- W2001006375 abstract "Breast cancer affects women worldwide. Early detection strategies, notably mammography, aim to reduce mortality from breast cancer. However, mammography is a costly screening tool, generates controversy in terms of its impact and adverse effects, and its uptake remains low among some populations. This qualitative study (12 focus groups with 110 participants) explored experiences with mammography among Barbadian women by investigating how barriers are negotiated in a setting of resource-constrained health care provision without a national screening programme. The study findings indicate that, firstly, Barbadian women have to actively seek understanding of both breast cancer and the mammography process. Women described how, with little public awareness and knowledge, they borrow from available public health information on diabetes and HIV/AIDS to give meaning to mammographic screening. Secondly, many women expressed their fear about mammography and its potential consequences, such as experiencing social stigma and losing a romantic relationship after diagnosis. Thirdly, the cost of screening for women who opted for the more reliable private facilities was discussed, along with the potential cost of health care following a diagnosis and the emotional cost of enduring the societal taboo of breast cancer. If breast cancer screening is to be acceptable for this or similar populations, there should be provision of additional services to ensure better access to free screening or alternative strategies, as well as post-diagnostic social and financial support. The policies to develop these services must also address women’s concerns about screening and breast cancer, and provide comprehensive information to allow informed decisions about screening." @default.
