Abstract

Objective Although many cancer patients experience psychological distress, not all affected patients utilise psycho-oncological care. We aim to examine the role of generalised resistance resources (GRRs) and sense of coherence (SOC) in predicting cancer patient needs for psycho-oncological care and its utilisation. A salutogenic prediction model was conceptualised and statistically tested. Methods Survey data (response rate 88.94%) from 2270 breast cancer patients one year after treatment in one of 88 certified hospitals in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, were analysed. Structural Equation Modelling analysis was performed. Results 21.6% of patients (n = 485;N = 2249) felt they currently needed psycho-oncological care, of which 61.6% currently utilised it (n = 299,N = 485). 42.2% (n = 953,N = 2259) had the need for psycho-oncological care in the previous 12 months, of which 58.0% (n = 553,N = 953) utilised it. Several GRRs directly predict the need for psycho-oncological care and SOC, as well as indirectly predict the utilisation of psycho-oncological care. Past utilisation significantly affects current need and utilisation. The model shows good model fit. Conclusions Generalised resistance resources and SOC affect the utilisation of psycho-oncological care. Therefore, measuring key GRRs and SOC during cancer treatment should be integrated into patient care as a salutogenic approach, to identify resources and vulnerabilities on an individual level.
