A mulher e o câncer: a vida após diagnóstico e tratamento oncológico / The woman and the cancer: life after oncologic diagnosis and treatment

Espallargas, Diana Bomeny 16 October 2015 (has links)
O câncer de mama é uma das doenças mais temidas pelas mulheres, por não afetar apenas o corpo anatômico, mas também os aspectos psicossociais da paciente. Na atualidade, é considerada uma enfermidade crônica. Existe um grande número de pessoas que convivem com o câncer, seja em tratamento, seja em remissão ou com controle de sintomas. Esse panorama exige da Psicologia uma atuação mais eficiente, específica, interessada em compreender o que leva os pacientes a maiores dificuldades diante das diferentes etapas do tratamento. Considerada a inexistência de uma teoria própria para a Psico-Oncologia, na análise desta pesquisa, é utilizada a proposta teórica de Donald Woods Winnicott, para auxiliar na compreensão e interpretação dos relatos de mulheres que convivem com a doença oncológica. Esta pesquisa propõe-se a investigar as repercussões psicológicas de pacientes em primeira remissão de câncer de mama. O interesse por este estudo surge a partir da prática como psicóloga, na especialidade de Mastologia. Diversas pacientes são encaminhadas para o ambulatório de Psicologia, com impactos psicológicos que perduram além da presença da doença. O estudo é do tipo transversal descritivo, com método misto. A amostra é composta por oito pacientes que realizam tratamento oncológico na Irmandade da Santa Casa de Misericórdia de São Paulo. O procedimento para a coleta de dados consistiu na aplicação de uma ficha sociodemográfica e na realização de uma entrevista semidirigida, na Escala Hospitalar de Ansiedade e Depressão (HAD) e na Escala de Desesperança Beck (BHS). Este trabalho conclui que o término de um período de tratamento não coincide com o fim das preocupações com a doença. E, ainda que pese a relevância da Psico-Oncologia para o bem-estar dos pacientes com câncer, esta pesquisa considera necessária uma fundamentação teórica, que permita contextualizar o indivíduo e promova o conhecimento de sua totalidade, além das repercussões esperadas no adoecimento oncológico. Observa-se a importância da avaliação psicológica para compreender como essa paciente vivencia o câncer de mama, a partir de sua experiência e vida anterior. Este estudo pretende avançar nos temas da Psico-Oncologia e fornecer subsídios para profissionais da área da Saúde que tratam pacientes com câncer de mama / Breast cancer is one of the most feared diseases by women, because it affects not only the body anatomy but also the psychosocial aspects of the patient. At present, it is considered a chronic illness. There are a large number of people living with cancer, either in treatment, either in remission or in symptoms control. This scenario requires from Psychology a more efficient and specific approach, more interested in understanding what leads patients to greater difficulties on the different stages of treatment. Given the lack of a specific theory for Psycho-Oncology, the analysis of this research uses the theoretical proposal of Donald Woods Winnicott to assist in the understanding and interpretation of reports of women living with cancer. This research intends to investigate the psychological repercussions of patients in first remission of breast cancer. The interest behind this study arises from the practice as psychologist in the Mastology specialty. Several patients are sent to the Psychology clinic, with psychological impacts that endure beyond the presence of the disease. This is a cross-sectional descriptive study, with mixed methods approach. The sample consists of eight patients undergoing cancer treatment in Irmandade da Santa Casa de Misericórdia of São Paulo. The procedure for data collection consisted of the application of a socio-demographic form and the conduction of a semi-directed interview, following the Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD) Scale and the Beck Hopelessness Scale (BDS). This paper concludes that the end of a treatment period does not coincide with the end of the concerns with the disease. And, despite the relevance of Psycho-Oncology for the well-being of cancer patients, this research considers necessary a theoretical foundation that contextualizes the individual and promotes the understanding of her entirety, in addition to the expected consequences of the oncologic illness. It is noted the importance of a psychological assessment to understand how this patient experiences breast cancer, based on her past experience. This study aims to advance Psycho-Oncology themes and provide valuable input to Health professionals who treat patients with breast cancer

Psychoonkologische Belastungen bei gastrointestinalen Tumorpatienten

Hirth, Ruth 14 December 2017 (has links)
Gastrointestinale Tumorpatienten leiden bei ihrer Akutaufnahme im Krankenhaus und in der sich anschließenden Chemotherapie unter somatischen, psychischen und sozialen Belastungen, die sie psychoonkologisch behandlungsbedürftig erscheinen lassen. Bei 60 % dieser Patienten wurde ein solcher Behandlungsbedarf festgestellt. Das Anliegen der Arbeit war es, neben der Ermittlung des psychoonkologischen Betreuungsbedarfs, die Teilnahmebereitschaft dieser Patienten an einer psychoonkologischen Intervention festzustellen und zwei unterschiedliche Therapieverfahren (kognitiv-verhaltenstherapeutisch ausgerichtete Gesprächstherapie und Entspannungstherapie in Form einer progressiven Muskelrelaxation) mit einer Kontrollgruppe (Darreichung von Informationsmaterial über das Krankheitsbild) zu vergleichen. Es konnte ein positiver Effekt der Intervention, besonders der Gesprächstherapie, auf die Reduktion der Angst und Depression bei hoch belasteten Tumorpatienten nachgewiesen werden. Der Betreuungsbedarf derjenigen Patienten, die nur Informationsmaterial über die bösartige Krankheit erhielten, veränderte sich dagegen in der Zeit ihrer Chemotherapie nicht. Verlaufsabhängig konnte gezeigt werden, dass die Veränderung des psychoonkologischen Betreuungsbedarfs bereits kurz nach der Intervention einsetzt. Es gab aber auch Patienten, die erst im Verlauf der Intervention während der Chemotherapie einen psychoonkologischen Betreuungsbedarf entwickelten, den sie zu Beginn der Untersuchung nicht hatten. Auch diese Patienten konnten durch die psychotherapeutischen Interventionsmaßnahmen erfolgreich behandelt werden. / Gastrointestinal cancer patients who are hospitalized and receiving chemotherapy suffer from somatic, psychological, and social stresses that can be counteracted with psycho-oncological treatment. In fact, 60% of this population has been found to be in need of such services. The aim of this study was to determine how many patients in need of these services would be willing to participate in a psychosocial intervention, and to compare the outcomes of groups receiving two different therapeutic approaches (cognitive behavioral talk therapy and relaxation therapy in the form of a progressive muscle relaxation) with those of a control group, who were simply given written materials about their illness that included information on relevant psychosocial issues. The interventions, especially the talk therapy, were observed to have a positive effect on alleviating depression and anxiety in highly burdened cancer patients. The patients who only received written information about their disease showed no changes in the degree to which they needed psycho-oncological support over the time they were receiving chemotherapy. While some patients experienced improvements soon after the interventions had begun, there were also cases of patients who hadn’t initially exhibited a need for psycho-oncological support but later came to develop this need over the course of undergoing chemotherapy. These patients were also successfully treated through the psychotherapeutic interventions.

A MULTI-METHOD DESIGN. / FROM THE PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT TO THE SUPPORTIVE-EXPRESSIVE GROUP THERAPY FOR WOMEN WITH BREAST CANCER AND THEIR CAREGIVERS. A MULTI-METHOD DESIGN

COSTA, GIULIO 03 March 2008 (has links)
Il presente lavoro di tesi si colloca all'interno di un più ampio programma di intervento clinico per pazienti oncologici. Facendo riferimento ad una cornice teorica basata sul modello relationship-centered care, l'obiettivo di tale programma di intervento è quello di ricercare ed attivare modalità di coping diadico funzionali per fronteggiare la malattia oncologica attraverso i quali si articola questa ricerca, vogliono esplorare tre modalità di coping e caregiving: individuale, diadico e di gruppo. Nel primo studio verranno indagate le strategie di coping e di adattamento interpersonale di donne con cancro al seno, e se tali variabili sono in grado di predire l'adesione ad un trattamento clinico che implichi il paziente medesimo ed un caregiver da lui scelto. Il secondo studio sarà dedicato all'assesssment diadico, dove le coppie formate da paziente e caregiver saranno descritte in funzione di specifiche variabili quali la depressione, l'ottimismo e le caratteristiche di personalità; a questo proposito verrà indagato se tali tipologie di coppia sono in grado di predire lo stile di coping del paziente. Il terzo studio, di processo, è centrato sull'efficacia di un intervento clinico di gruppo in cui sono coinvolti i pazienti e i loro caregiver. / This dissertation examines the psychological assessment for women with breast cancer and their chosen caregivers. It will be wholly presented the longitudinal research design in which the three studies of this dissertation are included. The first study aims not only to standardize the sampling procedure, but it also has the clinical purpose to verify whether coping strategies and interpersonal adjustment preedict end moderate the acceptance to a Supportive-Expressive Group Therapy (SEGT). In the second study the unit of analysis is the couple, which allows for a more accurate description of dyadic coping processes. It will be described and examined specifics couple's typologies or couple matching depending on symptoms and psychological factors such as, life orientations, depression and personality traits. The third study is totally centred on the SEGT. It will be described the nature of intervention and the structure of each session, exploring how the contents and the styles of the therapeutic action change.

Sexualidade e sexuação: um estudo psicanalítico com homens penectomizados por câncer de pênis / Sexuality and sexuation: a psychoanalytic study on penectomized men due to penile cancer.

We perceived that there was dissonance between these men‟s discourse and that one advanced by medical community and psycho-oncologists, centered mainly on sexual functioning as supported by anatomy and physiology. That discrepancy aroused our desire to tackle the issue by means of a master‟s research considering the possibilities of improving with this work a more coherent design for the follow-up of the patients and their experiences related to a serious damage sustained. Our general objective was to evaluate the impact of penectomy on male sexuality; and, as specific objectives to identify possible alternatives found by patients to fulfill the satisfaction drive in face of penile absence, and ascertain where the reflecting impact would end considering virility anchorage points. Leaning on analytical techniques, we tried to listen to these men, avoiding directing their speeches, considering that this was not psychoanalytical sessions. We tried to establish a more coherent design between our research and psychoanalytical practice, a privileged tool adopted by psychoanalytical research if one considers the meaning of this tool as developed by Freud and Lacan. We heard six subjects during their post-surgical evaluation visits, all of them referred by the Urological Service from the Cancer Hospital of the State of Ceará, where we developed our research. The time between surgical procedure and our encounter with subjects ranged from 10 to 36 months, mean age of them being 60.5 years. After each encounter, we took notes of the subjects‟ speeches, and later presented them as a clinical sketch. Thus, we kept ourselves tuned to major issues inherent to patients‟ subjectivities and not to previous knowledge that we could have about those values. As upshots of our investigative work, we can highlight the dissociation between love and desire in the amorous lives of subjects; the struggle of them to rebuild their virile image in face of female counterpart and other men, lacking as they were the strong imaginary force provided by anatomy; the trend to elaborate on life‟s meaninglessness as a result from disease and surgery preventing them from exerting their virility in relation to other women but the wife; the absence of “sexual life” for those who maintain a penile stump, thus disputing the medical knowledge that propounds existence of a capability for sexual pleasure by patients who underwent partial penectomy. We concluded that by means of a psychoanalytical hearing technique it was possible to assess from the subjects‟ discourse that sexuality presents itself to a certain extent resistant to rehabilitating models based solely on its functional dimension, and, therefore, restricted to patient behavior in relation to the sexual act. This disclosed the importance of a more extensive work with those patients without restricting itself to pedagogical interventions, but aiming at making patients elaborate on their loss and help them tackle in a symbolic way their new reality, including bodily configuration. / Essa pesquisa resultou das inquietações provocadas por nossa prática clínico-hospitalar com homens portadores de câncer peniano submetidos à amputação cirúrgica do pênis. Percebemos, quanto a isso, a existência de uma dissimetria entre o discurso desses homens e aquele sustentado pela medicina e pela psico-oncologia, o qual é centrado, sobretudo, no funcionamento sexual amparado na anatomia e fisiologia. Essa não-coincidência nos despertou o desejo de problematizar essa questão em uma pesquisa de mestrado, tendo em vista as possibilidades de favorecer em nosso trabalho, junto a essa equipe, uma maior coerência entre o acompanhamento desses pacientes e suas experiências para com esse dano real sofrido. Nosso objetivo geral foi investigar o impacto da penectomia na sexualidade masculina; e os específicos, identificar possíveis saídas encontradas pelo sujeito para a satisfação pulsional na ausência do pênis e verificar os destinos desse impacto em relação aos pontos de ancoragem da virilidade e seus respectivos deslocamentos. Para tanto, procuramos, na medida do possível, escutar esses homens a partir da técnica analítica, abstendo-nos de dirigirmos suas falas, embora não se tratasse estritamente de uma psicanálise. Destarte, procuramos estabelecer uma maior coerência entre a nossa pesquisa e a clínica psicanalítica, espaço privilegiado da pesquisa psicanalítica no sentido que lhe é dado por Freud e Lacan. Escutamos seis sujeitos, por ocasião de suas revisões pós-cirúrgicas, oriundos do Serviço de Urologia do Hospital do Câncer do Ceará – ICC, local onde se deu a nossa prática para com eles. O tempo decorrido desde a cirurgia até o encontro conosco variou de dez meses a três anos, e a média de idade das pessoas atendidas foi de 60,5 anos. Após cada encontro, as falas dos sujeitos foram anotadas e, posteriormente, relatadas sob a forma de vinheta clinica. Assim, mantivemo-nos fiéis aos significantes por eles produzidos, inerentes às suas subjetividades e não a um saber prévio a elas. Quanto aos resultados obtidos, destacamos: a dissociação entre amor e desejo presente na vida amorosa dos sujeitos pesquisados; o confronto com a tarefa de reconstruir a imagem viril, perante a mulher e os outros homens, sem o sustentáculo imaginário fornecido pela anatomia; a tendência de elaborar o sem sentido da doença e da cirurgia atribuindo-as ao exercício da virilidade junto a outras mulheres, que não a esposa; e a ausência de “vida sexual” para os que ainda possuem o coto peniano, contrariando o que preconiza o saber médico quanto à capacidade de gozo sexual dos pacientes parcialmente penectomizados. Concluímos que através de uma escuta psicanalítica foi possível perceber que, no discurso desses sujeitos, a sexualidade se mostra, de certo modo, refratária aos modelos reabilitadores restritos à dimensão funcional da sexualidade e, portanto, redutíveis ao comportamento dos mesmos quando do ato sexual. Isso evidenciou a relevância de um trabalho mais abrangente para com eles, não restrito a intervenções pedagógicas, com o intuito de fazer com que eles elaborem a perda sofrida e possam lidar de forma simbólica com a sua nova realidade, inclusive corporal.

Změna kvality života žen s diagnostikovaným karcinomem prsu / The change in quality of life with women diagnosed breast cancer

HOLANOVÁ, Gabriela January 2008 (has links)
Professional treatises and articles in commercial media having breast carcinoma in the heading characterize it mostly as an epidemiologically serious phenomenon. This fact cannot be doubted regarding to occurrence of this carcinoma disorder of women (in minimal cases of men). At present the patients become co-coordinators of the treatment in far bigger rate than they used to. Studies and practical experience in this context show that only quantitative aspects of life like the length are not the determined ones for the patient, but more and more patients prefer quality of the survival. Traditional medicine under the pressure of such findings tends to modify treatment procedures in relation with keeping certain quality of life of oncological patients. That is the reason why traditional medicine in the objectives of psychooncology specialization maps the rate of such level, searches preferences of the patients in context of type of the carcinoma, the stage of the disease, individual emotional attitudes etc. Psychooncology becomes an equal partner to radiology, surgery, pathology, oncology and psychology itself in terms of help patients. The possibility to provide psychooncological investigation in the centre of diagnosis and treatment of breast carcinoma of women Mamografie Nemocnice Písek a.s. and to process the data by the form of diploma work seemed purposeful in this case. In the theoretical part initial conditions of breast carcinoma by traditional medicine were defined {--} diagnosis, cure and consecutive treatment. Common emotional maps while facing cancer diagnosis were defined. Methods of determination quality of life of patients in historical and contemporary trends were mentioned. The selected methodology was described by the form of partially anonymous questionnaires and investigative file of 128 women was characterized. The aim of this work was to search the women with diagnosis of breast carcinoma and development of their partnerships, relationships in extended family, inter - personal relationships at work and to compare quantifiable parameters with the time before setting the diagnosis. Mapping somatic (tiredness, pain, insomnia, digestive problems) and psychosomatic factors determining quality of life of sick women was the major axis of searching and investigation. These aims were applied to defined hypotheses which dealt with goals mentioned in the context of contemporary state of comprehension to help people with oncological diagnosis: breast carcinoma is not only serious somatic problem but also psychosocial issue although psychooncology is not the specialization systematically incorporated into the complex oncological solution of patients at the moment. Dates result in the fact that the factors which contribute most to the quality of life concerning to somatic influences are negatively felt tiredness followed by pain afterwards. The dominant psychical influences include depression, anxiety and insomnia. In psychosocial sphere social support is unambiguously dominantly important for quality of life and according to the literature it can contribute even to the length of survival. Following the data, lucid absence of psychooncological help in early stages after detected disorder and during contingent recovery seemed insufficient. The diploma work was not purposeless. There was a deep interest and support of all medical staff of the mammography centre. If we succeed to include psychooncological intervention into a set of conditions asserted in the horizon of treatment of breast cancer, then the data will daily contribute to help of sick women. By generalization it is possible to outline the way in understanding the complex treatment and solving further oncological diagnoses and procedures.

"A pessoa com tumor cerebral e seus familiares em grupo de sala de espera: investigação da experiência vivida". / Brain tumor patients and family members in a waiting room group: investigation of experience.

Danilo Saretta Verissimo 16 June 2005 (has links)
É recente a preocupação com as experiências dos portadores de tumor cerebral e as de seus familiares. O intenso impacto físico e psicossocial da doença sobre os pacientes e as repercussões em seu meio familiar, as adversidades do tratamento e o prognóstico desfavorável traçam um quadro muito severo, até mesmo em comparação com outros tipos de câncer. Neste contexto, o objetivo do presente trabalho é realizar uma aproximação compreensiva às experiências vividas por pessoas com tumor cerebral e pelos seus familiares. Os colaboradores da pesquisa, pacientes com diferentes diagnósticos de tumor cerebral e seus acompanhantes, freqüentaram sessões de grupo de sala de espera no Ambulatório de Neurocirurgia Oncológica do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto – USP. Para constituir o material discursivo, base da tarefa compreensiva, sete sessões de grupo foram gravadas em áudio e, posteriormente, transcritas integralmente. A orientação, em questões de método, segue uma perspectiva qualitativa em psicologia fundamentada na fenomenologia e as reflexões sobre o vivido fundamentam-se no pensamento de Maurice Merleau-Ponty. Na compreensão dos relatos analisados, duas questões ganharam evidência. Primeiramente, a de que a experiência do adoecimento para os pacientes, e decerto para os familiares, é marcada pelo sentido de que a vida presente é muito diferente da de outrora. Há como que um choque entre o eu-corpo atual e o eu-corpo passado. Em segundo lugar, é notável a restrição pessoal que marca esta experiência do enfermo. Tal restrição revela-se nas perturbações da motricidade, da linguagem e da sexualidade; nos temores e angústias que o assaltam; nas relações estabelecidas em família, marcadas por uma superproteção que cerceia e pela dependência em relação aos cuidados do outro; e nas experiências com o meio social extra-familiar que despertam vergonha e o ímpeto de se isolar. Quanto aos familiares, a sua experiência é pautada, sobretudo, no esforço para oferecer um cuidado que favoreça o bem-estar da pessoa enferma. Contudo, os cuidadores vivenciam uma intensa carga de preocupações e temores que os levam a uma atitude, por vezes, superprotetora. Ademais, os familiares da pessoa portadora de tumor cerebral também experienciam perdas pessoais e um grande desgaste físico e emocional. Alguns elementos da filosofia de Merleau-Ponty possibilitaram a elaboração e o enriquecimento das compreensões anteriormente destacadas. Somos um corpo dirigido incessantemente para o mundo e este corpo que somos não é o corpo do qual se fala no âmbito do conhecimento biomédico, mas um corpo fenomenal, o corpo vivido. Por conseguinte, nos casos mais graves de tumor cerebral, o movimento da pessoa em direção ao mundo pode ser severamente prejudicado. Destaca-se, ainda, a noção de que são construídas atitudes frente ao adoecimento, ou seja, movimentos do ser no mundo regidos por uma estrutura de conjunto existencial que contém, de maneira essencial, o acontecimento orgânico limitante. Por fim, explorou-se a idéia de que qualquer atitude frente à doença mobiliza todas as dimensões do ser, tendo sido abordadas, mais especificamente, a temporalidade e o ser com o outro na experiência dos colaboradores deste estudo. / Preoccupations with the experiences of brain tumor patients and their family members are recent. The disease’ intense physical and psychosocial impact on patients and the repercussions for their family environment, the adversities of treatment and the unfavorable prognosis result in a very serious picture, even in comparison with other types of cancer. In this context, this study aims to understand the experiences of brain tumor patients and their family members. The research collaborators, who were patients with different brain tumor diagnoses and their companions, attended waiting room group sessions at the Oncological Neurosurgery Outpatient Clinic of the University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto Medical School Hospital das Clínicas. For the discourse material, which formed the base for the comprehension task, seven group sessions were audio-taped and fully transcribed. A qualitative method was adopted, using a phenomenology-based psychology, while reflections on the experience were based on the ideas of Maurice Merleau-Ponty. In understanding the analyzed reports, two issues stood out. Firstly, for the patients, and definitely for the family members, the sickening experience is marked by the sense that the current life is very different from the past. There is as if it were a shock between the I-current body and the I-past body. Secondly, the patient’s experience is marked by a noticeable personal restriction. This restriction appears in movement, language and sexuality disturbances; in the fears and anguish the patient is attacked by; in the family relations that are established, marked by a limiting overprotection and by the dependence in relation to other persons’ care; and in the experiences with the extra-family social environment, which arouse shame and the urge to get isolated. As to family members, their experience is mainly guided by the effort to offer a care that favors the ill person’s well-being. However, caregivers bear an intense burden of preoccupations and fears that lead to a sometimes overprotective attitude. Furthermore, the brain tumor patient’s family members also experience personal losses and great physical and emotional wear. Some elements in Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy made it possible to elaborate and enrich the comprehensions highlighted above. We are a body that is continuously directed at the world and this body we are is not the body discussed in the field of biomedical knowledge, but a phenomenal body, the lived body. Consequently, in the gravest cases of brain tumor, the person’s movement towards the world can be seriously impaired. Another notion that stands out is the fact that attitudes are constructed towards the sickening, that is, movements of the being in the world that are ruled by an existential structure that essentially contains the limiting organic event. Finally, the idea was explored that any attitude towards the disease mobilizes all dimensions of the being, more specifically temporality and being with the other in the experience of this study’s collaborators.

Hintergrund: Knochensarkome sind eine Gruppe sehr seltener maligner Tumoren. Es existieren nur wenige Studien zur psychischen Belastung der betroffenen Patienten. Ziel war es, die Prävalenz erhöhter psychischer Belastung in dieser Gruppe zu ermitteln, damit assoziierte Faktoren zu untersuchen und die Inanspruchnahme psychoonkologischer Angebote zu erfassen. Methode: Die Kohortenstudie PROSa (Krankheitslast und Versorgungssituation bei Sarkomen) wurde zwischen 2017 und 2020 in 39 deutschen Studienzentren durchgeführt. Für die vorliegende Analyse wurden Baseline-Querschnittsdaten von erwachsenen Knochensarkompatienten ausgewertet. Die psychische Belastung wurde mit dem Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-4) evaluiert. Sozioökonomische und klinische Faktoren wurden als mögliche Prädiktoren erhöhter psychischer Belastung mit multivariablen logistischen Regressionsmodellen exploriert. Resultate: Bei den 194 eingeschlossenen Patienten betrug die Prävalenz von Ängsten 18%, die von Depressivität 22%. Insgesamt waren 29% der Patienten überschwellig psychisch belastet. 23% hatten eine psychoonkologische Betreuung in Anspruch genommen. Im vollen Modell waren arbeitslose Patienten (Odds Ratio [OR] 5,7; 95%- Konfidenzintervall [CI] 1,6–20,0) und Patienten mit Erwerbsminderungsrente (OR 3,6; 95%-CI 1,03–12,9) im Vergleich zu solchen in Beschäftigung häufiger belastet, Patienten mit Altersrente, in Vorruhestand oder in Altersteilzeit dagegen weniger häufig (OR 0,2; 95%-CI 0,05–0,9). Die Häufigkeit psychischer Belastung war bei Patienten 5 Jahre nach Diagnose (Vergleich Diagnose <6 Monate) geringer (OR 0,1; 95%-CI 0,04–0,4). Konklusion: Die Prävalenz erhöhter psychischer Belastung bei Knochensarkompatienten ist hoch. Arbeitslose Patienten, solche mit Erwerbsminderungsrente sowie neu diagnostizierte Patienten sind besonders vulnerabel. Das Behandlungsteam sollte sich dieser Faktoren bewusst sein und auch diese sozialen Aspekte der Erkrankung berücksichtigen.
