resumo: As vivências de ansiedade e stresse são frequentemente identificadas em doentes com
tumor cerebral, em especial quando estes vão ser submetidos a uma intervenção cirúrgica. Com
este estudo pretendeu-se conhecer mais aprofundadamente as vivências de ansiedade e stresse da
pessoa com diagnóstico de tumor cerebral, que vai ser submetida a uma intervenção neurocirúrgica,
no período pré-operatório.
Foram entrevistados cinco doentes adultos, de ambos os sexos e com idades compreendidas entre
os 33 e os 62 anos.
Os resultados revelam que o stresse e ansiedade são experiências comuns a todos os doentes no
período pré-operatório, dependentes da perceção da gravidade da doença, da incerteza do prognóstico
e da antecipação de eventuais repercussões na vida futura. Os doentes apontaram ainda
como fatores potenciadores de stresse, circunstâncias associadas ao processo de hospitalização,
nomeadamente o afastamento da sua vida socioprofissional.
Este estudo constitui um contributo para aprofundar o conhecimento sobre as vivências dos doentes
com tumor cerebral no período pré-operatório, possibilitando a identificação de fatores associados
ao stresse e ansiedade nesta fase da doença, que poderão constituir focos de atenção das
intervenções de enfermagem.
abstract: Patients with brain tumors often experience stress and anxiety, especially when they are about to undergo surgery. This study aimed to comprehend more deeply the experiences of stress and anxiety of the person diagnosed with brain tumor who is attending a neurosurgical intervention, in the preoperative period. Five adult patients were interviewed, of both sexes and aged between 33 and 62 years. The results showed that stress and anxiety are common experiences to all patients in the preoperative period, dependent on the perception of disease severity, uncertainty of prognosis and anticipation of possible negative consequences for future life. Patients also indicated, as factors that promote stress, conditions associated with the hospitalization process, namely the interruption of their socioprofessional life. This study is a contribution to deepen knowledge about the experiences of patients with cerebral tumor in the preoperative period, enabling the identification of factors associated with stress and anxiety at this stage of the disease, which could be the focus of attention of nursing interventions.
