Abstract
|
|
|
|
Purpose: This study was to explore the hope structures of the newly diagnosed cancer patients by examining the relationships between hope and the three concepts of ¡®Personal Spirit¡¯, ¡®Risk¡¯ and ¡®Authentic Caring¡¯ which composed the multidimensions of the Nekolaichuk and Bruera¡¯s hope model.
Methods: Data was collected via survey from 32 newly diagnosed cancer patients. The perceived meaning of life (PML) for ¡®personal spirit¡¯, perceived confidence in cure (PCC) for ¡®risk¡¯, and perceived family support (PFS) and perceived support from medical team (PSM) for ¡®authentic caring¡¯ were adapted from the definitions of the concepts in the model. Hope, PML, and PCC were measured with VAS. PFS and PSM were measured with Korean version of ¡®Cobb¡¯s family support scale¡¯, which was modified by Kang. Pearson correlation coefficients were used to identify the relationships among the concepts.
Results: The significant relationships were revealed between hope and PCC (p£¼.001), hope and PML (p£¼.001), PML and PCC (p£¼.001), PFS and PML (p=.030), and PSM and PML (p=.047).
Conclusion: The newly diagnosed cancer patients experience hope in different ways. The cancer patients¡¯ hope immediate after diagnosis, however, is most likely to be experienced as seeking balance between uncertainty about cancer treatment and the meaning of life.
