Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of standardized pain assessment and peer education on self-efficacy, quality of life and pain control of cancer pain patients.Methods:From January 2019 to January 2020, convenience sampling was used to select 162 inpatient cancer patients admitted to Henan Cancer Hospital as the research object. Patients were divided into observation group ( n=82) and control group ( n=80) based on the odd and even numbers of the patient's ward end number. Patients in control group received regular health education and traditional pain assessment. Observation group carried out standardized pain assessment and peer education. We compared self-efficacy, quality of life, pain control of two groups of patients before and after intervention. Results:Before intervention, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups of patients in terms of dimension scores and total scores of self-efficacy, quality of life ( P>0.05) . After intervention, dimension scores and total scores of self-efficacy and quality of life of cancer pain patients' pain between two groups were higher than those before intervention, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Dimension scores and total scores of self-efficacy and quality of life of cancer pain patients in observation group were higher than those in control group with statistical differences ( P<0.01) . The overall pain control effect of cancer pain patients in observation group was better than that in control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-3.721, P<0.01) . Conclusions:Standardized pain assessment and peer education applied to the pain management of cancer pain patients can effectively improve the pain control effect and self-efficacy as well as the quality of life.
