dcterms.abstractObjectives: This study explores Chinese cervical cancer survivors' perceived cognitive complaints and relevant supportive care needs after primary cancer treatment.en_US
dcterms.abstractDesign: This study utilised a qualitative research design. A semi-structured interview was used to probe cervical cancer patients' perceived cognitive complaints and supportive care needs.en_US
dcterms.abstractSetting: This study was conducted at a secondary cancer care centre located in South China.en_US
dcterms.abstractSetting: This study was conducted at a secondary cancer care centre located in South China. Participants: 31 women with cervical cancer after primary cancer treatment, aged 18-60 years, were purposively selected using non-random sampling procedures.en_US
dcterms.abstractResults: 31 cervical cancer survivors joined this study. Of these, 20 women (64.5%) reported cognitive complaints after cancer treatment. The most common complaint was loss of concentration (n=17, 85.0%). Perceived contributing factors to these cognitive complaints included chemotherapy (n=15, 75.0%) and ageing (n=8, 40.0%). These cognitive problems most commonly impacted daily living (n=20, 100%). Common supportive care needs included symptom management strategies (n=11, 55.0%) and counselling services (n=8, 40.0%).en_US
dcterms.abstractConclusion: This study adds new insight into the growing body of research on cognitive complaints by cancer survivors, in particular Chinese cervical cancer survivors. Improved understanding of cognitive complaints could subsequently facilitate the development of relevant therapeutic interventions for prevention as well as the provision of supportive care services, such as educational and counselling services, to reduce cognitive impairment in women with cervical cancer.en_US
