Abstract

Abstract Background Despite the existence of different screening methods, the response to cancer screening is poor among Malaysians. The current study aims to examine cancer patients’ perceptions of cancer screening and early diagnosis. Methods A qualitative methodology was used to collect in-depth information from cancer patients. After obtaining institutional ethical approval, patients with different types and stages of cancer from the three major ethnic groups (Malay, Chinese and Indian) were approached. Twenty semi-structured interviews were conducted. All interviews were audiotaped, transcribed verbatim, and translated into English for thematic content analysis. Results Thematic content analysis yielded four major themes: awareness of cancer screening, perceived benefits of cancer screening, perceived barriers to cancer screening, and cues to action. The majority of respondents had never heard of cancer screening before their diagnosis. Some participants reported hearing about mammogram and Pap smear tests but did not undergo screening due to a lack of belief in personal susceptibility. Those who had negative results from screening prior to diagnosis perceived such tests as untrustworthy. Lack of knowledge and financial constraints were reported as barriers to cancer screening. Finally, numerous suggestions were given to improve screening behaviour among healthy individuals, including the role of mass media in disseminating the message ‘prevention is better than cure’. Conclusions Patients’ narratives revealed some significant issues that were in line with the Health Belief Model which could explain negative health behaviour. The description of the personal experiences of people with cancer could provide many cues to action for those who have never encountered this potentially deadly disease, if incorporated into health promotion activities.

46. Effects of Pharmacist-Led Patient Education on Diabetes-Related Knowledge and Medication Adherence: A Home-Based Study

Author

Abstract

Objective: Patient education is key to the management of acute and chronic conditions. However, the majority of such educational interventions have been reported from health-care settings. In contrast, this study aims to evaluate whether a home-based intervention can result in better understanding about type 2 diabetes mellitus and can increase adherence to prescribed medications. Method: A non-clinical randomised controlled trial was conducted whereby participants received a homebased educational intervention through a registered pharmacist. A total of 150 patients were randomly assigned to two groups (75 patients in each arm). Diabetes knowledge and medication adherence were measured by means of the 14-item Michigan Diabetes Knowledge Test and the 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale, respectively. Results: No significant differences were observed in either group for demographic variables. There was, however, a significant increase in the participants' levels of knowledge about type 2 diabetes mellitus and medication adherence in the home-based intervention group at the completion of the intervention (p < 0.001). Significantly lower HbA1c levels were also observed among the home-based intervention group following the intervention (p < 0.001). Conclusion: A pharmacist-led home-based intervention can significantly increase disease-related knowledge and medication adherence in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Home-based interventional programmes offer a promising method of patient education and counselling.
