RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the evidence of validity and accuracy for the Mindful Self-Care Scale-Brief (B-MSCS) in Brazil among family caregivers of people with cancer. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study with a sample of 203 family caregivers of people with cancer. The instruments used in this study were the following: B-MSCS, Brief Resilience Scale, and Brief Scale for Spiritual/Religious Coping. Exploratory factor analysis was carried out using the principal axis factoring method and direct oblimin oblique rotation, and confirmatory factor analysis using the robust weighted least squares means and variance adjusted estimation method and GEOMIM oblique rotation. The internal consistency of the latent factors was measured using Cronbach's alpha coefficients. RESULTS: The 6-factor model showed good fit to the data, with satisfactory reliability indices and adequate representation of the scale's internal structure. The results that can support arguments in favor of validity evidence based on internal structure for the B-MSCS-Brazilian version (BR) relate to a 19-item version which, grouped into 6 latent factors, explained 46.47% of the variance. The factor solution reproduced 79.2% of the theoretically expected structure and 5 items were excluded. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the factors in the B-MSCS-BR ranged from 0.58 to 0.84. Positive religious/spiritual coping had a direct association with the B-MSCS-BR factors, with the exception of the Physical Care factor (r = 0.033, p = 0.635). Negative spiritual/religious coping was inversely associated with the Mindful Relaxation (r = -0.160, p = 0.023), Supportive Relationships (r = -0.142, p = 0.043), and Mindful Awareness factors (r = -0.140, p = 0.045). There were no associations between the B-MSCS-BR factors and resilience. SIGNIFICANCE OF RESULTS: The findings reveal that the B-MSCS (19-item) is a valid, reliable, and culturally-appropriate instrument to examine the practice of mindful self-care by family caregivers of people with cancer in Brazil.
RESUMO
Objetivo: analisar na literatura científica a importância da abordagem espiritual/religiosa pela equipe de enfermagem no tratamento do câncer de mama. Método: revisão integrativa, realizada na BDENF, LILACS e SCOPUS. Resultados: foram selecionados seis estudos, evidenciou-se que a abordagem espiritual/religiosa pelos profissionais de enfermagem auxilia para o enfrentamento positivo do câncer de mama. Assim, emergiu a categoria.: Abordagem espiritual/religiosa na assistência de enfermagem e suas repercussões positivas para o enfrentamento do câncer de mama. Conclusão: a categoria da enfermagem integra a rede de apoio social para o alívio do sofrimento, por meio do aporte espiritual/religioso, auxiliando para a minimização de sentimentos negativos associados ao diagnóstico e aos eventos adversos dos tratamentos, sendo importante incluir discussões acerca desta temática na formação de nível técnico e graduação em enfermagem.
Objective: to analyze in the scientific literature the importance of the spiritual/religious approach by the nursing team in the treatment of breast cancer. Method: integrative review, carried out in BDENF, LILACS and SCOPUS. Results: six studies were selected, showing that the spiritual/religious approach by nursing professionals helps to cope positively with breast cancer. Thus, the following category emerged: Spiritual/religious approach in nursing care and its positive repercussions for coping with breast cancer. Conclusion: the nursing category is part of the social support network for relieving suffering, through spiritual/religious support, helping to minimize negative feelings associated with the diagnosis and adverse treatment events, and it is important to include discussions on this topic in technical and undergraduate nursing training.
Objetivos:analizar la importancia del abordaje espiritual/religioso por el equipo de enfermería en el tratamiento del cáncer de mama en la literatura científica. Método: revisión integradora, realizada en BDENF, LILACS y SCOPUS. Resultados: fueron seleccionados seis estudios que demuestran que el abordaje espiritual/religioso por profesionales de enfermería ayuda a enfrentar positivamente el cáncer de mama. Surgió la siguiente categoría: Enfoque espiritual/religioso en los cuidados de enfermería y sus repercusiones positivas para el afrontamiento del cáncer de mama. Conclusión: la categoría de enfermería forma parte de la red de apoyo social para aliviar el sufrimiento, a través del apoyo espiritual/religioso, ayudando a minimizar los sentimientos negativos asociados al diagnóstico y a los eventos adversos de los tratamientos, siendo importante incluir discusiones sobre este tema en la formación técnica y de pregrado de enfermería.
