简要总结
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of breast cancer and BSE education given to women aged 40 and over using a breast examination simulator on women's breast cancer knowledge levels and health beliefs. Data were collected in the study using the "Personal Information Form, CHAMPION Health Belief Model Scale, Comprehensive Breast Cancer Knowledge Test". A breast cancer education program was applied to the women in the experimental group. The content of the education given to the experimental group was prepared in accordance with the "Breast Cancer Prevention, Screening, Diagnosis, Treatment and Follow-up Clinical Guide 2020 (Version 1.0)" of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Turkey. After the completion of the theoretical education, each woman in the experimental group was given BSE practical training using the "Wearable Breast Examination Simulator" by the first researcher in accordance with the steps in the "Breast Self-Examination" brochure by the "Cancer Early Diagnosis, Screening and Education Center of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Turkey". Then, each woman was provided with the simulator to wear and perform BSE on a model. The application was completed when each woman was able to perform BSE correctly. The success indicator of the practical training was that the woman performed the BSE steps correctly as shown in the brochure and detected at least three tumors in the simulator. The second and third researchers performed the application on the model until each woman in the experimental group performed the procedure steps completely and correctly. The brochure was given to each woman in the experimental group both in print and electronically. A standard reminder message was sent to the experimental group in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd months to perform BSE. Pre-test and post-test data were collected from the control group. No individual in the experimental or control groups was harmed in this study.
详细描述
Methods Objective This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of the training given to women aged 40 and over on breast cancer and BSE using a breast examination simulator on women's breast cancer knowledge levels and health beliefs.
Type of Study This study is a randomised controlled experimental type. The research was conducted with triple blinding method.
The research data were collected by a trained interviewer independent of the researchers. The women in the experimental and control groups were not informed which group they were included in. The data were analysed by a statistician independent of the researchers.
Research Population-Sample The population of the study consisted of patients aged 40 and over who applied to the gynaecology and obstetrics outpatient clinic of XXX Health Practice and Research Hospital and who met the inclusion criteria of the study. In determining the sample size, the mean and standard deviation values (experiment: 23.97±2.40; control: 25.72±3.51) of the post-test score using Champion's Health Belief Model Scale (CHBMS), which was previously conducted in our country, were used, and the effect size (d) was calculated as 0.58.26 Based on the t test in independent groups, the sample size was calculated as 96 at 95% confidence interval and 80% power criteria. Considering that there may be losses from the study, it was decided to include 100 women in the study.

研究组 & 干预措施
control group
Procedures Applied to the Control Group
- The "Personal Information Form, CHAMPION Health Belief Model Scale, Comprehensive Breast Cancer Knowledge Test" was applied to the control group as a pre-test and three months later as a post-test.
- The "Breast Self-Examination" was given to the control group after completing the study.
Experimental group
- Pre-test data were collected by the interviewer using the "Personal Information Form, CHAMPION Health Belief Model Scale, Comprehensive Breast Cancer Knowledge Test" before the training for the experimental group. 2. The breast cancer education program for the experimental group was conducted by the first researcher, and the researcher completed her doctorate in Obstetrics, Women's Health and Diseases Nursing. The content of the education given to the experimental group was prepared in accordance with the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Turkey "Breast Cancer Prevention, Screening, Diagnosis, Treatment and Follow-up Clinical Guide 2020 (Version 1.0)". Each woman in the experimental group was given face-to-face individual education in line with the prepared training material by the first researcher, and their questions were answered at the end of the training.
