Abstract:
Objective To assess the effect of relaxation training combined with listening to music on postoperative rehabilitation of patients with liver cancer. Methods Patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria (52 cases) were divided into the experimental group and the control group with 26 cases in each group.The control group received routine postoperative nursing.The experimental group was given relaxation training combined with listening to music based upon routine nursing.The pain degree,time of ambulation,recovery of gastrointestinal function and bladder function and related postoperative complica-tions were compared between the two groups. Results The experimental group had less pain,earlier time of ambulation,shorter time for recovery of gastrointestinal function, indwelling gastric tube and urinary catheter(P < 0.01 ).Incidence rate of incision,bile leakage and intra-abdominal hemorrhage were not statis-tically different between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion Relaxation training combined with lis-tening to music can facilitate the postoperative rehabilitation process of patients with liver cancer.
