【目的】周産期に触知する乳房のしこりを助産師が乳がんの可能性として意識しているのかとその背景を明らかにした。【方法】助産師に、無記名自記式質問紙調査を実施し、分析対象は151名であった。周産期に触知する乳房のしこりを乳がんの可能性として意識しているか否かを従属変数、対象者の背景と乳がんに関する認識を独立変数としχ2検定を行った後、二項ロジスティック回帰分析を実施した。【結果】周産期に触知するしこりを乳がんの可能性として意識している群は、自ら乳がん検診を受けている(p<0.01)、自己検診を行っている(p<0.01)、過去もしくは現在、乳がんを身近に感じている(p<0.01)、助産師としての勤務年数が10年以上(p<0.01)、40歳以上(p<0.01)が関連要因として有意であった。最終的な因果関係は、自己検診を行っている人であった。行っていない人に比較し、オッズ比2.386であった(95%信頼区間:1.157-4.916、p<0.05)。【考察】周産期に触知する乳房のしこりを乳がんの可能性として意識するには、助産師に対する自己検診の教育や啓蒙を行っていくことが重要であることが示唆された。(著者抄録)
