The prospective study was used and the patients were divided into the treatment group (42 cases) and the control group (41 cases) by random digits table method. The control group received routine nursing intervention for thyroid cancer surgery patients including health education, basic nursing, prevention of complications, follow-up, etc., and the treatment group was combined with social support and coping style intervention.
