“…Another explanation: Following the increment of emotional exhaustion and negative mental energy (job burnout) a sense of suspicion is increased among nurses than to try; therefore, this situation leads them to high anxiety and depression and decrease the individual achievements that it firstly reduces a person's health and ultimately reduce their quality of life (34). Results also showed a significant and positive relationship between social support and quality of life that were consistent with the findings of previous studies (17)(18)(19)(20). The results of Paterson and colleagues study (2013) showed that social support had negative and remarkable correlation with quality of life (18).…”

Background: Nurses are responsible for maintaining and improving the health and quality of life of patients. Therefore, it is important to assess the quality of life of nurses in order to improve it. Quality of life is affected by many variables and among them burnout, perceived social support and psychological hardiness are the leading ones. This study aimed at predicting the quality of life of nurses based on job burnout, perceived social support and psychological hardiness. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on nurses working in governmental hospitals in Tehran , 2015. Four-hundred nurses were selected by multistage cluster sampling. The instruments were burnout, perceived social support, psychological hardiness and quality of life questionnaires. The data was analyzed using Pearson correlation and multiple regression model simultaneously. Results:The results showed that the burnout and quality of life of the nurses had a significant and negative relationship (r=-0.39) and the perceived social support (r =0.61) and psychological hardiness (r =0.45) had a positive and significant correlation with quality of life of nurses (P<0.01). In a predictive model of burnout, perceived social support and psychological hardiness could predict 59.3 percent of the changes in quality of life (R2=0.593). Conclusion: According to the results, it is suggested that nursing executives, counselors, therapists and policy makers pay attention to the signs and the effects of these variables , and conduct some appropriate programs for improving the quality of life of nurses.

“…between-person effects (Mehnert et al, 2010;Paterson et al, 2013;Paterson et al, 2014, Zhou et al, 2010aZhou et al, 2010b), and has neglected the importance of within-person experience and change over time. Therefore, existing literature has primarily employed between-subject designs, which only accounts for the variability between study participants.…”

“…Social support for many individuals is an intuitive term that is used to describe help that is received from others in a difficult situation. There is a substantial body of social support literature, as yet there is not a single consensus on the definition of social support (Hupcey, 1998), but an important distinction is that social support is a multi-faceted construct (Paterson et al, 2013). That is to say, social support can be measured as perceived social support and received social support (Cohen et al, 2000;Schwarzer et al, 2003).…”

Purpose: Unmet support needs are prevalent in men affected by prostate cancer. Moreover, little is known about the optimal type of social support, or its mechanism effect between coping and emotional outcome in men affected by this disease to identify areas for clinical intervention. This study aimed to empirically test the propositions of social support theory in "real time" within individual men living with and beyond prostate cancer.Methods: Purposeful sub-sample from a larger prospective longitudinal study of prostate cancer survivors, took part in real time data collection using mobile technology. Self-reports were collected for 31 days prompted by an audio alarm 3 times per day (a total of 93 data entries) for each of the 12 case studies. Electronic data were analysed using time series analysis.Results: Majority of response rates were >90%. Men reported a lack of satisfaction with their support over time. Testing the propositions of social support theory "within individuals" over time demonstrated different results for main effect, moderation and mediation pathways that linked coping and social support to emotional outcome. For two men, negative effects of social support were identified. For six men the propositions of social support theory did not hold considering their within-person data. Conclusion:This innovative study is one of the first, to demonstrate the acceptability of e-health technology in an aging population of men affected by prostate cancer. Collectively, the case series provided mixed support for the propositions of social support theory, and demonstrates that "one size does not fit all". IntroductionProstate cancer is a major health burden in Europe (Jemal et al., 2011). The disease and its treatments have the potential to cause substantial short-and long-term problems for men affected by prostate cancer (Davis et al., 2014). The delicate nature of treatments mean that men with prostate cancer often face a host of difficulties which can negatively affect Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) (van Tol-Geerdink et al., 2013), including physical and psychological problems (CockleHearne et al., 2013;Ream et al., 2008). Toxicities associated with prostate cancer treatments include: urinary (urgency, frequency, incontinence) (Zelefsky et al., 2008), bowel (rectal bleeding, urgency in defecation, diarrhoea, and faecal leakage) (Fransson et al., 2006) and sexual dysfunction (impotence, loss of libido) (Shikanov et al., 2008). Other physical symptoms associated with therapies include: fatigue, weight gain, osteopenia, anaemia, muscle atrophy, gynaecomastia, and hot flushes, and psychological problems including anxiety, depression and loss of cognitive function (Carter et al., 2011). Due to increasing survival rates (Jemal et al., 2011) the number of men dealing with the aftermath consequences of prostate cancer are set to rise, currently 250,000 men in the UK alone (Prostate Cancer UK, 2014).For many patients and family members, a diagnosis of prostate cancer can lead to many ambiguities, such as...

“…Specifically, the narrative synthesis undertook the following steps: data reduction (sub-group classification based on the levels of evidence and the review questions), data comparison (iterative process of making comparisons and identifying relationships) and finally, conclusion and verification (checking primary data sources for accuracy and confirmability). This process has been applied to several systematic reviews including prostate cancer 17,18 .…”

Background: There has been an evolution of various consultation models in the literature. Men affected by prostate cancer can experience a range of unmet supportive care needs. Thus, effective consultations are paramount in the delivery of supportive care to optimize tailored self-management plans at the individual level of need. Objective: The aim of this study is to critically appraise existing models of consultation and make recommendations for a model of consultation within the scope of clinical practice for prostate cancer care. Methods: A systematic review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Statement Guidelines. Electronic databases were searched using a wide range of keywords and free text items to increase the sensitivity and inclusiveness of the searches. Findings were integrated in a narrative synthesis. Results: A total of 1829 articles were retrieved and 17 papers were included. Beneficial features ranged across a number of models that included a person-centered consultation, shared management plans, and safety netting. None of the reviewed models of consultation are suitable for use in prostate cancer care because of a range of limitations and the clinical context in which models were developed. A Cancer Care Consultation Model was informed from critical appraisal of the evidence and expert clinical and service user comment. Conclusion: Further research is needed to empirically test consultation models in routine clinical practice, specifically for advanced cancer specialist nurses. Implications for Practice: The Prostate Cancer Model of Consultation can be used to structure clinical consultations to target self-management care plans at the individual level of need over the cancer care continuum.
