with cancer, complications and consequences. This study examines the SYMPTOMS by treatment type and PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS in a sample of newly diagnosed BREAST CANCER patients.Material and Methods: This survey is a cross-sectional study. Among patients in the Medical Center Seyed Al Shohada Esfahan, a group of BREAST CANCER patients from beginning to end of October-December in 2006 was selected and conducted telephone surveys among participants three months. Results provided in frequency distribution tables and chi square with significance level 0.05 to evaluate the relationship and the deference was used.Results: after completing interviews of 152 BREAST CANCER patients, almost half (48%) had at least one severe symptom (any of the following: nausea/vomiting, arm problems, hot flashes, vaginal dryness, difficulty sleeping) that interfered with her daily functioning or mood. Results showed that older, widowed or never married, and working women were less likely to report severe SYMPTOMS than other women. Numbers of receipt of chemotherapy were positively associated with reporting SYMPTOMS.Conclusion: These findings estimate the prevalence of several mutable SYMPTOMS in BREAST CANCER patients that can be addressed by appropriate treatments. This survey estimate of the probability of SYMPTOMS in women with incident BREAST CANCER can be used to provide patient education about potential outcomes following the treatment of BREAST CANCER. With regard to the characteristics of patients with BREAST CANCER that may need to have a special care, and predict health status of patients after treatment, some programs can be planned to promote quality health care for women suffering from multiple SYMPTOMS.
