ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effect of cognitive intervention based on conception of knowledge and belief on cognition level and negative moods in the lung cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. Methods Toally 84 lung cancer patients hospitalized in our hospital from March 2014 to November 2015 were equally divided into the study group and the control group by a random digit table. The control group received the traditional model of nursing, while the study group was treated with cognition intervention based on conception of knowledge and belief as well as the same routine care as in the control group for 4 weeks. Before and after 4 weeks intervention, the two groups were compared in terms of their knowledge, belief, behaviors, self care ability, depression and anxiety. Results Before intervention, there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of their knowledge, belief, behaviors, self care ability, depression and anxiety (all P>0.05). After the intervention, the scores on knowledge, belief, behavior and self care ability in the study group were all significantly higher than those of the control group and the scores on anxiety and depression were both statistically significantly lower than those of the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion The cognition intervention based on conception of knowledge and belief on cognition level and negative moods to the lung cancer patients is effective in improvement of their knowledge, belief, behavior as well as in alleviation of their anxiety and depression.
