Distress: Characterizing What Causes the Thermometer to Shift in Patients with Newly Diagnosed Breast Cancer Attending a Multidisciplinary Clinic
2019
Background
A diagnosis of breast cancer (BC) can result in multifactorial stress. If not addressed, distress can have a negative impact on outcomes. The experience of patients with newly diagnosed BC has not been sufficiently investigated. This study characterizes distress among new patients in a multidisciplinary care (MDC) clinic. The study aimed to determine the degree of distress at presentation, to characterize the sources, and to evaluate the impact of an MDC visit.
