Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Purpose: This project aims to examine the effects of planned education on health beliefs and fatalism in women at high risk of breast cancer. When national and international literature was examined, no project was found in which the health beliefs and fatalism of high-risk women in breast cancer were determined and then the results were evaluated by implementing a planned education. Therefore, planning an original project in this field aims to contribute to the literature. Scope and Target Group: The project will be carried out with women who applied to Ordu Education and Research Hospital Family Medicine and General Surgery Breast Polyclinic within the borders of Ordu province and who received 301 and above points from the breast cancer risk assessment form (N=72). Ordu University Education and Research Hospital is a hospital that provides services with an affiliation protocol within the framework of the "Regulation on the Methods and Principles of Cooperation with the Joint Use of the Institutions and Organizations of the Ministry of Health and its Affiliated Organizations and the Relevant Units of State Universities". Method and Expected Result: The project was planned as a randomized controlled experimental follow-up study with a pre-test-post-test control group design in order to examine the effect of planned education on health beliefs and fatalism in women at high risk of breast cancer. Planned education intervention will be applied to women at high risk of breast cancer whose health beliefs and fatalistic tendencies have been determined. Planned education will provide breast self-examination (BSE) on the model closest to human tissue, and pathologies related to breast cancer will be detected on the model by touching the model. An approach based on raising awareness of breast cancer and learning early diagnosis methods through doing and living experience will be provided. Therefore, it is expected that the planned education applied by doing and experiencing on a model close to human tissue will be effective in gaining and implementing health behaviors in women with known health beliefs and fatalistic tendencies at high risk of breast cancer. In addition, it is expected that the application by doing and experiencing will be effective in gaining permanent health behaviors.
