Outline of Final Research Achievements

Purpose:To clarify the risks to cancer patients under home care during a disaster and the support provided to them,in order to establish a disaster countermeasure support system.Method:①Semi-structured interviews were held with four certified nurses who engaged in patient care during the Kumamoto earthquake.Results:A system for sharing words of encouragement, general information and palliative care hospital collaborative information via LINE is required.②A web-based questionnaire survey for patients who are undergoing or who have undergone cancer treatment was conducted. Results:560 subjects replied (43 were under 30s, 86 in their 40s, 120 in their 50s,168 in their 60s, and 143 were over 70). Their answers allowed us to grasp the conditions and issues during disasters that remain for many years after.Although this project is no longer subsidized,we will continue our research toward the establishment of a disaster countermeasure support system.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

熊本地震で患者ケアに携わっていた認定看護師等4名にインタビュ-,がん治療経験者及び治療中の患者560名に質問紙調査を実施した.この中でがん治療中に突発的な事象として自然災害を体験した患者は273名であった.災害直後は,大変な状況の中,自分自身の身体のことなど考えられなかった.また体験した後になってから感じる思いなど新たな情報が得られた。これらの情報から治療中断による症状悪化の予防、災害関連死の予防に対する支援につながることから学術的意義はある.また他の慢性病患者に対する支援にも役立つ基礎的研究になり,治療費等の抑制による経済的な面での効果も期待できることから社会的意義があると考える.
