- W2890816132 abstract "There are currently 2.9 million women survivors of breast cancer in the United States. Many breast cancer survivors report experiencing multiple simultaneous symptoms. The majority of research, however, has focused on single symptoms. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate symptom clusters, their demographic predictors and functional consequences, among women survivors of breast cancer. The following aims were addressed: (1) To describe the prevalence and number of self-reported physical (pain, fatigue) and mental (depression/anxiety/anger) health symptoms. (2) To determine whether and how symptoms combine to create identifiable clusters. (3) To investigate the relationships between background characteristics and symptom clusters. (4) To investigate the relationships between symptom clusters and functional outcomes (physical function, social role function). The research aims were investigated using a descriptive, exploratory, cross-sectional, secondary analysis study design. Data from 103 women breast cancer survivors from the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) from the National Institutes of Health were analyzed. The women in this sample were mainly White, highly educated, partnered, employed, with a mean age of 12 60.4 years (Range = 30-85). Data were analyzed with descriptive and non-parametric bivariate analyses. Symptom clusters were analyzed with correlation and cluster analysis. The majority of women survivors of breast cancer in this sample reported experiencing symptoms: 67% pain, 62% fatigue, and 63% depression/anxiety/anger. Most women (n=68, 66%) experienced two or three mildly severe symptoms concurrently. Three symptom clusters were identified: Cluster 1 (All Minimal Symptoms) (n=53), Cluster 2 (All Mild Symptoms) (n=42), and Cluster 3 (All Moderate Symptoms) (n=8). The background characteristic predictors revealed no significant relationships with symptom clusters. There was a trend that women in the more symptomatic clusters were younger. Symptom clusters were significantly associated with the physical and social role functional outcomes. Women in the more symptomatic clusters had lower physical and social role function. Symptoms do cluster and differ based on symptom intensity. Women in clusters with even mild to moderate intensity symptoms reported worse physical and social role functioning. Practitioners need to recognize that even mild, concurrent symptoms may require treatment for optimal daily functioning of women survivors of breast cancer. ( en )" @default.
