Resumen

El objetivo de este estudio es la elaboración de un cuestionario de evaluación del miedo a la recurrencia del cáncer en español. Método: se presenta un estudio piloto de diseño correlacional trasversal elaborado en dos fases: 1) creación del cuestionario del miedo a la recurrencia del cáncer (CMRC) y de la Escala General del Miedo a la Recurrencia del Cáncer (EGMRC); 2) evaluación de sus propiedades psicométricas. Resultados: para la elaboración de los cuestionarios se utilizó el acuerdo entre expertos medido por la V de Aiken. El CMRC queda finalmente configurado con 8 ítems que se responden con una escala tipo Likert de 0-4 y un Alfa de Cronbach de 0,85. La EGMRC de una sola pregunta que se responde con una escala de 0-100 correlaciona hasta un 0,84 con el CMRC. Se utilizó una muestra de 50 mujeres supervivientes de cáncer ginecológico seleccionadas en el Hospital Universitario Clínico San Carlos de Madrid. Ambas escalas correlacionan con el nivel de ansiedad de las pacientes y la función emocional de calidad de vida. No se hallan correlaciones con los niveles de depresión. Conclusiones: El CMRC y la EGMRC son dos instrumentos que pueden ser válidos para la evaluación del miedo a la recurrencia del cáncer en pacientes supervivientes de cáncer ginecológico.
