Resumo: | To evaluate the level of knowledge of men over 50 years of age about prostate cancer, radical prostatectomy, and the role of the physical therapist in this context. This is a field, evaluative, exploratory, descriptive, and quantitative research. We evaluated 81 men, aged over 50 years, living in the city of Parnaíba/PI, using a structured questionnaire on the subject. The data were tabulated and analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences - SPSS, for later discussion of the findings based on the literature on the subject. The median age was 63 years and it was found that men had little previous knowledge about prostate cancer, so that 97.5% have heard about prostate cancer, but 54.3% do not know how to prevent it and 58% are unaware of the symptoms of this type of cancer. About radical prostatectomy, 85.2% do not know what it is, and most of them have never been diagnosed with cancer nor had this procedure done (96.3). As for the role of the physiotherapist, 59.3% consider it important in the process of dissemination, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of prostate cancer. The knowledge about the subject needs to be deepened and the role of physiotherapy strengthened in this process. Therefore, it was found the need for the expansion and implementation of preventive actions aimed at improving the assistance to the integral health of men, emphasizing health education and disease prevention. |

Se trata de una investigación de campo, evaluativa, exploratoria, descriptiva y cuantitativa. Se han evaluado 81 hombres de más de 50 años, residentes en la ciudad de Parnaíba/PI, mediante un cuestionario estructurado sobre el tema. Los datos se tabularon y analizaron en el software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences - SPSS. La edad media era de 63 años y se comprobó que los hombres tenían pocos conocimientos sobre el cáncer de próstata, de modo que el 97,5% ha oído hablar del cáncer de próstata, sin embargo el 54,3% no sabe cómo prevenirlo y el 58% no conoce los síntomas de este tipo de cáncer. Sobre la prostatectomía radical, el 85,2% no sabe lo que es, y la mayoría nunca ha sido diagnosticada de cáncer ni se ha sometido a este procedimiento (96,3). En cuanto el papel del fisioterapeuta, el 59,3% lo consideró importante en el proceso de difusión, diagnóstico, tratamiento y rehabilitación del cáncer de próstata. Es necesario profundizar en el conocimiento del tema y reforzar el papel de la fisioterapia en este proceso. Por lo tanto, es necesario ampliar y poner en marcha acciones preventivas destinadas a mejorar la atención sanitaria integral de los hombres, haciendo hincapié en la educación sanitaria y la prevención de enfermedades.Avaliar o nível de conhecimento de homens com idade acima de 50 anos acerca do câncer de próstata, prostatectomia radical e o papel do fisioterapeuta nesse contexto. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de campo, avaliativa, do tipo exploratória, descritiva, com abordagem quantitativa. Foram avaliados 81 homens, com idade acima de 50 anos, residentes na cidade de Parnaíba/PI, por meio de um questionário estruturado sobre o tema. Os dados foram tabulados e analisados no software Statistical Package for the Social Sciences – SPSS, para posterior discussão dos achados com base na literatura sobre o tema. A mediana da idade foi de 63 anos e averiguou-se que os homens apresentaram um conhecimento prévio acerca do câncer de próstata pouco aprofundado, de modo que 97,5% já ouviu falar sobre o câncer de próstata, entretanto 54,3% não sabem como se prevenir e 58% não tem conhecimento dos sintomas desse tipo de câncer. Acerca da prostatectomia radical, 85,2% não sabem o que é, e a grande parte nunca foi diagnosticada com câncer nem realizou tal procedimento (96,3). Quanto ao papel do fisioterapeuta, 59,3% o consideram importante no processo de divulgação, diagnóstico, tratamento e reabilitação do câncer de próstata. O conhecimento acerca do assunto precisa ser aprofundado e o papel da Fisioterapia fortalecido nesse processo. Logo, contatou-se a necessidade da ampliação e efetivação de ações preventivas que visem à melhoria da assistência à saúde integral do homem, enfatizando a educação em saúde e a prevenção de agravos.Research, Society and Development2021-07-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1792010.33448/rsd-v10i8.17920Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 8; e53010817920Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 8; e53010817920Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 8; e530108179202525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/17920/15332Copyright (c) 2021 Bruno Lopes Gomes; Laiane Santos Eufrásio ; Marina Rufino Mariano ; Ivy Veras de Sousa; Priscila Thais Araujo dos Santos ; Guilherme Pertinni de Morais Gouveiahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGomes, Bruno Lopes Eufrásio , Laiane Santos Mariano , Marina Rufino Sousa, Ivy Veras de Santos , Priscila Thais Araujo dos Gouveia, Guilherme Pertinni de Morais2021-08-21T18:46:59Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/17920Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:38:10.059954Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
