Conclusion Patients with lung cancer were discharged from the hospital with a higher level of guidance ,and the content of dis‐charge guidance from patients with lung cancer was far from meeting the requirements .It should be based on the age ,education and living style of patients with lung cancer ,especially for strengthening the guidance of discharged patients with PICC/CVC ,improving the quality of discharge guidance and promoting the rehabilitation of lung cancer patients .
