Article Kolorektal Kanserden Korunma ve Hemşirenin Sorumlulukları(2017) Kaçmaz, Hatice Yüceler; Çürük, Gülsüm NihalMevcut birçok tarama ve tanılama yöntemi olmasına rağmen, kolorektal kanserler (KRK), dünya genelinde ve ülkemizde önemli sağlık sorunları arasında yer almaktadır. KRK ile ilişkili morbidite ve mortalitenin azaltılmasında tarama yöntemlerinin önemli olduğunu gösteren kanıtlar bulunmaktadır. KRK’den korunmada bireylere risk değerlendirmesinin yapılması ve bireylerin uygun tarama yöntemlerine yönlendirilmeleri gerekir. Hemşireler risk değerlendirmesi ve tarama yöntemleri konusunda bilgi sahibi olmalı ve bu konularda eğitim vermelidir. Kanser kontrolünde hemşire kanseri önleme, kanser tarama ve tanılama programlarında danışmanlık yapma, kanserli bireye bakım verme, birey, aile ve topluma sağlık eğitimi yapma ve araştırma yapma rollerine sahiptir. Uygun KRK tarama yöntemlerinin kullanılması ile KRK ilişkili morbidite-mortalite azaltılabilir ve bireyin yaşam kalitesi artırılabilir.Article Experience With a Support Group Intervention Offered To Breast Cancer Women(2017-03-31) Karayurt, Özgül; Ursavaş, Figen ErolBreast cancer is the most frequent cancer in Turkey and other countries.

Support groups and education are quite frequently utilized to achieve this adaptation and coping. Support group interventions allow the women to discuss, receive education and share their experiences. ftese opportunities guide the patients about how to man- age their disease and help them fulfill their social support needs. Support groups are very important to promote physical and psychological health, expand social network and increase social support for breast cancer women. fte aim of this review is to reveal experiences in the preparatory and implementation stages of a support group intervention designed for women diagnosed with breast cancer in the framework of a PhD dissertation.Article Healthy Lifestyle Behaviours and Attitudes of Relatives of Patients With Colorectal Cancer Towards Protection From Colorectal Cancer(2017-12-01) Yüceler Kaçmaz, Hatice; Çürük, Gülsüm Nihal; Kaçmaz, Hatice YücelerAim: This study was conducted in order to determine healthy lifestyle behaviours and attitudes of first degree relatives ofpatients with colorectal cancer (CRC) towards protection from CRC.Material and Method: The data were collected by the researcher using Colorectal Cancer Screening Attitude Beliefs Scale(CCSAB), and Health Promotion Life-Style Profile II (HPLP).Results: It was found that more than half (56.3%) of the patient relatives did not have knowledge about CRC and 85.2%did not participate early diagnosis/screening programs of CRC. It was found that CCSAB total mean score of the patientrelatives was 53.06±8.91 and HPLP’ total mean score was 132.46±20.96. Both HPLP’ mean score and CCSAB’ mean scorewas higher in patient’ relatives who had knowledge about CRC and participated in early diagnosis/screening programs ofCRC and the difference was determined to be highly significant. A positive, weak, and statistically significant correlationwas found between CCSAB and HPLP scale of patient relatives in the study.Conclusion: The present study showed that the rate of patient relatives to participate in CRC screening participationrates was low, healthy lifestyle behaviours and attitudes towards protection from CRC were moderate. Nurses shouldraise awareness through protection from cancer and early diagnosis/screening programs especially for cancer patients’relatives in all individuals is at risk primarily first degree relatives of patients with protection from and be guiding toacquire healthy lifestyle behaviours.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 17Evaluation of Illness Perception of Women With Breast Cancer in Turkey(Aves, 2019-04-04) Karabulutlu, Elanur Yilmaz; Avci, Iliknur Aydin; Karayurt, Orgul; Gursoy, Ayla; Kosgeroglu, Nedime; Tuna, Arzu; Ersin, Fatma; Karaman, SedaObjective: The aim of this study is to examine the illness perceptions of women with breast cancer and possible relationships between these perceptions and descriptive characteristics such as sociodemographic and clinical characteristics in Turkey.

The purpose of the study is to determine the needs of primary relatives of women with BC in Turkey for information and support.Methods: This article is a descriptive research. A total of 199 volunteer relatives of patients with BC were reached and interviewed by nurses in a university hospital's oncology clinic. They completed the Information and Support Needs Questionnaire. Parametric, non parametric, and multiple regression tests were used in statistical analysis.Results: In the study, a statistically significant difference was observed between the information and support needs and demographics of FDFRs (p<0.05). The rate of information need was higher among those who had a risk of BC and who practiced protective behaviors regularly. And also the rate of unmet support need was higher among those who had a risk of BC and who did not practice protective behaviors (p<0.05). The need for information and support is increasing in the FDFRs of women with BC whose diagnosis time prolonged.Conclusion: This study showed that FDFRs of patients with BC needed information and psychosocial support. Nurses should have an important role in communicating with relatives of patients with BC.
