Anxiety and Pain in Surgically Treated Breast Cancer Patients

  • 발행 : 2015.06.03

초록

The aim of the study was to evaluate the level of anxiety and pain in women with breast cancer. Patients who had been treated with modified radical mastectomy or breast conserving surgery were included. Data were gathered using the state-trait anxiety inventory and the visual analog scale. The pain levels and analgesic consumption of the patients were evaluated after surgery. The study sample consisted of 150 women. The mean age of the participants was $50.54{\pm}10.02$. Most of the patients (58%) received breast conserving surgery. The mean state anxiety score was $44.74{\pm}11.91$, and the mean trait anxiety score was $48.78{\pm}9.48$ before surgery. The mean pain level on the first day following surgery was $3.26{\pm}1.91$ and analgesic consumption was $2.98{\pm}1.08$. There was no correlation between patient pain and anxiety levels. There was very slightly positive correlation between trait anxiety and total analgesic consumption. Assessing the levels of anxiety in breast cancer patients before surgery may contribute to the determination of postoperative pain.
