Purpose: The purpose of this study was to review the resilience of elderly patients of gastric cancer, their self-efficacy, family support, spiritual well-being and depression.
Methods: The subjects were 100 patients who were 65 years old or older who had been admitted to the surgical department at K University Hospital in B City. Data were collected from August 10 to September 2, 2016.
Results: Resilience of patients showed significant correlations with the degree of self-efficacy r=.51(p<.001), the degree of family support r=.47(p<.001), the degree of spiritual well-being r=.59(p<.001), the degree of depression r=.34(p<.001). The factor that affected resilience most was spiritual well-being (¥â=.35), followed by self-efficacy (¥â=.21), monthly average income (¥â=.20), family support (¥â=.18), and experienced symptoms (¥â=.15). The overall explanatory power was 47.4%.
Conclusion: The degree of resilience in elderly patients of gastric cancer was higher when self-efficacy, family support and spiritual well-being were higher. To improve the resilience of elderly patients of gastric cancer, the development and application of a nursing intervention program that take these variables into account is needed.
