| description | Introduction: Building an evaluation model that derives from oncology pediatric patients' perspective is essential for effectively meeting their needs. Current standards of pediatric psychosocial-oncology care are mainly determined by medical providers and the child's relatives. There is a recognized need to develop a holistic model that is driven by patients themselves, with a central focus on utilizing art as a tool to facilitate the expression of their inner world.
Objective: To propose an integrative model for the biopsychosocial assessment of oncology pediatric patients.
Material and Methods: Qualitative grounded theory design based on the analysis of observations, interviews, and art projects. The initial study included twenty children aged 6-17 years diagnosed with cancer from the Hospital de Especialidades Pediátricas in Maracaibo, Venezuela.
Results: An integrative model for the biopsychosocial assessment consisting of six dimensions—physical, cognitive, emotional, behavioral, family, and social—represented as concentric and interacting circles, is proposed. This model depicts factors that promote well-being and health, as well as obstacles that impede them in pediatric oncology.
Conclusions: This model establishes a foundational framework for cancer centers to delineate the essential components of comprehensive biopsychosocial care from pediatric patients’ perspective. |
