European Journal of Gynaecological Oncology, 41(5), 732-738.0392-2936https://doi.org/10.31083/J.EJGO.2020.05.5459https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12713/1197Purpose: To purpose of this study was to examine the interpretations shared by patient relatives on websites. Materials and Methods: A descriptive qualitative approach was used. We used an online search engine, Google, and performed a search utilizing the terms ‘ovarian cancer, ‘sharing’, ‘experience’ between 2009-2019 to determine the sample, and 78 shares were included. Data were analyzed using content analysis. Results: Qualitative analysis revealed four themes: (1) cancer perception, (2) reactions during the disease period, (3) difficulties during the diagnosis and treatment period, and (4) coping strategies. It was determined that caregivers of women with ovarian cancer had a negative perception of the disease, had more emotional reactions, had unmet needs, and examined alternative/complementary medicine practices. Conclusions: This study provided information about the experiences of relatives of women with ovarian cancer during the diagnosis and treatment process.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCaregiverOvarian CancerWebsiteArticle415732738WOS:0005814745000122-s2.0-85095765685Q410.31083/J.EJGO.2020.05.5459N/A
