- Abstract
The objective was to investigate the diagnostic and therapeutic itinerary carried out by relatives and people with cancer. This is an exploratory study with a qualitative approach, developed in a philanthropic hospital in João Pessoa-PB. The following categories were constructed: Category 1 - Recognition of signs and symptoms before diagnosis; Category 2 - from diagnosis to initiation of therapy: pathways experienced by patients; Category 3 - Therapeutic itinerary of patients, which was divided into Subcategory 1 - Symptoms during treatment and Subcategory 2 - Difficulties faced by patients during the proposed therapy and Category 4 - Challenges faced by relatives. It is important to understand the context in which the disease process is experienced and the time in which the stages of the diagnostic and therapeutic itinerary are developed, in order to provide better care.
