Abstract

Purpose: This study was to assess relationships among the uncertainty, medical staff¡¯s support, and anxiety perceived by family members with cancer patients while the family members were waiting for their patients undergoing surgery.
Method: The data were collected from the family members of cancer patients who were undergoing surgery in D University Hospital at B city from February 1 to April 12, 2005. The used instruments were the State Anxiety Scale of Spielberger¡¯s(1975) STAI, Mishel¡¯s Uncertainty in Illness Scale (MUIS)(1981), and Relationship Questionnaires (Lee, 1978). The collected data was analyzed by using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson¡¯s coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression.
Results: As the result, the most influential variable explaining anxiety of family members was uncertainty (©¬=0.37), followed by perceived illness state (©¬=-0.27). These two variables simultaneously explained 29.3% of the variance in anxiety.
Conclusion: We suggest to develop a nursing intervention program to reduce the uncertainty through the medical staff¡¯s support and to test its effects.
