Summary:
It is known that the healing process of breast cancer is accelerated thanks to the early
diagnosis and effective treatment. Mammography screening is an important diagnostic
method in the early diagnosis of breast cancer. It is thought that the education to be
given according to the Health Belief Model will make important contributions to
developing a positive attitude in breast cancer screenings and regular mammography.
Detailed description:
The research will consist of women who have previously applied to Erzurum Cancer Early
Diagnosis, Screening and Education Center, had mammography taken, and whose phone records
are available, whose appointment has been made since December 2022, and who meet the
screening selection criteria. Women who have had a mammography appointment from KETEM and
have not taken it yet, request their phone information. After the women were searched one
by one to identify those who fit their characteristics and volunteers, they would leave
the simple random experiment control elements. During the searches, all women will be
invited to KETEM to have a mammogram again. The experimental group will send educational
content through the WhatsApp application once a week, and will also answer questions and
provide individual counseling. A total of 8 weeks of intervention will be implemented,
the first 6 weeks of training will be provided with training presentations and the last 2
weeks of training video will be sent. Feedback will be received after the training
presentations are followed through the WhatsApp application where they are read. The
control group will not take any action and will be invited to KETEM for mammography.
Pre-test and post-analysis phone access will be collected. At the end of the training, he
will have the final examinations applied after 3 months. The number of women who
participated in the study will be determined by examining the KETEM records of
mammography.
