Resumen
El autoexamen de mamas es un procedimiento útil para prevenir el cáncer mamario, pese a su importancia se muestran escasos conocimientos e inadecuadas prácticas en su realización, sobre todo en la población joven. La investigación fue cualitativa, de diseño descriptivo, cuyo objetivo fue describir y analizar la percepción del autoexamen de mamas en estudiantes del IX ciclo de enfermería de una universidad privada de Chiclayo, 2023. La población estuvo conformada por 44 estudiantes del IX ciclo de Enfermería de la Universidad Católica Santo Toribio de Mogrovejo. El muestreo fue por conveniencia no probabilístico; la muestra fue de 13 estudiantes, obtenidos por saturación y redundancia, los datos fueron recolectados a través de una guía de entrevista semiestructurada que ha sido validada por juicio de expertos y por prueba piloto, la información obtenida fue analizada a través del análisis de contenido revelando los resultados en 4 categorías: Autoexamen de mamas: Un método para prevenir el cáncer, Reconociendo la importancia del autoexamen de mamas, Describiendo el procedimiento del autoexamen de mamas y Dificultades en el autoexamen de mamas: Tiempo, desconocimiento, temores. Finalmente se cumplió con los criterios éticos y de rigor científico en todo el desarrollo del estudio. Concluyendo que las estudiantes de enfermería reconocen el valor del autoexamen de mamas para prevenir el cáncer, enfrentan barreras como falta de tiempo, desconocimiento y temores, siendo necesario implementar estrategias que superen estas dificultades y promuevan su práctica.
