Abstract:
Objective:To summarize the best evidences for screening and evaluation of cancer-related fatigue in patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy and apply them to clinical nursing practice, so as to improve clinical nursing service, reduce the level of cancer-related fatigue and improve the quality of life of patients.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 48 patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy who were admitted to Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine in Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from May 6 to June 28, 2019 were selected as the control group, while 50 patients who were admitted from September 2 to October 30, 2019 were selected as the observation group. Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Practical Application of Clinical Evidence System (PACES) was used as a review tool to screen the detection rate of cancer-related fatigue of patients after the application of evidence and investigate the implementation rate of nurses' review standards. The scores of Nurses' Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Questionnaire on Cancer-related Fatigue Management and the Chinese version of European Organization for Research and Treatment Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 V3.0, EORTC-C30 V3.0 (EORTC-C30 V3.0) were compared before and after the use of evidence. The t test was used to compare the measurement data between the two groups, and the χ 2 test or Fisher's exact test was used to compare the enumeration data. Results:The implementation rates of review indicators after the application of evidence reached 86% (43/50) to 100% (50/50) . After application of the evidence, scores of knowledge, attitude and practice dimensions of Nurses' Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Questionnaire on Cancer-related Fatigue Management were respectively (99.50±1.37) , (39.06±1.00) and (30.69±1.08) , which were all higher than those before the evidence was applied, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-16.023, -7.258, -19.769; P<0.05) . The detection rates of mild, moderate and severe fatigue in the observation group were 52% (26/50) , 26% (13/50) and 6% (3/50) , respectively. The scores of body, role, cognitive, emotional function and general health status in the Chinese version of EORTC-C30 V3.0 in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, while the score of fatigue dimension was lower than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-3.193, -2.487, -3.743, -2.202, -1.067, -3.100, 3.273; P<0.05) . Conclusions:The best evidence for screening and evaluation of cancer-related fatigue in patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer can provide evidence-based evidence for clinical fatigue management, and its clinical application can improve the identification and management of cancer-related fatigue, standardize nurse behavior, and improve the quality of life of patients.
