Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of informed consent on emotion and immunologic function in patients with laryngopharynx cancer.Methods Sixty patients with laryngopharynx cancer were divided into group A and group B by random digits table with 30 cases each group.In group A patients were informed consent,and in group B family were informed consent.The self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) scores,as well as cellular immunity function were measured before informed consent and 2 weeks after surgery.Results The SAS,SDS scores and levels of cellular immunity function between two groups,differences was no statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).The SAS,SDS scores 2 weeks after surgery in group A were significantly less than those in group B [(43.17 ± 7.63) scores vs.(47.84 ± 8.46) scores,(37.43 ± 8.69) scores vs.(42.67 ± 9.82) scores,P ＜ 0.05].The CD3,CD4,NK cells 2 weeks after surgery in group A were significantly higher than those in group B (0.5762 ±0.0941 vs.0.5160 ± 0.0821,0.3832 ± 0.0751 vs.0.3140 ± 0.0561,0.1521 ± 0.0491 vs.0.1163 ± 0.0422,P ＜ 0.05),CD8 and CD4/CD8 between two groups differences was no statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The informed consent for patients with laryngopharynx cancer may relieve emotional disorders and avoid immunologic function decreasing.
