contents Fear of cancer recurrence in informal caregivers of childhood cancer survivors Fatima Sagrario Espinoza-Salgado Edgar Landa-Ramírez Rebeca Robles Medicina survivors caregivers childhood cancer Fear of cancer recurrence Background Fear of cancer recurrence is one of the most distressing psychological consequences in cancer survivors and their informal primary caregivers (IPC). IPC of childhood cancer survivors (CCS) are often their mothers, which could intensify fear of cancer recurrence (FCR) and its impact on both IPC and CCS. However, the phenomenon has not been widely described in this specific population.Objective To summarize and analyze current evidence on the evaluation and management of FCR among IPC of CCS.Method A narrative review of studies included in four databases (PsycInfo, Medline, CINALH, and Web of Science) with no language or year of publication restrictions.Results Measures specifically developed to assess FCR among IPC of CCS comprising an interview and a questionnaire with initial psychometric evaluations and two short, online intervention programs based on cognitive-behavioral-contextual therapy were identified (ENGAGE and CASCAdE). Both have demonstrated acceptability in parents of CCS in high-income countries; preliminary evidence also exists of the effectivity of CASCAdE in reducing FCR.Discussion and conclusion Given the limitations of this area of psychological evaluation, the Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory, originally developed for adult cancer survivors, constitutes the most suitable tool for evaluating FCR among IPC of CCS. The CASCAdE program seems a promising intervention for IPC of CSS, although cultural adaptations, evaluations of its acceptability in low- and middle-income countries, and controlled studies in large samples are still required. 2022 reseña 0185-3325 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=58274533007 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/582/58274533007/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/582/58274533007/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/582/58274533007/58274533007.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/582/58274533007/movil 10.17711/SM.0185-3325.2022.040 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=582 Salud Mental application/pdf Instituto Nacional de Psiquiatría Ramón de la Fuente Muñiz Salud Mental (México) Num.6 Vol.45
