Abstract:
Objective? To explore the effects of exercise-psychology-sleep nursing among esophageal cancer patients. Methods? From June 2016 to September 2018, we selected 200 esophageal cancer inpatients with intermediate and advanced stage in Surgery Department at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University by convenience sampling. All of the patients were divided into control group and experimental group according to admission order, 100 cases in each group. Control group carried out routine nursing. On the basis of routine nursing, experimental group implemented exercise-psychology-sleep nursing. After intervention, the intervention effects were compared with the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) and the Revised Piper Fatigue Scale (PFS-R) between two groups. Results? One month after intervention, the scores of function and general health of experimental group were (62.11±3.22) and (67.23±3.74) respectively higher than those of control group; the scores of symptoms and specificity of experimental group were (42.12±2.13) and (43.75±3.21) respectively lower than those of control group; the differences were all statistical (t=101.159,15.053,22.910,3.347;P＜0.01). The scores of cancer related fatigue of experimental group and control group were (3.36±1.25) and (5.14±1.04) respectively with a statistical difference (t=10.663,P＜0.01). Conclusions The application of exercise-psychology-sleep nursing in esophageal cancer patients can improve quality of life and relieve cancer related fatigue of patients which is worthy of being widely used in clinical application.
