Methods A total of 84 cases of liver cancer ( during the period between April 2012 and April 2014 ) were selected from multiple hospital of Zaozhuang and randomly divided into research group and control group, with each group 42 cases. The patients of control group was given the routine nursing care, while the patients of research group received 6 months continuous transitional nursing care that operated by medical staff members. The living quality of life score (QOL), self-rating depression scale (SDS) score, and level of compliance to chemotherapy were compared between two groups. Results The score of SDS in the research group was lower than score in the control group ( P<0. 05) except for the somatization disorder. The score of QOL in the research group was higher than that in the control group (P<0. 05). The level of compliance of chemotherapy in the research group was significantly better than than that in the control group (P<0. 05).
