The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of a nursing intervention in increasing the therapeutic self-care demand in patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema after a mastectomy. The pre-experiment was carried out on women in the State Cancer Institute in Colima, Mexico. Thirty women who had undergone a mastectomy were included in this study. Each woman received a nursing intervention to increase her knowledge, skills and motivation, which are the components of therapeutic self-care demand. Students’  t  and  P  values were calculated for paired means, and the McNemar X 2  test was performed for paired categorical variables. It was found that Students’  t  values for therapeutic self-care demand, knowledge, skills and motivation were significant (all with  P  = 0.00001). It was also found that McNemar  X   2  values for the same criteria paired categorically were significant ( P  = 0.0002,  P  = 0.003,  P = 0.0002,  P  = 0.00001, respectively). It was concluded that the nursing intervention was effective in increasing the therapeutic self-care demand of patients with post-mastectomy breast cancer.
