'When I can ride my bike, I think, am I at all as sick as they say?' An exploration of how men with advanced lung cancer form illness perceptions in everyday life.
European Journal of Cancer Care 2022 November 17
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to explore how men with advanced lung cancer form perceptions of their illness in everyday life and how this influences perceptions about rehabilitation.
METHODS: Constructivist grounded theory principles guided the collection and analysis of data from in-depth interviews with 10 men with advanced lung cancer.
RESULTS: The findings show that the men's illness perception was fluid, contextual and formed by interrelated factors. Engaging in daily activities and maintaining everyday life was a strong influence on their illness perception.
CONCLUSION: In order to make rehabilitation relevant to men with lung cancer, consideration should be given to how the men's everyday lives may be incorporated into the service provision.
