“…Engaging in an active process of evaluating and re-shaping clinical interactions based on women's priorities and needs is paramount. Regardless of disease stage, women will struggle to both adapt to their illness and accept their new life situation [49]. Whether they succeed in this endeavour may depend on the extent to which their cancer-related needs are met.…”

“…High levels of psychological distress have been reported in women with cervical cancer [49] and other gynaecological cancers [50] that may persist even at 5 years post-diagnosis [50]. Managing fear of cancer recurrence remains the single strongest need in the gynaecologic cancer population [3,50,51], yet still the most frequently unaddressed one [3,52].…”

“…Socio-economic and racial factors can thus act as moderators of psychological outcomes and needs in this population. In addition to social reclusion, stigma and embarrassment perceived and/ or experienced by women with cervical cancer -especially those residing in or coming from developing countries with strong cultural influences [49] -can only heighten their psychological distress.…”

“…O imbricamento entre o físico e o emocional revela uma interface refratária aos ajustes de uma terapêutica baseada na braquiterapia. Demonstrou-se aqui, assim como em vários outros estudos, que níveis de ansiedade e depressão (BARROS; LABATE, 2008;MILLER et al, 2003), negação (DING et al, 2015) e incertezas quanto ao futuro da doença (FERRELL et al, 1998) são persistentes e repercutem em sérios problemas quanto a satisfação e o bem-estar físico-emocional. Foram encontrados sintomas, como diarreia e constipação, as quais impactaram negativamente a qualidade de vida no pós-tratamento com radioterapia.…”

“…Após o diagnóstico e o tratamento do câncer ginecológico, ocorre uma tendência natural da fase de negação. Desmentir o vivido, estagnar a realidade ou mudar sua atitude em relação à vida é uma forma de esconder os verdadeiros incômodos da doença (DING et al, 2015). Percebeu-se que a dificuldade em superar tal situação leva-as a relatarem desejo na descontinuidade da vida cotidiana, impossibilidade de elaborar planos futuros, facilidade de verbalizarem dores físicas, numa prática de isolamento momentâneo e incertezas, no processo de desvencilhar-se da doença.…”

Resumo: Introdução: O câncer ginecológico é uma doença que abrange as malignidades do colo uterino, dos ovários, do endométrio e da vagina ou vulva, sendo considerado um problema de saúde pública, visto que há declínio na qualidade de vida (QV). Objetivo: Identificar as implicações físico-emocionais e comparar a qualidade de vida na pré e na pós-braquiterapia. Método: Estudo prospectivo com abordagem qualiquantitativa. Foi realizado no Centro de Pesquisas Oncológicas e foram avaliadas 20 mulheres sobreviventes do câncer ginecológico entre 18 e 70 anos (49,55 ± 16,98). Utilizou-se o instrumento EORTC QLQ -C30 para avaliar a QV e a entrevista semiestruturada com perguntas acerca da problemática. Resultados: As características sociodemográficas demonstraram predominância no diagnostico de câncer de colo de útero, com estadiamento tipo IIB. Com relação à qualidade de vida, observou-se diferença significativa após a braquiterapia nos itens Constipação (p= 0,027) e Diarreia (p= 0,004). Os domínios função física, emocional, cognitiva, social e desempenho de papéis tiveram decréscimo das funções. Os temas construídos a partir da análise das verbalizações foram: 1) alterações físicas: a) lidando com a dor e o sofrimento; b) enfrentando as dificuldades físicas; 2) alterações emocionais: a) superando a ansiedade, medo, angústia e depressão; b) enfrentando as implicações emocionais, e 3) alterações físico-emocionais. Conclusão: As implicações emocionais proporcionam um impacto importante na resposta física. As alterações no estado de saúde em geral e na qualidade de vida destas mulheres após a braquiterapia determinam a necessidade de readequar práticas cotidianas estimuladas por multiprofissionais da saúde.

Background There is limited knowledge on the social and economic impacts of a diagnosis of cervical cancer on women and children in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). Objectives To determine the social and economic impacts associated with cervical cancer among women and children living in LMICs. Search strategy The MEDLINE, PsychInfo, CINAHL, Pais International, and CAB Global Health databases were systematically searched to retrieve studies up to June 2021. Selection criteria Studies were included if they reported on either the social or economic impacts of women or children in a LMIC. Data collection and analysis Data was independently extracted by two co‐authors. The authors performed a quality assessment on all included articles. Main results In all, 53 studies were included in the final review. Social impacts identified included social support, education, and independence. Economic impacts included employment and financial security. No study reported the economic impact on children. Studies that utilized quantitative methods typically reported more positive results than those that utilized qualitative methods. Conclusions Additional mixed‐methods research is needed to further understand the social support needs of women with cervical cancer. Furthermore, research is needed on the impact of a mother's diagnosis of cervical cancer on her children.
