Abstract

The purpose of this study is to understand the sex life of men with rectal cancer. Participants were 8 males who were treated with rectal cancer and analyzed semi-structured questionnaire by Downe-Wamboldt's content analysis method(Step 8). As a result of the analysis, three categories and nine subcategories were derived: Physical difficulty, Psychological difficulty, Mutual role difficulty. Thus, men treated with rectal cancer experience physical, psychological, and interrelated difficulties related to sex. This study was meaningful in that it revealed the experience related to sexual experience of men with rectal cancer and could be used as useful data for the development of sex - related programs.

본 연구의 목적은 직장암 남성들이 경험하는 성생활을 파악하는데 있다. 연구 참여자는 직장암으로 치료를 받고 있는 8명의 남성으로, 반 구조화된 질문을 통한 면담내용을 Downe-Wamboldt의 내용분석 방법(8단계)으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 3개의 범주와 9개의 하위범주가 도출되었다: 신체적 어려움, 심리적 어려움, 상호역할적 어려움. 이와 같이, 직장암으로 치료를 받는 남성들은 성과 관련된 신체적, 심리적, 상호역할적 어려움을 경험하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 직장암 남성들이 경험하는 성과 관련된 경험을 드러내 주었다는데 의의가 있으며 추후 성 관련 프로그램 개발에 유용한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
