Abstract

Amaç: Araştırma jinekolojik kanserli kadınlarda evlilik uyumunun değerlendirilmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Yöntem: Bu çalışma tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel bir araştırma olarak yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini Mart 2021 ile Ocak 2022 tarihleri arasında Türkiye'nin doğusundaki bir üniversite hastanesinin kadın doğum kliniğinde jinekolojik kanser tedavisi gören 106 kadın oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın verileri kişisel bilgi formu ve evlilik uyumu ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmıştır.
Bulgular: Jinekolojik kanser hastası kadınların %72.6'sının evlilik uyumu olmadığı, %27.4'ünün ise evlilik uyumu olduğu ortaya çıktı. Jinekolojik kanserli kadınların kanser türleri ile toplam evlilik uyumu ölçeği skorları arasında anlamlı fark bulundu (p<0,05) ve bu farkın endometrium kanseri olan kadınlardan kaynaklandığı görüldü. Araştırmaya katılan kadınlar arasında en düşük evlilik uyumu puanının endometrium kanseri olan kadınlarda (34.07±11.09) olduğu görüldü.
Sonuçlar: Araştırmada, jinekolojik kanserlerin evlilik uyumunu olumsuz yönde etkilediği, endometrium kanseri olan kadınların evlilik uyumlarının daha düşük olduğu sonucuna varıldı.

Abstract

Aim: The research was conducted to assess marital adjustment in women with gynecologic cancer.
Methods: The present study was carried out as a descriptive and cross-sectional study. The study sample comprised 106 women who received gynecologic cancer treatment at the gynecology and obstetrics clinic of a university hospital in the east of Türkiye between March 2021 and January 2022. The research data were collected using a personal information form and the Marital Adjustment Scale.
Results: It was found that 72.6% of women with gynecologic cancer did not have marital adjustment, while 27.4% had marital adjustment. A significant difference was identified between the cancer types and total marital adjustment scale scores of women with gynecologic cancer (p<0.05), and this difference arose from women with endometrial cancer. Women with endometrial cancer had the lowest marital adjustment score (34.07±11.09) among the women participating in the study.
Conclusion: The study found that gynecologic cancers adversely affect marital adjustment and that women with endometrial cancer have lower marital adjustment.
