Abstract
Objective: To conduct a scoping review of longitudinal studies related to disease perception in cancer patients and to provide a reference for the improvement of disease perception in cancer patients. Methods: Using the scoping method, PubMed, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, Medline, CNKI, Wanfang Database, VIP Chinese Scientific and Technical Journals Database, and China Biomedical Literature Database were searched up to July 2023 for analysis and discussion of the included literature. Results: A total of 19 articles were included, distributed across 9 countries including China, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, with 8 articles published in China. The study subjects included patients with breast cancer, colorectal cancer, laryngeal cancer, lung cancer, esophageal cancer, and bladder cancer. The content covered dynamic changes in disease perception, the impact of disease perception, and the influencing factors of disease perception. Conclusion: The number of longitudinal studies on disease perception in cancer patients is gradually increasing and becoming more diverse. However, issues such as a small total number of studies, single research methods, and short observation periods persist. In the future, it is necessary to conduct in-depth longitudinal research on disease perception in cancer patients, expand the scope of research fields, and provide more comprehensive theories to guide clinical treatment and nursing practices, ultimately improving the treatment outcomes and quality of life for cancer patients.
