ABSTRACT
Objective:To construct and evaluate the effect of precise oral nutrition guidance program for colorectal cancer patients with accelerated rehabilitation after operation.Methods:This study was a quasi experimental study. A total of 116 patients with colorectal cancer from department of Colorectal Surgery, Jiangsu Cancer Hospital from March to Deamber, 2021 were selected by convenience sampling method. They were divided into two groups according to their admission time, the experimental group (58 cases), was given precise oral nutrition guidance program after colorectal cancer surgery based. In the control group, 58 cases were treated with the conventional dietary guidance for rapid rehabilitation. The gastrointestinal tolerance rate, the compliance rate of oral nutritional supplements, the first defecation time after operation, albumin, total albumin, prealbumin and other nutritional indexes were compared between the two groups before and after intervention.Results:Finally, 111 cases were included, induding 56 in the experimental group and 55 in the control group. The compliance rate of oral nutritional supplements after intervention in the experimental group was 73.2% (41/56), higher than that in the control group 40.0%(22/55), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 12.47, P<0.05). The first defecation time after operation in the experimental group was (29.51 ± 5.52) h, while in the control group was (61.48 ± 8.39) h, the difference between the two groups was significant ( t = -12.06, P<0.05). The postoperative enteral nutrition tolerance rate of the experimental group was 91.1% (51/56), which was higher than the 69.1%(38/55) in the control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 8.44, P<0.05). The serum total protein, albumin and prealbumin levels of the experimental group at discharge were (66.56 ± 5.15), (46.78 ± 7.62) g/L and (276.07 ± 53.57) mg/L, compared with the (60.27 ± 4.37), (39.12 ± 6.41) g/L and (230.14 ± 44.58) mg/L in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t = 6.66, 5.02, 4.91, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The implementation of precise oral nutrition guidance program is conducive to guiding the clinical practice of oral nutritional supplements in patients with colorectal cancer after surgery, improving patient compliance, reducing gastrointestinal intolerance, promoting intestinal function recovery, and improving nutritional status of patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To systematically evaluate the medication experience and needs of patients with oral anticancer drugs at home, providing reference for the formulation and implementation of home supervision measures for these patients.Methods:PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, CINAHL, CNKI, Wanfang database, VIP database and Chinese biomedical literature database were searched by computer to collect qualitative studies on medication experience and needs of patients with oral anticancer drugs at home. The retrieval period was from the database construction to May 1, 2021. The quality of the literature was evaluated by the Australian JBI qualitative research quality evaluation criteria for evidence-based health care centres, and the results were integrated by the pooled integration method of Meta-integration.Results:A total of 11 studies were included, 52 results were extracted, 13 categories were summarized and 4 integrated results were obtained: heavy negative psychological experience; undergo physical trials; a desire for outside support; adjust to the disease.Conclusions:According to the four aspects of experience and needs of patients with oral anticancer drugs at home, medical staff should guide them to establish health belief, improve disease perception and coping ability, and take measures to meet patients′ needs for knowledge, communication and social support through multiple channels.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the real experience of developing self-consciousness, self-discovery, self-identity crisis and self-cognition improvement of young cancer patients from the initial stage of diagnosis, and to provide reference for medical staff to construct the intervention mode of psychosocial support.Methods:Using phenomenological method in qualitative research, 14 young cancer patients aged 18-25 years from April 2019 to August 2020 in Jiangsu Cancer Hospital were interviewed in semi-structured way separately at three time points: initial diagnosis, 6 months after diagnosis and 12 months after diagnosis. 7-step Colaizzi analysis was used to analyze the data.Results:Three themes were extracted as following. The dilemma of self-cognition, self-identity biases and the exploration of self-identity.Conclusions:Attention should be paid to the psychological problems of young cancer patients at all stages, and meet the needs of patients to talk, cooperate with professional psychotherapists, encourage patients to recognize themselves, tap the inner positive power, so as to improve their sense of self-identity.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore and understand the influence of perceived professional benefits on oncology nurses′innovative behaviors. Methods Totally 943oncology nurses were selected to join thestudy, Using the general information questionnaire, nurses′ perceived professional benefits scale and innovative behaviors scale for investigation. Results The average score of oncology nurses′ perceived Professional Benefits Scale was (114.08 ± 16.45) points, the average score of oncology nurses′ innovative behaviors was (31.00 ± 7.00) points. The score of perceived professional benefits of oncology nurses was positively correlated with score of innovative behavior of nurses (r=0.472, P<0.01). Nurses position, level and relatives and friends identity,their own growth and team belonging in perceived professional benefits were the influencing factors of innovative behavior of oncology nurses (t=2.022-4.486, P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusion The perceived professional benefits of oncology nurses can play a positive role in promoting their innovative behaviors. Nursing managers should pay attention to improving perceived professional benefits of clinical nurses, promote their innovative behaviors and improve the quality of nursing services.
ABSTRACT
Objective To deeply understand the risk factors of lymphedema for patients with breast cancer after surgery. Methods The phenomenological method was applied in this study. Semi-structured interview was used to collected data from 9 female breast cancer patients with lymphedema after surgery in our hospital from June to September 2016 for generic analysis. Results The risk factors of lymphedema could be categorized into four themes:(1)choice of treatment is the primary cause:axillary lymph node dissection; radiotherapy; chemotherapy; (2)not paying enough attention to lymphedema:lacking the knowledge of lymphedema; imbalance of physical activities for the affected limb; lacking awareness of exercise and protection of the affected limb. Conclusions Axillary lymph node dissection after radical surgery for patients with breast cancer is the primary cause of lymphedema, and paying not enough attention is an important factor, especially lacking the consciousness of prevention, so the nurses should emphasize education about prevention of lymphedema after surgery for patients, to improve the consciousness of them to reduce the occurrence of lymphedema and its influence on their quality of life.
