Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify post-operative discomfort, sense of loss, family support, and resilience in breast cancer surgery patients, and to investigate factors that affect resilience. Method: The sample of this study consisted of 108 patients who underwent surgery for breast cancer in two university hospitals located in B city. The collected data was analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and Scheffé test, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and hierarchical multiple regression. Results: The factors that significantly affected resilience were as follows: having a religion (${\beta}=-.20$, p=.006), having an occupation (${\beta}=.14$, p=.049), having a high school diploma (${\beta}=.31$ p=.001), making less than 2-3 million won (${\beta}=-.19$, p=.036) per month, experiencing a sense of loss (${\beta}=-.22$, p=.003) and family support (${\beta}=.44$, p<.001). The total explanatory power amounted to 53.8% (F=14.83, p<.001, $AdjR^2=.54$). Conclusion: Educational intervention programs for breast cancer surgery patients that improve resilience by reducing the sense of loss and increasing family support must be developed.
