Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of oxygen therapy combined with recombinant epidermal growth factor on cervical cancer radioactive dermatitis. Methods From October 2013 to October 2015 in Guangxi tumor hospital, 70 stage IIIB cervical cancer patients with radioactive dermatitis from intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) were enrolled in the study, 35 cases with dermatitis occurring on odd date as the study group and another 35 with dermatitis occurring on even date as the control group. The former were treated with oxygen therapy combined with epidermal growth factor and the latter with recombinant epidermal growth factor alone. The two groups were compared in terms of curative effect, wound healing time and pain. Results The total effective rate of the research group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.01). The healing time of the research group was significantly shorter than that of the control group (P < 0.001). Conclusion The oxygen therapy combined with recombinant epidermal growth factor is more effective in improving the cure rate, shorten healing time of dermatitis, reduce the pains from radiotherapy and help them through the radiotherapy process.
