Should patient with lung cancer be informed about the diagnosis?

Abstract

Aim: Giving the detailed information about diagnosis in patients with lung cancer has always been a troublesome issue. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the perceptions and sensitivity of patients with lung cancer and participants without cancer including healthcare personnel. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional, descriptive survey, patients with lung cancer and as a control group, patients without cancer, healthy individuals, doctors and medical students were included. Questionnaires were performed by face-to-face interviews. Chi-square and t tests were used for statistical analysis. Results: A total of 585 volunteers participated in the study. Survey population contained 67 patients with lung cancer, 170 patients with disease other than cancer and 348 healthy individuals (including doctors and medical students). Participants without cancer stated that 90% would prefer to be informed about any possible cancer diagnosis, 87% would prefer the doctor to tell their diagnosis, 88% would like to be informed in details. The correct diagnosis was known by 82% of patients with lung cancer and 84% were informed by a doctor, whereas the information was given in ideal conditions in 59%, and 66% of them stated that they believed immediately the doctor's diagnosis and began treatment. Conclusion: In our country, there is a decrease in telling the truth about cancer diagnosis but the level of sensitivity during giving information about diagnosis and treatment is still inadequate.
