Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of logotherapy on self-perceived burden and hope in cervical cancer patients after surgery and to provide reference for improving the quality of life in cervical cancer patients after surgery.Methods A total of 164 patients receiving surgery for cervical cancer in the 2nd Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between October 2016 and January 2018 were selected by convenient sampling and randomly divided into the observation group (n=81) and the control group (n=83) according to the random number table. Patients in the control group received conventional nursing care, while patients in the observation group received logotherapy on the basis of conventional nursing care. The Self-Perceived Burden Scale (SPBS) and Hope Level Scale were used to evaluate the self-perceived burden and hope in the patients in the two groups.Results There was statistical difference in the self-perceived burden and hope scores between the two groups (P<0.05), and the self-perceived burden of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, the total score and scores in different dimensions of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusions Logotherapy can help cervical cancer patients to experience and discover the meaning of life in different contexts of disease, reduce the self-perceived burden and improve the hope level, which is worth promoting in clinical practice.
