Abstract:
Objective:To explore the influencing factors of the long-term quality of life(QOL).Methods:According to the standard of diagnosis of primary lung cancer, a total of 74 patients with primary lung cancer were included in the study, who were first diagnosed by pathology and /or cytology and /or clinic from 1 January 2010 to 30 June 2016 in Tangshan Third Hospital, Heibei Province, and whose data were analyzed retrospectively.The Chinese version of FACT-L (4.0) QOL questionnaire was used to evaluate the QOL in 74 patients with primary lung cancer who survived more than three years.Multivariate regression statistical method was used to analyze the main influencing factors.Results:All patients with long-term survival lung cancer were treated by operation, their average QOL score was ( 126.62±13.29). Age, type of medical insurance and clinical stage had significant influence on QOL ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the total QOL scores between<50-year-old group(138.18±13.92) and ≥50-<60-year-old group(138.18±13.92, 137.04±12.82)(all P>0.05), but they were higher than that in ≥60-year-old group (115.28 ±13.11) (all P<0.05). The QOL of residents′ medical insurance patients (117.92 ±13.13) was lower than that of employees′ medical insurance patients (142.69±13.07) ( t=10.849, P=0.002). The QOL scores of stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ (140.34 ±12.88, 133.31±12.07) had no significant difference, but which were higher than that of stage III (96.84 ±13.46) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Patients with long-term survival lung cancer after surgery could maintain a better QOL by early detection, timely surgery and constantly improving the medical security system to reduce the financial burden of patients.
