Effect of peers group consultation

Breast cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers in women so that 23% of diagnosed cancer cases and the reason of 14% of cancer caused deaths is breast cancer. The disease is the most common cancer in women (21.4%) in Iran [5]. Estimates suggest that more than 25million individuals in the world are in their breast cancer fifth post-diagnosis year. The survivors are at a higher risk of recurrence of the cancer or other diseases like diabetes and heart and nervous diseases comparing with healthy individuals [6]. Unhealthy lifestyle has increased the risk of cancers and chronic diseases, a phenomenon that calls for interventional behaviors to improve health condition of individuals [7]. Studies have uncovered a desire in women with breast cancer to speak with their peers who have managed to adapt to their condition and returned to their natural course of lives [8]. A peer is an individual with some identical traits like age, gender, job. Social-economic condition, and health condition to another person [9, 10]. A successful peer can share their strengths and weaknesses with others with a minimum burden on the health system. By creating practical, emotional, and information readiness, continues follow ups, and sharing and discussing the stresses of a chronic disease, a patient can motivate their peers to adopt healthier behaviors [11-15]. Support by the peer can be provided via different methods such as group or personal support and long distance relationships (telephone and Internet). The long distance relationships have been evaluated by several applied studies [11, 16, 17]. Pongthavornkamol et al. (2014) and Sharif et al. (2010) studied the effects of peer education on women with breast cancer and supported the positive effects on the quality of life of patients after mastectomy [18, 19]. The effects of peer-centered support on women with breast cancer and its effects on health improving behaviors are surveyed in the present paper.
