Abstract:
Objective To investigate and analyze the perioperative nursing of patients with breast cancer, and explore the effectiveness of the application of mind map in perioperative nursing care of patients with breast cancer. Methods The cluster sampling method was employed, and 265 patients with breast cancer receiving radical mastectomy treatment from department of general surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Liaoning Medical University were gathered according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 137 cases were assigned to test group (May 2014 to April 2015), and 128 cases were assigned to control group (May 2013 to April 2014 ). Nursing work was improved by establishing research group, discussing the design of perioperative nursing mind map and applying mind maps. Effect was evaluated by evaluating the incidence of postoperative complications in patients with breast cancer, the quality of patient′s life and the patient′s satisfaction. Results The incidence of bleeding, seroma, flap necrosis, upper extremity swelling and other postoperative complications of patients with breast cancer in test group was 26.28%(36/128),and that in control group was 73.44%(94/137). The differences between the two groups were of statistical significance (χ2=58.891, P<0.01). The perioperative survival quality scores of physiology, society/family, emotions, function, additions and total in the test group were (2.43 ± 1.09), (2.64±0.97), (2.85±0.97), (2.43±1.09), (2.22±1.12),(2.34±1.13), and that in the control group were (1.89± 1.09), (1.89 ± 1.06), (1.78 ± 0.92), (1.89 ± 1.09), (1.76 ± 1.05), (2.00 ± 1.09)respectively. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant (t=4.664-10.829,P<0.01). The proportion of patient satisfaction in test group was 94.89%(130/137),and that in control group was 82.03%(105/128), respectively. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant (χ2=10.900, P < 0.01). Conclusions Application of mind map in nursing intervention is able to help nurses to grasp the key content and direction of perioperative nursing on patients with breast cancer. More importantly, not only can it improved patients′quality of life and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications, but also increases patients′satisfaction.
