Abstract:
Objective:To summarize the best evidence for radiotherapy injury prevention and nursing in patients with advanced esophageal cancer undergoing radiotherapy.Methods:Evidence for radiotherapy injury prevention and nursing in patients with advanced esophageal cancer undergoing radiotherapy were searched through Australian Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Evidence-Based Health Care Center Database, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, National Guideline Clearinghouse, Registered Nurses ' Association of Ontario, New Zealand Guidelines Group, PubMed, Cochrane Library, UpToDate, China Biomedical Literature Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang Data. The search period was from the establishment of the database to January 31, 2022. Evidence retrieval, and evidence extraction were performed by 2 researchers. Evidence was graded and recommended according to the JBI evidence pre-grading system (2014 edition) . Results:A total of 11 articles were included, including 2 systematic reviews, 2 guidelines, 2 systematic assessments, 3 randomized controlled trials and 2 quasi-experimental studies. A total of 28 pieces of evidence were collected from 8 aspects, including oral mucositis, taste change or loss, malnutrition, radiation-induced esophagitis, radiation pneumonitis, radiation dermatitis, nausea and vomiting, and bone marrow suppression.Conclusions:The evidence extracted in this study can provide an evidence-based basis for prevention and nursing of radiotherapy injury in patients with advanced esophageal cancer, and hospitals can transform and apply the evidence according to their actualities.
