Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effect of quality control circle(QCC)on reducing the incidence of moderate or severe malnutrition in gastric cancer patients under chemotherapy.
Methods:Before the activity (February to March 2016), 146 gastric cancer patients under chemotherapy were selected as the control group, and regular nutrition nursing (dietary guidance and regular nutrition-related health lectures) was given. After the activity (February to March 2017), 139 gastric cancer patients under chemotherapy were selected as QCC group, and the standard intervention of quality control circle was implemented. The nutritional status of patients before and after improvement was compared.
Results:After finding the cause and formulating and implementing the measures, the 24-hour consultation rate, the incomplete remission rate of nausea/vomiting, the incidence of cancer anorexia, and the rate of missed visits in QCC group were significantly different with those in control group (P<0.05). The incidence of moderate or severe malnutrition was 16.55% in QCC group and 65.07% in control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01).
Conclusions:The quality control circle activity can effectively reduce the incidence of moderate or severe malnutrition and improve the quality of life in gastric cancer patients under chemotherapy. It can also improve the self-discipline and initiative of medical staff and improve the quality of medical care.
