Abstract:
Objective To investigate the adverse reactions by stereotactic body radiation therapy(SBRT)for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma and summarize nursing experience.Methods Forty-one patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma from the radiation department of Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from July 2010 to May 2012 were enrolled in this retrospective study.The adverse reactions were closely observed and the patients were given pertinent nursing.Results The effectiveness rate was 56.2%.During the therapy,36 patients developed nausea/vomiting of grade 1-2,taking up 87.8%,18 had grade 1-3 elevation of liver enzymes,taking up 43.9%,16 had grade 1-2 decrease of white blood cells,taking up 39.0%,8 had grade 1 anemia,taking up 19.5%and 21 had grade 1-2 decrease of blood platelet,taking up 51.2%.The adverse reactions were contained satisfactorily through careful observations and pertinent nursing.Conclusions The toxic reactions by SBRT are nausea,vomiting,enzymes elevation and decrease of whole blood cell.Therefore,nurses need to observe these toxic reactions carefully and give pertinent care to the patients so as to prevent the complications,especially radiation-induced liver injury.
