Abstract

G. VIVAR, Cristina. Quality of life in long-term breast cancer survivors: A neglected area in the spanish nursing research. Index Enferm [online]. 2005, vol.14, n.50, pp.25-29. ISSN 1699-5988.

The main purpose of this paper is to evidence the importance of fostering research with long-term breast cancer survivors, at the same time that the concept of long-term survivorship is introduced in the Spanish nursing research context. This paper is organised into three sections that examine studies on the quality of life in survivors of breast cancer. Evidence shows that the quality of life of these women differ from that of healthy women. Therefore, it is concluded that it is important to promote research in this area of cancer nursing in Spain in order to provide good care to this growing population.
