Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of guided imagery relaxation therapy on pain self-efficacy and quality of life in patients with gynecological malignant tumor.Methods:A total of 94 gynecological malignant tumor patients were assigned to study group and control group by random digits table method with 47 cases each, the control group received routine nursing, while the study group carried out guided imagery relaxation therapy for 4 weeks. The pain degree, pain self-efficacy and quality of life was assessed by Chinese version of Brief Pain Inventory (BPI-C), Chronic Pain Self-efficacy Scale (CPSS) and Quality of Life Questionnaire-core 30 (QLQ-C30), before and 4-week after intervention.Results:Compared to the control group, the scores of pain right now, pain at worst in the 24 hours, pain on the average of BPI-C and symptom scales, single items of QLQ-C30 were (3.76±0.54), (4.37±1.39), (3.63±0.73), (32.40±8.69), (34.34±5.81) points in the study group, and (4.18±0.93), (5.18±1.75), (4.23±0.97), (37.72±6.37), (38.54±6.84) points in the control group, the differences were statistically significant( t values were 2.415-3.287, all P <0.05). The scores of self-efficacy for pain management, self-efficacy for physical function, self-efficacy for coping with symptoms, total CPSS total scale and function scales, global QOL scale were (17.43±5.50), (27.25±4.40), (29.76±6.46), (74.44±9.21), (72.73±17.74), (64.02±11.03) points in the study group, and (14.68±3.53), (22.60±4.01), (24.87±4.03), (62.14±7.10), (65.60±13.89), (57.23±15.60) points in the control group, the differences were statistically significant( t values were 2.105-7.036, P <0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions:Guided imagery relaxation therapy can alleviate cancerous pain and promote pain self-efficacy and quality of life of patients with gynecological malignant tumor.
