Abstract

Objectives: We aimed to investigate the prevalence of comorbidities in cervical cancer survivors compared with the general population and to identify risk factors and impact on their quality of life (QoL). Methods: 860 female cervical cancer survivors enrolled at six tertiary hospitals and 994 women from the general population were surveyed on current comorbidities and QoL (EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-CX24). Results: Compared with the general female population, the cervical cancer survivors reported higher prevalence of comorbidities (0.93 ± 2.91 vs. 0.37 ± 0.67, p < 0.01), significantly more heart disease (adjusted odds ratio (aOR), 2.64; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.38–5.07), liver disease (aOR, 3.29; 95% CI, 1.54–7.02), hypertension (aOR, 1.72; 95% CI, 1.30–2.27), gastrointestinal disease (aOR, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.37–2.33) and musculoskeletal disease (aOR, 1.94; 95% CI, 1.45–2.59). Heart and renal disease significantly influenced QoL in many subscales. Patients with diabetes or cerebrovascular disease had an increased likelihood of sexual problems. Conclusions: The cervical cancer survivors had more comorbidities than the general population, and that in turn affected their QoL. Vigilant follow-up of comorbidities should be incorporated into in the care of cancer survivors.

Abstract

Objectives: Symptoms other than their primary disease can interfere in the lives of terminal cancer patients. We sought to identify which of these symptoms is most important. Methods: We administered a questionnaire, including the M.D. Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI), to 142 terminal cancer patients at the National Cancer Center, Korea. The validity of the MDASI was tested by principal-axis factor analysis and Cronbach’s α coefficient. Stepwise multiple regression analysis was used to determine the symptoms that interfered most in terminal cancer patients’ lives. Results: Factor analysis showed that it was composed of two factors (symptom and interference scales). Cronbach’s α coefficients of symptom and interference scales were each >0.70. The patients had an average of 11 of 13 symptoms of the MDASI. Pain was the most common and severe, followed by feelings of distress and fatigue. Fatigue was the most highly correlated with interference sum. In stepwise multiple regression analysis, the most interfering symptom was fatigue. Conclusions: Although pain was the most common and severe symptom, fatigue was the most important symptom interfering in the lives of terminal cancer patients. In treating terminal cancer patients, healthcare providers should actively intervene to reduce both fatigue and pain.

Abstract

Objectives: We conducted this study to identify factors influencing the burdens cancer brings to a patient’s family and to evaluate the association between the burdens and the caregiver’s quality of life (QOL). Methods: Participants were drawn from the primary family caregivers of cancer patients at 6 university hospitals and the National Cancer Center in Korea. Of the 738 eligible caregivers, 704 (95.4%) completed the questionnaire packets (Family Impact Questions and Caregiver’s QOL-Cancer). Results: Caregivers, who were poor (OR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.44–3.10), whose health status was poor (OR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.29–2.70), who were married (OR, 1.75; 95% CI, 1.12–2.72), who provided care for a long time (OR, 2.29; 95% CI, 1.59–3.28), who cared for patients with poor performance status (OR, 1.35; 95% CI, 1.00–1.82), and who paid high medical expenses (OR, 1.70; 95% CI, 1.21–2.40), were more likely to lose their family savings. In multiple regression analysis, most burden variables – including requiring caregiving assistance, major life change, inability to function normally, loss of savings, loss of income, and altered educational plans – were associated with caregiver QOL. Loss of family income, which was related to economic issues, was most strongly associated with it (16.0%). Conclusions: Our study suggests that to improve caregiver QOL, we should give priority to decreasing the economic burden that cancer places on patient’s family.
