Abstract:
Objective To investigate the application effect of a graded management program of hand-foot syndrome(HFS)in patients with breast cancer who received chemotherapy.Methods Convenience sampling method was adopted to select breast cancer patients who received chemotherapy in the breast surgery department of a tertiary A hospital in Wuhan.According to the time of admission,55 patients admitted from April 2022 to September 2022 were included in the experimental group,in which the graded management program was carried out according to the occurrence of HFS.55 patients admitted from October 2021 to March 2022 were included in the control group,in which the routine chemotherapy care was carried out.Interventions in both groups lasted until 3 days after the last chemotherapy.The incidence of HFS and its impact on quality of life 3 days after the final chemotherapy were compared between the 2 groups.Results The incidence of HFS was 34.55%in the experimental group and 58.18%in the control group,and there were significant differences in the incidence and grade of HFS between the 2 groups(P<0.05).The total score of life quality scale in the experimental group was 15.00(13.00,17.00)and 19.00(17.00,22.00)in the control group.The life quality of patients in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.001).Conclusion The graded management program for breast cancer patients with HFS can reduce the incidence and grade of HFS,and can help to improve the quality of life in breast cancer patients who received chemotherapy.
