Objective To evaluate the nutrition intervention on advanced colorectal cancer chemotherapy patients quality of life. Methods 70 colorectal cancer patients (NRS 2002 score was more than or equal to 3 points) with chemotherapy from January 1st, 2013 to June 31th, 2014 were collected. The patients were randomly divided into intervention group (35 patients) and the control group (35 patients). The intervention group received personalized recipe which was developed by a team containing nurse specialist, chief psychiatrist, family members and patients themselves. The control group was treated with a normal diet guidance. The two groups of patients when they were treated after the second days of the first admission (before intervention), the end of the 6th courses of chemotherapy and the 12th courses of chemotherapy were evaluated by the European Organization For Research and Treatment Quality of Life Questionnaire-C30 (EORTC QLQ-C30). Nutritional indicators and the total life condition of the two groups at different time were compared. Results There were 5 cases off in the intervention group and the control group respectively. After the 12th courses of chemotherapy, the intervention group serum albumin (ALB) and the mean serum prealbumin (PAB) were improved 4.10 and 74.14; and the control group were-0.09 and-0.08, there were significant differences between the two groups (t=3.202, 3.623, P<0.05).The total quality of life of the intervention group was 25.87 points while the control group was 35.13 points, there was significant difference between the two groups (t=3.321, P<0.05). The intervention group got the total health status was (72.28 ± 20.97) points after the intervention, and before the intervention was (56.67 ± 14.08) points. Meanwhile the total health status was statistically significant (t=7.01, P<0.05). Conclusions There is a significant nutritional improvement in colorectal cancer patients with chemotherapy after nutritional therapy leading by nurse specialist, which is worthy of application.
