Resumo: Nowadays a lot of people are living longer and than, taking care of patient with chronic disease is an important aspect of public health problem. Taking care of patient in the terminally ill cancer phase is considered a complex, difficult, anxiously and not well studied. The vast majority of papers evaluate family after death, however the informal caregiver can present a lot of emotional, physical and social changes, principally in the period just before patient death, and the measurement of these symptoms are necessary. Many well-studied instruments tools are available in the literature; however, the great majority of them seam to be incomplete regarding all dimension of care during terminal phase (physical, psychological, social, economical needs, hopes, spiritual and existential believes). In this review study some of the more important standard instruments tested for caregivers terminal cancer patients are analyzed and the application of an instrument still not validated in Brazil is suggested. This instrument, the General Comfort Questionnaire (GCQ) offers the possibility to make a multidimensional evaluation of caregivers for terminal cancer phase patients.

No caso do paciente com câncer na fase terminal da doença, este cuidar é uma tarefa complexa, difícil, angustiante e pouco estudada. A maioria dos estudos avaliam, em geral, após a morte, já no período de luto, ao passo que o cuidador informal pode apresentar alterações emocionais, físicas e sociais principalmente no período que antecede a morte do paciente, fator que torna necessária a mensuração destes sintomas. Existem muitos instrumentos padronizados disponíveis na literatura nesta linha, porém a maioria não é completa em relação a todas as dimensões dos cuidados que devem ser oferecidos na fase terminal da doença (sintomas físicos, sintomas psicológicos, suporte social, necessidades econômicas, expectativas e esperanças, crenças existenciais e espirituais). No presente estudo, foram analisados alguns dos principais instrumentos e selecionado um, recentemente publicado e ainda não validado no Brasil, para realizar sua tradução. Ele possibilita a avaliação multidimensional dos cuidadores de pacientes com câncer na fase terminal da doença, o General Comfort Questionnaire (GCQ).INCA2005-03-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRevisão de literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/200010.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2005v51n1.2000Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 51 No. 1 (2005): Jan./Feb./Mar.; 79-87Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 51 Núm. 1 (2005): ene./feb./mar.; 79-87Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 51 n. 1 (2005): jan./fev./mar.; 79-872176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/2000/1223Rezende, Vera LuciaDerchain, Sophie MauricetteBotega, Neury JoséVial, Daniela Landulfoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:30:46Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/2000Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:30:46Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false
