A Holistic Nursing Response to Mastectomy Trauma Syndrome

Elaine Anne Pasquali, Ph.D., R.N.

Adelphi University

As a consequence of mastectomy, women may experience disruptions in four domains of life: the physical, the psychological, the social, and the spiritual. Mastectomy trauma syndrome refers to these lifestyle disruptions. This ethnographic research study explores the major lifestyle disruptions associated with mastectomy. Holistic concepts and strategies are suggested to assist postmastectomy women toward self-actualization.
