Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of tracking nursing model on nutritional status of patients with esophageal cancer and radiotherapy.Methods From January 2015 to January 2016,totally 92 patients with esophageal cancer admitted in our hospital and treated with radiotherapy were selected as the research object. Patients were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group according to random number table,with 46 cases in each group. Patients in the control group were given routine nursing,while patients in the observation group received tracking nursing model. Six months after nursing intervention,the subjective global assessment (SGA) grading assessment,biochemical indicators and anthropometric indicators of patients were compared between two groups.Results After intervention,the incidence of SGA-C of patients in the observation group were 4.35%,which was significantly lower than 15.23% in the control group (P<0.05). After intervention,the total cholesterol,triglyceride and blood phosphorus of patients in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,while the albumin and prealbumin of patients in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). After intervention,the body mass index (BMI), triceps skin fold (TSF) and mid-arm muscle circumference (MAMC) of patients in the observation group were higher than patients in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusions Tracking nursing model given to patients with esophageal cancer can significantly improve patients' nutritional status and their health indicators.
