Abstract:
Objective To investigate the information requirement level of thyroid cancer patients during the perioperative period, and to explore the relevant influencing factors.Methods A total of 94 thyroid cancer patients during perioperative period who were treated from June 2015 to June 2016 in our department were recruited in the study using convenience sampling. The patients were investigated using the general data and clinical data questionnaire, Mishel Uncertainty in Illness Scale (MUIS) and Information Preference Questionnaire for Cancer Patients.Results The total score of information requirement in patients with thyroid cancer during perioperative period was (43.05±4.52), which was at a high level. Multiple regression analysis showed that the education level, disease uncertainty and gender were the main influencing factors of information requirement level in the patients with thyroid cancer(P<0.05).Conclusions The information requirement level in the patients with thyroid cancer during perioperative period was relatively high. Targeted information support should be given to the patients based on their different educational levels, disease uncertainty levels and genders in the clinic.
