Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Cancer Survival Analysis01:21

Cancer Survival Analysis

573
Cancer survival analysis focuses on quantifying and interpreting the time from a key starting point, such as diagnosis or the initiation of treatment, to a specific endpoint, such as remission or death. This analysis provides critical insights into treatment effectiveness and factors that influence patient outcomes, helping to shape clinical decisions and guide prognostic evaluations. A cornerstone of oncology research, survival analysis tackles the challenges of skewed, non-normally...

Summary

Family caregivers of advanced cancer patients need more research on resilience. This study proposes the American Psychological Association definition and Bonanno

Area of Science:

  • Oncology Nursing
  • Psychology
  • Caregiver Support

Background:

  • Family caregivers of advanced cancer patients face mental health risks.
  • Most caregivers adapt well, but timely assessment by GPs is challenging.
  • Limited research and a lack of universal definitions hinder understanding of caregiver resilience.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a comprehensive definition and framework for resilience research in advanced cancer family caregiving.
  • To address the need for standardized terminology and theoretical grounding in this field.

Main Methods:

  • Hermeneutic methodology employed for literature review and concept analysis.
  • Systematic search and analysis of articles on resilience following trauma.
  • Data saturation guided the cessation of article collection and analysis.

Main Results:

  • The American Psychological Association (APA) definition of resilience as 'the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma or threats' is proposed.
  • Bonanno's framework of 'temporal elements of resilience' is also suggested.

Conclusions:

  • Further research on resilience in advanced cancer caregivers is crucial.
  • Resilience is context-dependent, requiring situation-specific study.
  • Adoption of the APA definition and Bonanno's framework can enhance research clarity and comparability.
